Testimonial From A Guiding Eyes Working Dog Owner

Thanks to Dave and Sharon Wingfield at Hudson Valley Dog Watch, my dogs are getting the outdoor activity they yearn for during this snowiest of winters. Since I am blind it is difficult to take my dogs outdoors to play off leash to play. If I over throw the toy they may run into the road to retrieve it. And no matter how well trained my dogs may be it only takes one time to get hit by a car.

It takes years of training to prepare a guide dog to be paired with a blind person, yet it will only take a few things to ruin his working ability. The point I want to convey is not only how wonderful it is to have the freedom to be outdoors with my dogs off leash and not worry about them going into the road, but more importantly that it is safe and my dogs look forward to putting their Dogwatch Hiden Fence collars on to go out. It has had no negative effects on my guide dog's work abilities. He is not timid or afraid to go out the door. In fact, when we first had the Dogwatch Hidden Fence installed, and the flags were up, my golden would go over to them and nudge the flags when he was on the outside of the boundary without the collar. He even peed on the flags a few times as to say, "So there! I got you too!"

I highly recommend Hudson Valley Dog Watch Hidden Fence Systems. Dave Wingfield is an impressive trainer. Working with him was like working with the expert trainers at Guiding Eyes for the Blind. If I can say that the Dogwatch Hidden Fence is safe for my guide dog than it is safe for yours. Stop hesitating and call Dave and Sharon at Hudson Valley Dog Watch Hidden Fence Systems. You'll be impressed too.

Dear Hudson Valley DogWatch......

Just want to let you know that our 8 year old dog watch fence has been so wonderful! Dave, your training on the day it was installed really made a big difference! You told us Bailey would go out once for sure and to call you. She did go out in the first month. We called you and we did what you said. In 8 years she has never gone out again!! Neither squirrels, nor dogs, nor deer, nor even electricity outages or forgetting her collar have made a difference! She is so conditioned to stay in the yard!

I just wanted to say thank you. In a day when it is so easy to be ripped off, your fence and your services have been worth every penny they cost - and more. You can use me as a reference any time!

Hope all is well with you.
Sincerely,
Joyce McGraw

Dear Northwest Connecticut DogWatch......

DogWatch Dave put in my system over 7 years ago and as my dog family grew, they grew with me! I live on a horse farm and now have over 15 acres fenced in and four happy dogs who stay within that area thanks to Dave and DogWatch. Every dog accepted the training within days and they stay put! The system is extremely reliable and the only issues I have ever had were one lost collar (never found!) and two lightning strikes. Dave has always responded immediately to any issues or questions. My dogs are all German Shorthairs and English Pointers, and if any dog were to run a fence chasing prey, it would be them, but they have always respected the fence. In short, I always know my dogs are safe and at home, and Dave is always there to answer any questions. I recommend DogWatch Dave when you absolutely, positively have to keep your dogs at home!

Dear Northwest Connecticut DogWatch......

I purchased the containment system to protect our Ridgeback puppy and our new shelter dog from running off of our seven-acre property and I was so impressed with, not only the system, but the service that Dave and his team provided us. Dave is obviously a qualified dog-trainer and understands how to quickly, and efficiently, teach the dogs about the property boundaries and understands the dog's response to the system so that the settings can be set for that individual dog.

After our great experience with the containment system, we also purchased the "Big Leash" Remote Trainer for the Ridgeback and, within a day or two, she stopped tackling running children and listened and learned the commands we were trying to teach her . It saved us a ton of money on the trainer that we were about to hire. We also bought a few "Skedaddle" systems to keep her from counter-surfing. We move them around as we need them (placing one on a table outside when we have food on it; another in front of a doorway when we don't want her to enter a specific room) and, after our last Ridgeback ruled our life with his food obsessions, we are so relieved that we do not have to deal with that this time around.

In addition to the amazing products, Dave and his team have the most amazing follow-up consultations I have ever seen in a company. The experience is not just one training session and a manual. They have extensive follow-up calls to see how things are going and their staff is professional and reliable. This is probably what separates them for many of the other companies out there.

Dear Hudson Valley DogWatch......

Why did we not do this years ago?? Both our Labs couldn't be happier being able to be out all day and and guarding the property. After the initial training, we only had one incident where they chased the neighbor's dog through the boundary. They weren't pleased with the reward!! Since then they have never made an attempt to leave and its been over a year. With such a large area we weren't sure it would work but Bean, (now 17 months) and very much the puppy, won't get close. Good old Jet (12 years) is now a home body and we no longer worry where he is. You product is very reliable and we are happy it stands up to the rigors of working Labradors. Even the inside sensor keeps them in their specified area. So far so good. We want to thank you and your team so much. It works for us and we have peace of mind.

Thank you both again. We have recommended you to several friends.
