Real Dog Fences – 15+ Years of Engineering – DIY Kits & Pro Install – 4 Levels of Security – Low Visibility
Well done! You kept looking, it is a wise choice to avoid shock collars. Too many dog professionals agree that most dog fencing options available are dangerous or not designed for dogs at all.

Are you considering investing in a fence? A well-constructed REAL fence adds value and security to a home. Realtors agree that a fenced yard can be a deal-breaker or deal-maker for families with dogs.
The biggest question is, Will this work for my dog(s)? The answer is yes! Of our 93 Google reviews, nearly 80 of them are five-star, and we are continuously improving everything we do. While no fence is 100% dogproof, our Max 3-layer system has a success rate of over 98% Now, with even more protection! 🌶️ Spicy pro infused Anti Chew poly mesh
We recommend that your house serve as one side of the enclosure, ensuring your dog(s) are not isolated. Then, you can open the door to let the dogs out! That is the magic, especially when it’s done to the cost and in the time! For multiple dogs, we recommend a space of at least 200 linear feet or more to have enough space to exercise, feel freedom, and avoid wearing the ground quickly in a small space. Please note that 300 linear feet can include up to double the total square feet!
Finding the right balance between strength and size is essential. If the fence is too small, it won’t enhance your dog’s quality of life and ability to exercise—it will simply become a kennel. Our fences can be made stronger or taller without taking them down. Although you can add more layers of metal and post extensions easily at any time to raise a 5ft fence, Let’s not make the cure worse than the disease. Or get into an arms race. We can create fences with five layers of metal 8 feet tall with an inverted overhang, but it’s so rarely needed.

This strong and resilient material can very effectively withstand large tree branches, harsh weather conditions, including storms and snow of all types.

Before you start digging holes and cementing 30 or 50 posts in your yard, consider this: placing posts every 8 feet and deciding their locations for the next 30 years is a daunting task. High local fence prices and the potential loss of your view stop Real dog fence projects.
Our solution is simple and flexible. Using trees, structures, or existing fences as posts, you can vary post locations in any direction. Our cuttable layers of steel and poly mesh, combined with steel rail cables, easily contour to hills and uneven ground. This approach saves time, and money, and blends seamlessly with nature.
Instead of altering your property to fit the materials, our materials adapt to fit your property. No landscaping is required, making installation straightforward and preserving the natural beauty of your yard.
Choose from four levels of security, starting with our 5ft and 6ft tall 2-layer kits or our 6ft and 7ft tall 3-layer Max Strength kits. Each kit includes everything you need except a sledgehammer and a screw gun or drill for gate assembly. Visit our how to measure page or get pricing and order your kit today!
Our 3-layer Max Strength kits, featuring two metal layers, are specifically designed for larger breeds, hunting dogs, terriers, and any dog that tends to chew through fences. They are ideal for “Houdini escape artists.” These kits are easy to install on any type of terrain without the need for concrete, making them a cost-effective solution.
In just a weekend of straightforward work, you can create the perfect play space with the appropriate level of security for any dog breed. Almost anyone can complete this installation since post locations can be adjusted up to 10 feet in any direction. The materials can be cut, shaped, and angled to secure any property. We provide support seven days a week, along with detailed installation videos and written instructions, which we recommend using together.
All our kits use steel-tensioned rail cables similar to those in modern deck railings. They are strong yet designed to be slightly flexible at the top to prevent animals from climbing in or out. Steel meshes are used for two-thirds of every fence and the bottom dig guard. Look at all 12 or 13 components—this layering of materials, each serving a specific purpose, has proven incredibly effective for dig, chew, and climb protection in both 2-layer and 3-layer kits, trusted by thousands of customers worldwide.
**200 Linear Feet:** This length is ideal for creating a private dog park using your house, which measures approximately 65′ x 65′ x 65′ in any shape. It provides ample space for dogs to train, play fetch, and run at full speed. This setup can be installed over a weekend, and its size helps prevent the grass from wearing quickly in a small space.
**300 Linear Feet:** This option doubles the total area and square footage, offering even more room for your dogs to play. It allows them to feel less confined and helps reduce wear on the grass surface.
Pet Playgrounds offers a real, physical dog fence in a complete kit engineered specifically for dogs. Refined and improved for over 15 years, our fence is NOT an electric fence. Kits come with all the components needed to create a safe and secure play space for your dog on almost any terrain. Typically, up to 200 linear feet can be installed in one day by almost anyone!
Unlike invisible electric fences that only attempt to keep your dog in your yard, our physical dog fence stops predators, like coyotes, from entering your enclosure. It’s not an eyesore—the steel cables are similar to modern railings, allowing you to see through the fence and keep your view intact.
Traditional fences (like chain link fences) act like ladders. Dogs get their paws on the top rail of any solid fence and use it to pull over. Our dog fence makes this almost impossible. The strength and flexibility of the steel cable and the poly mesh at the top create a net or trap-like feeling for anything climbing in or out, making it not worth the risk.
Our fence moves when dogs (or predators) try to climb in or out. Note the top of all layers, each with their own steel rail cable.
Many breeds, especially terriers, beagles, and huskies, love digging. Unlike traditional fences, our fence does not end when it meets the ground—it keeps going for about a foot. Our fence comes with a dig guard, created using a strong 19-gauge steel mesh layer that is secured to the ground with ultra-hold ground stakes. Take a look at the video below because words cannot accurately describe how our dig guard works.
Not at all! In just a short time, the dig guard will almost disappear into the grass and become one with the soil. This zen-like effect will allow you to mow right over the top of it and right up next to the fence.
A dog fence provides a safe and secure area for your dog to play and exercise without the risk of running away or encountering dangers. It helps in preventing unwanted behaviors such as digging or jumping over traditional fences. Additionally, a dog fence can protect your garden and other areas of your yard from being damaged by your pet.
When choosing a dog fence, consider the size and breed of your dog, the layout of your yard, and your budget. Pet Playgrounds Dog Fence Kits offer various options that cater to different needs, including different heights and materials. Assess your dog’s behavior and energy levels to determine the most suitable fence type.
Installing a Pet Playgrounds Dog Fence Kit is straightforward and can be done by most homeowners without professional help. The kits come with detailed instructions and all necessary components. Typically, installation involves setting up posts, attaching the fencing material, and securing it to ensure stability and safety.
Yes, Pet Playgrounds Dog Fence Kits are designed to be durable and withstand various weather conditions. The materials used are high-quality and resistant to rust, corrosion, and UV damage, ensuring that the fence remains effective and looks good for years.
Absolutely. Pet Playgrounds Dog Fence Kits are highly customizable to fit any yard layout. Whether you have a small backyard or a large, irregularly shaped area, the kits can be adjusted to meet your specific needs. This flexibility ensures that your dog has a secure and ample space to play.
Our dog fence acts as a flexible net that effectively prevents dogs and other animals from climbing. The bottom material is flared inward and secured with unique ground stakes, creating a robust dig guard. This design ensures maximum security and protection for your pets.
With 15+ years of exclusive focus and 3,000+ installs across the U.S. and Canada, our 13-component Max Strength Fence is over 99% effective and easy to install on any terrain. This is the real, proven, affordable dog fence—because every other fence is just a fence.

