Use With Any Type Of Chain Link Fence

Use Dig Defence units to “tie” chain link fencing to the ground by interlocking the bottom links during installation. Dig Defence extends the protection of your fence underground to keep pets and furry intruders from pushing or digging under.

Protect Wood Privacy Fencing

Dig Defence can be used to close gaps under a wood privacy fence to keep animals from squeezing under or starting a hole for escapees. It also helps you avoid sitting wood planks directly on the ground, allowing a longer life for your fence.

XL Model for Immediate and Max Protection

Use the XL model in established favorite digging spots to stop the behavior, stat. Each XL model is 24" long and 15" deep with 1.5" tine spacing. Built for a lifetime of service with no maintenance, no wasted energy costs, and total peace of mind.

Decorative Fencing

Most vinyl, wrought iron, and other decorative fencing is installed with a gap purposely placed at the bottom of the fence—you might as well have a sign welcoming all animals to go under it! Dig Defence lets you stop the dig and correct the gap.

About Dig Defence

Dig Defence provides protection for pets and property. These no-maintenance units can be installed at the base of an already existing fence to ensure animals will not be able to enter or leave the fenced area.

Had a pup go missing for almost a month. Had a new fence and run installed my beagle has gotten out of everything even digging under. Added this to the bottom of the fence and where he still digs he has to go down before he can move forward and it's caught before he can dig enough to get out. Best addition to the fence. Definitely recommend to outsmart a beagle or other escape artist.

Does the job, but bars break off

When attempting to bend up some of the vertical bars (to dodge underground sprinklers), they often broke off. Rated 3 stars because it was far less force than expected

Works great under the edge of the fence, and under the edge of the deck

My small dog was crouching down and getting under the edge of the decking. I was afraid he'd get stuck in there. We used some of the extra Dog defence to close off

Metal

The ends that go into the ground need to be pointy, my hubby had to grind them all to a point to make them able to go into ground
