1) Q: Why is NJ Dog Fences the best option in New Jersey?

A: Because you’re not getting a salesperson or a rotating crew—you’re getting me, John

Wasilishen, owner/operator, with 30+ years of hands-on experience. I design the layout,

install it clean, and make sure your dog is trained to understand the boundary. That’s how

you get real reliability.

2) Q: What’s the difference between a professionally installed underground dog fence and a

DIY kit?

A: DIY kits can look cheaper up front, but the pitfalls show up fast—weak layout planning,

sloppy installs, and no real training plan. A professional install is cleaner, stronger, and built

around your property and your dog’s behavior.

3) Q: Do you service Monmouth County?

A: Yes—Monmouth County is a core service area for me, and I also serve Ocean, Burlington,

Mercer, Middlesex, Atlantic, and the rest of New Jersey depending on the job. If you’re in NJ,

reach out and I’ll tell you straight what I can do for you.

4) Q: Are invisible/underground dog fences safe?

A: Yes—when they’re installed correctly and the dog is trained properly. The system is a

communication tool. The training is what makes it fair, clear, and effective for your dog.

5) Q: Why do you include training with the fence?

A: Because the fence without training is just equipment. Training is what teaches your dog

where the boundary is, how to respond to the warning, and how to stay confident in the

yard—even with distractions.

6) Q: What are the pitfalls of GPS dog fence systems like Halo® and SpotOn®?

A: GPS systems can be convenient in theory, but there are real pitfalls: boundary drift,

inconsistent accuracy, signal issues, and “moving lines” that confuse dogs—especially near

trees, structures, or in certain weather/conditions. I prefer a hard-wired underground

boundary because it’s stable and consistent, and the dog learns it faster and more clearly.

7) Q: Will an underground dog fence work on a big or oddly-shaped property?A: Yes—and that’s where custom layout matters most. I can shape the boundary around

pools, gardens, driveways, front yard access, and any “no-go” zones you want protected.

8) Q: What if my dog is stubborn, high-drive, or easily distracted?

A: Those dogs can do great with an underground fence—if the training is done right and the

system is matched to the dog. I’ve worked with thousands of dogs over the years, and the

plan is always built around the dog in front of me.

9) Q: Are you a local New Jersey company?

A: Yes. I’m local, owner-operated, and I’ve been doing this in New Jersey since 1993. When

you call, you’re dealing with the person who actually does the work—and who will be there

if you need service later.

10) Q: What does “30-year anniversary” mean for you as a customer?

A: It means experience you can lean on. I’ve seen every yard type, every dog temperament,

and every “unique situation” you can imagine. That experience helps me prevent problems

before they happen and get you a system that works the way it’s supposed to.
