It’s all about your dog.®

Hello, we are Mark & Laurie Spain of Stateline DogWatch Hidden Fences. We are a "Locally Owned and Operated" Hidden Fence business. We would like to take a minute to give a little history as to how we became the DogWatch dealer for northwestern Illinois and southern Wisconsin.

Having moved from a privacy fenced subdivision to a rural property in 1998 we were in the market for an electronic dog fence. Unfortunately we did not do our homework to compare features that the different systems offered. We had an Invisible Fence brand system installed. It did contain our dog but when the batteries ran out so did he. After having to Chase Eli down a busy county black top THREE times in ONE year we traded in our Invisible Fence for a DogWatch Hidden Fence System. The long battery life (2 years) and nominal cost ($12.50 per 2 years) is what first attracted us to Dog Watch. It was then that we realized the long list of benefits DogWatch offers to keep our pets safe. This ranges from the Safelink® Digital FM signal, audible warning that is distance-not timing based, individual settings for multiple pets and our favorite "Tattle Tale" feature. . That is why we get so excited talking about what DogWatch has to offer. We don’t want people to make the same mistake we first made.

In 2003 we called for service and found DogWatch was seeking a new representative for the area. With Laurie's experience as Certified Veterinary Technician and Marks background in mechanical engineering we were a good fit to join the DogWatch Family of Dealers. For 3 years Laurie & Mark balance her life between building Stateline Dogwatch Inc. and their full time jobs. Our 3 sons also contribute to the business on a regular basis with installs and service. Our second year in business we were honored with the award of “ 2005 Rookie Of The Year” at the 2006 annual DogWatch Dealer Meeting. In 2009 we were honored with "Dealer of the Year" Worldwide.

As a C.V.T. Laurie has a developed a deep understanding of canine behavior and the training process. Laurie has attended the week long DOGS COURSE , Principles and Techniques of Behavior Modification at Purdue University This benefits our clients dogs with a very low stress training protocol that implements true operant conditioning principles. Laurie also attended an intense 10 day training course at That's My Dog in Dubuque Iowa. This additional training allows us to offer additional services of remote collar training to our clients. This can be for basic obedience training to off leash reliability.
