President John Purtell founded and named the Invisible Fence Company during the 1970s.  As the first president of Invisible Fence, John is the most experienced executive in the electronic pet containment industry.

John watched his brand be bought and sold several times by large corporations, which led to manufacturing getting out-sourced to China and more reliability questions than ever before.

So John reunited several former Invisible Fence Co. engineers.  Scott Touchton has the most patents in the electric fence field and had been the Chief engineer at Invisible Fence.  Former Invisible Fence manufacturing engineer, Richard Kapolka joined, promptly patenting spring-loaded probes, a simple but brilliant idea for your pet's neck comfort.  James Deery, Invisible Fence's IT manager, has signed on as well.  

Together, they are the most experienced pet containment professionals and uniquely are set to work together in the same facility.  This closely-knit working environment has resulted in the industry's finest combination of pet safety features, training protocols, and ongoing support.
