Meet Your Local Team

When you are looking for a hidden underground electric dog fence, we understand it’s because you love your dog and want to provide a safe place for them to exercise and just be dogs. As Greg Smith, dog lover, dog trainer, and owner of Pet Stop Pet Fence Systems of Western Mass, says, “Dog owners want to have peace of mind and know their pets are protected.” Greg shares this commitment to your pet’s safety and well-being. Greg has over 30 years of experience in dog training, both in basic obedience and competitive settings. He believes in a very gentle and humane approach to training. Twenty years ago, when he needed a pet fence system for his dog Buck, he chose Pet Stop® for its safety and reliability. After retiring from a 25-year career in marketing, Greg decided to follow his passion for dogs and dog training. Becoming a Pet Stop dealer was an easy decision for him, and he has never looked back. People often seek Greg’s advice when they see his well-behaved yellow labs, Abby, Boomer, Sam, and Jag. He believes that dogs of any age can learn and thrive when they have a purpose. Greg’s training methods focus on making learning enjoyable. He carries kibble to reward puppies when they respond to commands, ensuring that training is always a positive experience. As they grow older, the need for kibble diminishes, but the positive reinforcement continues. In a 10-minute Gentle Steps training session with your dog, 9 minutes and 59 seconds are dedicated to playing and having fun. Training your pet with a Pet Stop pet fence system will be a positive and enjoyable learning experience for your beloved pet. Once trained, your dog will have a lifetime of safe and happy adventures in your yard!
