After many DIY attempts the curved fence extension has been the solution keeping our tall hound dog from climbing over the fence! It has been several months and he has about given up!
This looks and works excellent. We never thought our puppy now 45 pound dog would still be fitting through the metal fence. But we had to now make a more permanent fix and got this. We were putting up green constriction type plastic from the hardware store but that looked tacky. We got this and you can barely tell it’s there but works perfectly!! Highly recommend!
We love having this enclosure for our dogs, we rent so it was perfect to put up and be able to take down when we leave, and my huskies have a blast running around!
We had a great experience with this company, we needed to order some extra parts and they were very helpful with sending them promptly and assisting with any additional guidance we needed building the fence. The price was very reasonable and the fence is very sturdy and secure. Highly recommend!
After getting very expensive quotes for other types of fences I discovered the dog proofer as a much more affordable option. I purchased 150 ft of the 4.5 foot fence and a 60 inch gate. My husband and I installed the fence over 3 days working about 4-5 hours per day. If we can do it anyone can. I have 2 beagles and they have yet to even try to escape but I have 100% confidence they will never get through this fence! It is SO secure and sturdy. I am so glad my dogs can run free now. If you are “on the fence” about getting a dog proofer I totally recommend it!
With quite a bit of ingenuity and sweat, I single handedly installed this fence in my 'glacial till held together by spite' New England back yard, with a decent slope to boot. I had to hand dig each of the 26 holes and remove very large rocks from many of them. As a result, I ended up using concrete in about half the holes. It was a smart move. The project took me a very long time (the entire summer on weekends and some evenings) due to the terrain of my yard. The fence has been in place for 8 months now, and there are absolutely no signs of wear. Two minor complaints: I felt that the instructions did not adequately describe the fact that the poles must be screwed to the sleeves with the provided self tapping screws. As a result, I covered all the sleeves with dirt and then realized I had to uncover them to complete this step. My drill got full of dirt, it was not fun. Also, the latch for the gate was too short. I ended up buying a different one somewhere else and it works great. My dogs are very happy with their space.
I have a 1 year old French Bulldog that was able to find the areas to scoot under the fence and visit the neighbors. Instead of just treating the low areas I decided to treat my entire fence line with No Dig. It’s 700 feet of fencing and I did it myself (I am in my late 50’s) in about 10 hours. I used the hog tie gun and a hand cart to move the fencing boxes around the yard. I did have to apply some WD40 to the hog tie gun, it seemed to start sticking halfway through the project. I did have to call customer service and a real person answered (that’s worth a five star rating right there!) and they were very helpful. The box of hog ties can be found in the box that contains the fencing. I am very happy with the entire process.
This has been used to extend a wooden deck railing. I wasn’t sure it would work but it was the only thing I found that seemed a remote possibility. Happy to report that it’s kept my Cattledog mix safely on HIS side of the deck!
I almost never review products cause otherwise I could spend all day writing reviews.
However the Dog proof fence kit is 100% perfect, looks great, easy to install and more importantly keeps the new puppy from escaping the backyard to lake and potentially become a snack for the gators that live there.
I put a new fence in my south facing front yard so my dogs could fully utilize it when it’s sunny but my new puppy was so small she could fit through the openings. Got this and now all is well! Super easy to install and not really noticeable from afar. You can mainly see it when you get right up to the fence and even then it looks totally fine. I have a black metal fence. It blends right in. Couldn’t be happier with it!
Very quick delivery, everything as advertised, easy installation. Was installed as soon as I received it. Already emailed company with my positive experience. Thanks again!
This is just what we needed to keep our husky from jumping our wrought iron fence! Fairly straightforward attachment with square u-bolts. It feels secure and looks good. Most importantly, it’s been effective so far!
The fence is decent quality material and very effective for keeping my dog safe and giving him a big play area. The installation was rather challenging because we have very rocky soil and uneven terrain making it difficult to drive in the post sheath inserts. However, the tool set with wire snips, level, and hog ring gun is very cheap and made the installation process even more frustrating. I highly recommend buying your own tools if you don't have them already. The hog ring gun was especially cheap and jammed up almost every hog ring. Thankfully the customer service was very accommodating and refunded the price of the gun. Overall I'm pleased with the fence and I believe it was worth the price.
i am using it to keep the bunnies away from my yard. So far it’s perfect! I had it professionally installed and they did not comment on any challenges.
