It’s an easy and cost-effective way to ensure your pet will stay safe with the best, most advanced pet containment system available. Learn more about DogWatch of Nashville’s upgrade program below.

With DogWatch, you can also upgrade to a SmartFence® – the most advanced pet containment system on the market. The SmartFence keeps you connected to your dog and your system in a whole new way, and it’s only available from DogWatch!


*The battery in the standard R9 receiver typically lasts up to 2 years. The battery in the R7 receiver (designed for small dogs and cats) typically lasts 6 months.


How Our Trade-In Program Works


If you are ready to switch, we make it easy for you. In most situations, we can use your existing buried wire so the installation is quick and easy. We just swap out the equipment (both the transmitter and the receiver collar) and adjust the settings so they are appropriate for your pet(s). We will determine if your pet needs any refresher training and we’ll provide that, too, if needed. And because we appreciate your business, we’ll even discount the cost of the equipment!


Our Competitive Trade-In Program is available for Invisible Fence® Brand and most other professionally installed systems. (Note: this program does not apply to self-installed pet containment systems.)
