Brilliant Observation on Shock Fences/collars
Hey guys,
I live in a neighborhood that believes 100% in the use of either electric fences and/or electric shock collars. My dogs are the fortunate few that are not forced to wear these demon devices. Here is my first example on just how aggressive the fence method is: Take Jack, a Giant Schnauzer down the street. When he came to the neighborhood, any person, dog, animal could approach him and be recieved with love. Now when you and/or your dog/s walk past his shocking fence area, he does nothing but try to lure something inside so that he can rip it's throat out. Remember this was not an aggressive dog before. Take Charlie, a registered Golden Retriever (non-aggressive breed understood?). He would not have attacked anything or anybody before being forced to live inside an electric hell. Now even his people are scared of him becuase he will (for no apparent reason) lunge with his K9's aiming for thier throats. These devices are from the devil himself. To make a docil, non-aggressive dog defesive and on attack mode; this must surely be manufactured by the money greedy (not dog savy) people of this great nation. On to manual shock collars: Take Mannie, a shepard/lab. She had no bad faults except mishandleing. Her people got a shock collar to zap her every time she peed in the house (during or even up to 2 hours later). Mannie died from bladder cancer because she would not pee in or out of the house any more. It took a while so I'm sure it was slow and painful. Please do not use these devices without trying simple non-violent approachs. If you feel the need to do it anyway, think of your dog's sanity and mental/physical help. Pfunk |

We have our fence hotwired to keep the dogs from climbing out (it's a 2 acre
yard, btw). They've all been zapped a few times...they now respect the fence. shrug :-) V Rondo Farms, Home of Rambo the Wonder Horse |

I looked into the 'invisible fence' option a few years ago and decided
against it for my place. People who had used it said it was a training device, not a quick solution. They said they would not turn it on unless they were there to watch the dog and turn it off if things went wrong. One had had a dog blunder out and then get shocked when he tried to come back in the yard; apparently the system doesn't know which way the animal is going. If used carefully the system might be good in some circumstances; or perhaps there are better designs now.
