My husband wanted chain link or stockade, but I felt those options were too costly. They ship to anywhere in the US, but are based in West Haven, so we opted to have our fence professionally installed.Ĭhoosing a fence proved to be a hot button issue in my house. I chose a non-electric, low visibility fence by Pet Playgrounds, a local installer here in CT. Adam Boardman is a 2010 graduate of Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, a member of the AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) and the MVMA (Massachusetts Veterinary Medical Association).Īfter a long wait, I finally got my backyard fenced in for my dogs last week. I am very thankful what Victor and Pet Playgrounds were able to do for us and would recommend them to any pet owner to keep their pet safely in their yard.ĭr. In the 6 months since the new fence was installed, there have been ZERO escapes, and believe me, our dog has tried. It is much more visually appealing than what I had tried to do. This showed creativity and an understanding that all properties are different. They incorporated my existing fencing and even trees along the fence line with the new fencing and it looks fantastic. At installation they were on time (actually early) and worked hard even though it was November and cold. They allowed me to visit a fence installation for another client (with her permission of course) so I could see their product in person. Victor Boemmels was very professional and provided accurate estimates for the work. They were the only fencing company that specifically focused on fencing for dogs and to our surprise, was willing to take a job anywhere in New England (they are based out of Connecticut and we live in Massachusetts). After an exhaustive search on the internet, we discovered Pet Playgrounds. Also, I simply don’t like the idea of shocking my pet. Although effective for many pets, I did not think it would be effective for our dog. We considered the electric fence but decided against it. Our backyard resembled a prison yard, and still our dog managed to find ways to escape. I made modifications to our fence every time our dog exploited one of it’s many weaknesses. I am a local veterinarian and I was constantly driving through the neighborhood calling for my lost dog. Mostly, we were worried about her safety but it was also very embarrassing. Over the fence, under the fence, she would find a way to get out to chase the deer running through the woods behind our house. One of our dogs is an escape artist and kept escaping our fenced in yard.
