Title: Fence charger for dogs
Post by: Magnum on July 20, 2015, 12:08:03 PM

I "dog sit" for my daughter once a month for 2 or 3 days.

She has 2 boxers.

They are very affectionate and loyal dogs.

But they keep pushing fence planks onto the neighbors yard.

I am tired of having to re-attach them. (I use screws instead of nails.)

Do they make a fence charger that could be installed along the bottom of the fence that would not kill the dogs ?

(Maybe one with adjustable voltage/current ?)

Thanks.

Andy,

Electric fences are reasonably common but I doubt they are cheap. You see them here in OZ in cattle areas and once the cattle get stung a few times they stay away from them. I remember trying to step over a low fence in the country without knowing it was electric and got stung from it. Not fatal but certainly wakes you up. :P

This may work.

This may be the answer. :-)

Maybe modify it so it cleans up their poop.
