[QUOTE="Little Cow, post: 376024, member: 5507"] That brings back memories...(okay, so it was only three years ago, but that's ancient history when you're a newbie! :lol: ). I was still in the Navy and coming home late from the ship one night, (about midnight). Saw a couple of animals trot across the road in front of...no, it couldn't be...MY HOUSE! The horse and donkey were having a great time trotting around the neighbors' yards looking for snacks. I pulled in, grabbed a halter, and grabbed the gelding, because he was easy. The donkey followed. Then, I noticed two electric fences were down; one for the horse pen and the one for the cow pasture. The cows were long gone. I still had the horse by the halter and knew I had to be up in four hours to head back to my ship, but, I still saddled that horse. It didn't take that long to find the cows, even in the dark. After riding around for about an hour, I heard some bellowing about a mile down the road and found my girls looking wide eyed and snorty. They were flirting over the fence with a bull in a neighbor's pasture. After a few false starts, I got them headed home. Penned them up in the corral until I could sort things out in daylight. By the time I was finished, it was time to head back to my ship. And that was the last time I depended on electric fencing. Donkey busted through his fence and then kept going to free the cows. Stupid donkey. [/QUOTE]
