Meet Bob Jacobsen

Bob Jacobsen runs Dog Guard of Sioux Falls as a family operation, and he custom-designs every system around the customer's pets, yard, and household rather than installing one standard layout. Based in Sioux Falls, he has served southeastern South Dakota since 2016, covering 21 counties from Brookings down to Yankton and Union. He also offers evening and weekend appointments, so a fence consultation does not have to wait for a weekday.

Dog fence questions, answered for Dog Guard of Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Where does Dog Guard of Sioux Falls install underground dog fences?

Dog Guard of Sioux Falls is based in Sioux Falls and installs underground dog fences for homeowners across South Dakota. Coverage centers on the Sioux Falls metro and the surrounding communities of eastern South Dakota, and the dealer has been installing Dog Guard systems since 2016. If you live farther out, reach out through this page and your Local Pro will confirm whether your address sits inside the service area.

Do underground dog fences make sense for open, windy lots around Sioux Falls?

Yes, open prairie lots are where a buried-wire fence shines. Many newer neighborhoods on the edges of Sioux Falls have wide, treeless yards with no physical fencing, and strong prairie winds make some above-ground options impractical. The wire is buried, so there is nothing for the wind to rattle, blow over, or knock down. Your Local Pro shapes the boundary to the lot, whether it is a tidy suburban rectangle or several open acres.

Can Dog Guard of Sioux Falls install an underground fence in winter?

Winter installations are possible, even in a Sioux Falls winter. Deep ground frost limits trenching for part of the year, so in the coldest months the wire can be laid on top of the snow and secured, then buried once the ground thaws in spring. The system works the same either way, and your dog's training can start right away instead of waiting for the ground to soften.

What happens when Dog Guard of Sioux Falls installs a fence?

Installation and the first training session usually happen in one visit. Your Local Pro buries the wire along the boundary you agree on, sets training flags so your dog has a visual cue, fits the lightweight receiver collar, and adjusts the correction level to your dog's temperament. You then get clear guidance for short daily sessions over the following weeks that teach your dog exactly where the line is.

Who services a Dog Guard system in South Dakota after installation?

Your local dealer does, not a distant call center. Dog Guard of Sioux Falls provides service, from locating and repairing a damaged wire to adjusting the boundary after landscaping, supplying replacement batteries, and adding a collar when a new dog joins the family. The dealer can also take over service on an existing Dog Guard system, including one installed for a previous owner of your home.

Is a buried-wire fence better than a GPS collar on the South Dakota prairie?

On open ground, a buried wire gives your dog a boundary that never moves. GPS collars rely on a satellite fix that can drift, which matters when a county road runs just beyond the yard. A Dog Guard system has no monthly fees, and the collar battery lasts about a month, compared with about a day for typical GPS collars. Dog Guard does not make a GPS product, and the fixed wire is the reason why.
