Picket Protector
Fence Safety for Small Dogs & Puppies
If you’ve ever found your dog squeezing through the gaps of a wrought iron or aluminum fence — or worse, getting their head stuck while trying — you know how stressful and dangerous that can be. Picket Protector was created by a Myrtle Beach-based small business to solve exactly that problem.
It’s one of those “Why didn’t I think of that?” ideas that just makes sense — especially for pet parents with small breeds, puppies, or determined escape artists.
What is Picket Protector
Picket Protector is a removable fence guard that easily attaches to your dog’s harness to prevent fitting through your fence!
Think of it as a safety net that:
Prevents dogs from escaping through wide fence pickets
Helps avoid head-stuck or panic situations in puppies and small breeds
Keeps everyone secure while still allowing airflow and visibility
It’s especially helpful for:
Small dogs, puppies, and toy breeds
Rental properties or HOAs where permanent changes aren’t allowed
Foster or multi-dog households where the risks vary
Why I Recommend It
Locally made — I love supporting Myrtle Beach businesses that are creating real solutions for pet parents.
Removable and damage-free — You can take it with you when you move, or adjust it seasonally.
Clean, minimal look — It doesn’t take away from your home’s aesthetics.
Peace of mind — No more fear of a disappearing puppy or emergency calls to the vet for stuck heads.
This is a great option for anyone trying to create a safer yard without a big fence renovation or when you visit friends and family!
