And do you have to remember to disable it in order not to get sprinkled
yourself? Kirsten


I have two, we humans learn, only takes getting hit a few times and you
learn to turn it off before walking in front of it. ;o) Notes on the door
help too.

Now that I've screened the ponds and removed the sprinklers, it is still
hard to walk out in "the sprinkler target zone". ~ jan

Hmm - my wife hist the electric fence a few times (I can hear it clear across
the garden) before she learns not to touch it when picking pears.

The racoons only hit it once.

Does this mean that the racoons are smarter than my wife........

Yes. But then racoons are probably the smartest creatures on the planet
(even including white mice and dolphins). Some creatures never learn - I
spent Sunday at the emergency vet clinic with my German pointer. She's had
4 encounters with porcupines, now, two of them requiring the emergency
trip.

I just love it when I think it's turned off and the battery
is low.....it waits until you're directly in front of it and
only 2 feet away!!!!!!
