Love is in the Air

Hallmark has deemed February to be the month of love. They quite literally call it, “Loveuary,” to really drive the point home. Valentine’s Day is here, despite many people willing it out of existence. So don’t forget to grab a box of chocolates (NOT the coconut filled ones) and an overpriced love letter–written by a ghost writer who just so happens to perfectly capture your deepest, truest emotions–before your local CVS looks like a ransacked Walmart the night before an impending snow storm. 

But this time of year, it’s not just our love lives that are heating up. With the weather getting warmer day by day, both you and your furry friends will be craving more time outside. Once the temperature breaks 50 degrees, you may even feel like finally  waking from your winter hibernation and spending time with your dog outside–not merely standing in your doorway in a thermal bathrobe with a leash around your wrist. There is no better way to spend time outdoors with your beloved pets than within a Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence. Your time in your yard will be leash free, and most importantly stress free. You won’t believe the amount of newfound free time you’ll gain. Who knows, you may just have enough time to express your love for your family year-round, not just in February! So just remember, love is always in the air, and so is our unit’s signal. Keep your pets safe and filled with love this year with a hidden fence from Dogwatch of Litchfield County.

Happy Groundhog Day!

It’s that magical time of year again! Dry January is finished (whether you did or not), gym front desk workers can finally complete an entire episode of The Office between towel requests, and “meaning to begin that new juice cleanse” is a vague and distant memory. Almost as distant as that Halloween candy you forgot you still have in your sock drawer–it tastes better off season anyway. It’s February in the northeast. We’re officially back to reality. 

While the month that promises immense change and improvement is over, fear not! Contrary to the popular belief of marketing departments across the US, you can actually instill progressive change in your life at ANY time. So why not choose now? We are on the precipice of arguably the greatest holiday of the year–Groundhog Day. I know this is a bold claim, but I am here to back it up. 

Why is Groundhog Day, handsdown, the greatest holiday of them all? Besides the fact that our entire nation looks to a tiny rodent for the prediction of our collective future, because of Bill Murray, this holiday also reminds us  just how much we despise monotony. Repetitive daily routines are a drag for everyone. Especially when they include asking your neighbors if you can run through their yard again, screaming for Coco, who has run away for the fifth time this week. There are only so many times one can make this request. So if January flew by faster than you can say Punxsutawney Phil, use February as your new month of betterment. Improve not only your life, but your pet’s life as well, and install a Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence. We are all sick and tired of hearing “I Got You Babe,” as your partner dashes through the backyard with a flashlight and a whistle, Sonny and Cher included.

Who Let the Dogs Out?

There is no worse feeling than pulling into your driveway, or peering out your kitchen window, and frantically asking the question, “Who let the dogs out?!?” Once unsecured outside, your dogs are mere seconds from dashing down the street, weaving in and out of traffic, converging with countless unpredictable animals—or even worse, unpredictable humans—before perhaps eventually making contact with an unforeseen bumper. There is no telling what our furry friends may encounter once out of our sight. The risks are not worth the reward, because, quite frankly there is no reward! While our dogs certainly do serve as the emotional support heroes in our lives, we shouldn’t confuse them with actual superheroes. Unfortunately, there is no command to “fly over that oncoming bus,” or, “steer clear, that raccoon definitely has rabies!” In fact, if my 130-pound dog was to encounter a butterfly he wasn’t familiar with, the white of his eyes would become increasingly apparent before relieving himself on my feet.      

However, not all hope is lost in this situation. There is a simple solution to avoid running down your street screaming, “Pudding!!!” at the top of your lungs—a precious pet name in theory; however, frantically screaming it without context while in a sprint may gravely concern your neighbors. A Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence will save you from this embarrassment. It will also save your family the endless arguments following the dreaded question, “who let the dogs out??” Post-hidden fence installation, your dogs will remain safely where they belong, and for the exact amount of time desired. It will save you time, energy, and most importantly face with your neighbors, all while keeping your dog safe within her/his boundaries. This is certainly a “risk” that is far worth the reward. And while your dog may not be a real life superhero, we won’t argue if you claim we are. 😉

Let’s Get Invisible

You may be wondering, why should I get a hidden fence over a regular old standard fence? Aren’t things that are visible much more appealing than those that are not? And to that, all I have to say is, I have yet to see The Tooth Fairy in person; but if I did, that would definitely make the entire process of losing a tooth far less magical, and far more creepy than the faceless routine currently in existence. Unlike The Tooth Fairy, you can gladly keep all of your teeth in exchange for a Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence. The perks of our fences are seemingly endless!

What are the benefits to a Dogwatch of Litchfield Country hidden fence over a traditional fence?

  1. More Cost Effective
    A hidden fence is undoubtedly less expensive than a traditional fence. We also have a wonderful warranty program to ensure you are satisfied with our product and services. Even compared to other hidden fence companies, with Dogwatch of Litchfield County, you will save incomparable amounts of money on through utilizing our two-year batteries for our collars. We are happy to discuss how you may get a quote for your particular yard, today!
  2. Quicker Installation
    Installing our hidden fence takes only a matter of hours! Even the largest yards can be completed in one day of installation. This is much faster than a traditional fence, which could take several weeks to install. Your fence can be installed, and your dog can be fully trained, in less time than it takes to solely install a traditional fence.
  3. More Flexibility in Fence Placement
    There are very few constraints around where we can place the underground wire. We can even make garden loops to keep your pets out of your more delicate spaces! Let us know where you would like the wire placed, and we will work to accommodate your needs. Book an estimate for your yard here.
  4. Will Not Obstruct Your View
    There is nothing worse than living in a home with a beautiful view only to block it with an unappealing containment fence. With a Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence, you can keep your views perfectly clear, while keeping your pet safe. We work on waterfront properties regularly!
  5. Better Containment for Your Pets
    A Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence is much more reliable in containing your pets than a traditional fence. Dogs cannot dig under, or jump over, our boundaries. Each boundary is set to your pet’s particular tendencies and needs. Even if you lose power, there is an automatic battery backup to ensure that your pet is always safe.
  6. Zero Hassle for Humans Crossing Over
    A hidden fence allows your pets to remain contained, while the humans in your life are able to move about freely. People can easily cross the boundaries without any hesitation. This eliminates the fear of someone leaving a gate open and allowing a beloved pet to escape!
  7. Deters Intruders
    Nothing seems less appealing than messing with a home with a seemingly loose dog running around. By giving your pets the ability to roam free throughout your yard, you may keep your home safe from any funny business!

In choosing a Dogwatch of Litchfield County hidden fence, you are choosing a lifetime of reliability and ease. We will work with you one-on-one to tailor our products to your specific needs.
