[QUOTE="Bez, post: 113085, member: 412"] One other thing you might consider - this because you are in Wisconsin. In the winter, the snow, ice and cold make for poor contact / ground. Therefore the animal will often not get a bite through the heavy winter coat. Then you have problems as they learn to push the fence. We overcame that by running a couple of additional lines between the powered lines. We make sure all of these additional lines are well grounded. That way when the animal pushes the fence, or sticks its head between the wires it completes the circuit. No winter fence pushing is the result. It has paid dividends for us. Something for you to consider. Bez [/QUOTE]
