Who do I call before digging for an electric dog fence in Nevada?
+
−
Nevada uses USA North 811, formally Underground Service Alert of Northern California and Nevada. You reach it by dialing 811 at least two working days and no more than 28 calendar days before digging. Utilities then mark their lines. Private lines like drip irrigation, pool equipment wiring, and landscape lighting are not marked, so point those out to whoever installs your fence.
Does Dog Guard have a Local Pro in Las Vegas or Reno?
+
−
Not at the moment. Dog Guard does not currently have a Local Pro based in Nevada. Because every system is professionally installed and trained by a local expert, your best move is to call the Home Office at (800) 865-0495 and ask about options for your address. Current Dog Guard owners in Nevada can also reach the Home Office for support and to order Dog Guard batteries.
Can you bury a dog fence wire in Las Vegas caliche?
+
−
Caliche is a real consideration, and it is exactly why professional installation matters. Around Las Vegas, calcium carbonate can cement the soil into a layer that feels like concrete under a shovel, and many homeowners only find it when they dig for a tree or irrigation line. An experienced installer evaluates the ground and plans the wire route around hard spots, gravel beds, and drip lines. Ask the Home Office about options for your yard.
Are "invisible" dog fences allowed in Nevada HOA communities?*
+
−
Often yes, though your HOA's rules are what count. Nevada has around 3,850 community associations with roughly 1.3 million residents, and many Las Vegas Valley neighborhoods already have block walls and strict rules about adding anything visible. An underground fence adds nothing above ground, which can help, for example in front yards or desert landscaping. Check your CC&Rs and ask your architectural review committee before installation.