We compared Pet Playground fences to other options. A local fence contractor wanted a bit more than twice as much $ compared to Pet Playground, and it was for just a 4-foot fence. We purchased 300 feet of 6 foot fencing, including 2 gates and installation of the whole thing.

Purchased the 7′ Max Fence last summer for our two Siberian Huskies. Installed it myself with the help of some friends. Our ground is fairly hard, so we had some trouble getting the sleeves all the way into the ground, but it lasted through

While we ordered and thought we could install ourselves, we decided it was best for a professional to install it. We also ordered the least amount of reinforcement type which wouldn’t do much for our strong diggers. Vic was super helpful to
We adopted a senior dog that had been tied up her entire life, so we knew we wanted to fence our backyard so that she could run free for the rest of her life. We had a few complications though. It is nearly an acre, much of which is wooded, it slopes, and has very uneven terrain.

I purchased the Pet playground fence when my Australian Shepherd was 1 year old because he was a great escape artist. That was 4 years ago and the fence has held up over rough winters and my now 2 Australian Shepherds constantly testing it. I love that it gives my dogs the freedom they want and peace of mind for me. Great fence and awesome service!!
We have 2 Great Danes (175# and 156#) and ordered the Max-Strength Kit. We are absolutely thrilled with the fence. The pups are free to roam and are loving life! We are very satisfied with our purchase and highly recommend the fence kit.
I first installed Pet Playgrounds fencing 6 years ago for my one dog that had at the time, and it worked great in terms of containing her, while blending into the trees and allowing me to enjoy the view of the surrounding greenery beyond
I LOVE my Pet Playgrounds Fence. It was the perfect solution for me.
1. I wanted to fence in my yard without obstructing the view or alienating my neighbors, and it is pretty much hidden in the brush on the sides of my property
We love the Pet Playground fence, as does our dog. It gives her much more freedom than the staked out lead she was previously attached it. As an Australian Shepherd, she is very active. She seems to respect the boundaries of the fence.

The fence is very cool because it can fit any shape backyard. Trees do not interfere because the installers can work with them. I have the black wire 6 foot fence to be coyote safe. Additional wire overlay is on the bottom to keep ground
We have two smart dogs that take advantage of anything to escape. Climbing on stuff we put near the edges, climbing the fence itself when that wouldn’t work, chewing through it even if it would give them splinters, and more. This way we don’t have to resort to shock collars or worry about repainting a fence when the paint chips.

So far so good. Our pup was able to get through everything else we put up until we found this. Having a digger presents its own special challenges and THIS worked. It’s been almost six months since we have owned this fence and it’s been fantastic. Not one single win for the dog.

I’m so glad I brought this fence. My husky had a habit of escaping any fence we installed in the past. This was easy to set up and while he has tried to escape, he hasn’t suceeded. Bonus, is that the fence isn’t visible so I can see the forest behind the house.

My dog has a habit of climbing any chainlink fences we would get and when we switched to a wooden one he would just plow through it. Not only has he not been able to plow through it but he can’t climb it either. I’m so grateful we finally found an answer that doesn’t hurt him
When we bought our house the fence was already installed but it was one of the best features of the yard! Our dog is part beagle and is prone to wandering off following a scent so this fence is perfect.

We had a Pet Playground Fence installed about a year ago and we could not be happier. We had just adopted a new golden retriever puppy and wanted to be certain he couldn’t leave the yard for his safety. We have deer and foxes in the area.

I bought my fence in 2016 because I have a dog that is a master explorer. I love him so much but was so worried/ scared every time he went on an adventure. I bought 700 linear feet of pet playgrounds fence and have never been happier!
A stellar product, that is extremely affordable. We’ve had them come and install 2 fenced in areas on our property, and their installation services are top notch.
Ordered this kit to build a fence for our dogs. Expected it to be a lot of work as with any do it yourself project. The instruction video and manual don’t tell you how impossible it is to get holes in the gate poles to attach the corners.
Installed this dog fence a couple years ago myself ,it was easy to install and it was more affordable than everything else I found .The icing on the cake was that it was incredibly hard to see my wife didn’t even know there was a fence
