Well, I am back to this problem again this spring. My "invisable" fence that I put up last year worked GREAT! Until.....the darn ice rain came this winter. After about 3 or 4 days of getting rain on and off, it did a nice job on my fence! About 3/4 of it is on the ground. Ripped it right out of the steeples in the nice tall wooden posts I put up last year. SOOOOO....
I am thinking now that I have these nice TALL posts stuck in my yard....I might try the electric fence again....put up about 4 or 5 strands. Maybe put the first one about 2 feet or so off the ground so the dog & cat can walk under it without getting zapped and make them ALL live! Have the wire, but I am sure the darn insulators will cost me a $100 or more!
Not really sure. I like the black invisable fence, but if the ice takes it down, it ends up being a pretty expensive, pain staking task to put up new each year.
