My Dad used to tell this doggie story: Once when my Mom had some sort of
prized rose bush a certain
dog decided it was his private ****ing territory - always the same rose
bush. Dad, drove a ground
rod at the base of the bush and tied one side of 110 V ac to the rod. The
the other side of the
line was connected to several thin strands of bare copper and draped
carefully over the bush. It
was said the offending dog left the area on three legs, never to return
again.

Mythbusters proved (?) that ****ing on an electrified terminal would not
pass electricity. Tell that to the dogs I have seen **** on my electrified
garbage cans. Like you say, they never come on property again, and won't go
within ten feet of a trash can for the rest of their lives. They will leave
the sidewalk and walk in the street rather than come close to a trash can.
I think the reason that Mythbusters couldn't duplicate it says something
about their equipment.