This product worked great! I was a little nervous about the install on my chain link fence. However, shortly after the delivery I was contacted by the company’s preferred installer. He did the job and my dogs are happy to have free reign of the yard!
This Freestanding fence, using 100' of fence, up against a block wall, turned out great with some modifications due to mismeasurement on my part. My Grandson built it with the help of a few friends. The tops of the main poles mushroomed but didn't affect the integrity of the enclosure. The gate latch is a bit short but works. The plastic covers for the main poles don't stay in with the AZ winds but will glue them permanently. We connected the block wall to the fence with 2 shade tarps to give some protection from the AZ sun. Overall very pleased with purchase. Will be purchasing metal zip ties to replace plastic, as AZ sun will destroy eventually.
Great product and super easy to install along our wrought iron topper. We have had issues with rabbits hopping our wall to come in our yard for feasting on our grass and veggies. So far so good with this fencing installed.
We purchased this as an extra measure to keep our pups safe. They are the ultimate escape artists! It was super easy to put up once we got the hang of it. Everything came as described and correct in our order. We ordered 350 ft, so the kit was large! So far, it’s been jump proof! 🤞 I wasn’t quite sure how good it would look either, but it blends in really well since we have quite a bit of foliage around the house. The only cons are how cumbersome it is to put up the wire in 50ft rolls - it’s definitely a 2 person job!, the metal bars scratch the paint pretty easily, and the return/cancellation policy with the restocking fees.
Bit expensive but I still give it a high rating. You can use my picture in your advertising just send me 1% of proceeds 😆😂😆
I'm a renter so we put up a wire mesh fence with t-posts for our dog run. Jen at Dog-Proofer helped me figure out what I would need to integrate the 4.5' gate into our existing wire mesh fence. I just needed to purchase the extra hinge post and sleeve since I wasn't using the full fence system. Everything worked out amazingly and we are extremely happy with our decision of choosing Dog-Proofer. The only issue was the sleeves were very hard to hammer in and we used the top side of our t-post driver with placing some 2x4 scrap wood on top of the sleeve so we didn't damage the sleeve. I'd recommend that they provide the drive caps that come with the regular freestanding fence system. But overall, we are extremely happy how it turned out. Thanks to Jen & Dog-Proofer for making sure all our questions were answered prior to placing our order.
It took me two days to put up 150 feet of fence extension. I’m a 67 year old woman and put it up by myself. It was easy and I didn’t run into any issues. This is day three after putting it up and my cat has obsessively walked the perimeter and made several unsuccessful attempts to get out. I’m so glad I purchased this and highly recommended it for other cat owners.
Our vinyl fence is 6 feet tall around part of the yard and 4 feet around the rest. After about six months of golden retriever containment, our dog figured out how to scramble over the 4-foot section. We chose the Dog Proofer curved fence extension as a solution, and it’s been exactly what we needed.
We hired a local handyman for installation, and he had no issues. That said, vinyl fencing does require a bit of extra attention during install:
- The post caps had to be removed,
- A wood block inserted into the hollow vinyl post,
- And the extension bracket was drilled directly into the wood for stability.
We were initially worried about splitting the posts, but our handyman pre-drilled the holes and everything went smoothly.
It’s now been two weeks. Our dog immediately tested the entire perimeter and hasn’t escaped since. The system feels solid and secure, and we’re optimistic that she won’t be able to go over the top again.
Highly recommend for anyone with a vinyl fence and a dog determined to find the weak points!
This saved us from having to buy a new fence and at a fraction of the cost. It also solved the problem. It was easy to install. Good quality. Shipping was prompt and their customer service was super responsive and helpful. Best choice we ever made.
Our concerns about our growing pup’s ability to scale our 4-foot fence were completely put to rest with the installation of the Houdini-Proof Fence Extender almost two weeks ago. This cost-effective solution not only looks great but is also impressively sturdy. It's well designed and easy to install, thanks to the detailed instructions and the included supplies, which allowed us to securely attach it to our fence type. Now, we can let our pup outside with confidence, knowing he’s safe and secure.
We bought this ladder from someone who purchased and never used. We fell in love with it! Had 3 dogs, 55, 75 (now 100) and 85 lbs. They could all walk up and down this ladder, we did not have to lift them! One, very sad, day, the ladder sunk. I purchased a new one, because we can not live without it now! The new one has Styrofoam in it (as this has apparently happened before) so now it won't sink. BEST LADDER for my pontoon boat EVER!
