Spring is officially here! 🌷 The beginning of a new season is the perfect time for your annual Hidden Fence Checkup reminder. Here are some things you can do to ensure your hidden fence is ready for Spring! 🐾

👉 Check driveway and walkway cut to ensure they are sealed and that no wires are exposed.
👉 If you have a yard clean-up or aeration scheduled, be sure to alert anyone working on the lawn to the location of the hidden fence to avoid any accidental wire breaks caused by their equipment.
👉 Check the status light on your dog’s collar to make sure it is blinking green. If it is blinking red, it is time to replace the battery.
