Dig Proofer Kit ⏤ No-Dig Dog Fence

Stop the Dig With Dog Proofer

Is your dog digging under the fence? Are predators trying to dig their way into your yard? Keep your dog in and predators out with Dog Proofer’s no-dig dog fence.

Our Dig Proofer system is a simple and extremely effective solution to prevent digging and possible escapes. This no-dig dog fence works with any fence type, whether you have wood, metal, chain link, PVC, brick, block, or something else.

The Dig Proofer System uses heavy-duty black vinyl-coated galvanized welded steel wire mesh to create a physical barrier on the ground leading up to your fence. The material arrives as a roll and is formed into an "L" shape during installation, so you can choose how much coverage you need. The bottom of this no-dig dog fence is staked into the ground using heavy galvanized metal stakes. The top is held in place with staples, screws, zip ties, or your choice of fastener, depending on the fence material (fasteners are not included due to the wide variety of fencing materials, though they can be purchased separately).

We offer two different sizes of Dig Proofer to keep dogs from digging under the fence:

The Standard version of our no-dig dog fence features 24 inch tall welded wire mesh, which allows for up to around 20 inches of coverage on the ground maximum.

The XL version features 42 inch tall welded wire mesh so that you can install maximum coverage up to approximately 38 inches on the ground.

The welded wire squares are 1.7" x 1.7" and the wire diameter is approximately 2.0-2.2mm, so your dog cannot scratch, chew, or fit through it, but grass can easily grow. The welded wire of our no-dig dog fence can also be trimmed to accommodate certain heights or work around obstructions in the fence line.

Our patented fencing solutions are highly effective, made with premium quality materials, and stand up to time. If you have any questions about how to keep your dog from digging under the fence, CONTACT OUR EXPERTS to get your questions answered.

Is your dog going under AND over the fence? Consider adding a DOG PROOFER FENCE EXTENSION SYSTEM to prevent dogs from jumping or climbing over your existing fence. Read more about how you can COMBINE DOG PROOFER SYSTEMS to create a safe outdoor space and keep your dog from digging under the fence.

*Fasteners to hold the wire to the existing fence are NOT included in our no-dig dog fence kit due to the wide variety of fencing types. You can learn more about the best fasteners for installation on the Installation tab.

Wrought Iron / Aluminum ⏤ UV-resistant zip ties (not included) are used to hold the wire mesh to your fence securely. One tie at least every 12 inches is recommended to keep your dog from digging under the fence.

Wood ⏤ Use heavy-duty staples or "romex" staples (not included) to hold fencing to wood surfaces. If pickets are small enough, zip ties can also be used.

Brick & Block ⏤ Our no-dig dog fence can also be installed on these surfaces. Specialty masonry fasteners will need to be used with washer heads (not included) to securely hold the mesh wire to the surface.

Chain Link ⏤ UV-resistant zip ties (not included) are used to hold the wire mesh to your fence securely. One tie at least every 12 inches is recommended. Alternatively, you can use Hog Rings, which are much stronger and more durable.
