In 1991 our CEO and founder Larry Volwiler, was looking for a way to contain his Dalmatian, Duchess. Since traditional wood or chain link fences were not allowed in the neighborhood, the only options were a tie-out or an underground dog fence. At that time the only underground fence option was the Invisible Fence brand. Unwilling to pay over $1,200.00 for an Invisible Fence, Larry was resigned to the fact that Duchess would have to be tied up. Two problems quickly arose: Duchess would almost always get tangled around a tree and worse, from time to time, she would get off her chain and run away.
