[QUOTE="dudders, post: 7017266, member: 19026"] IMO electric is the best - it's all I've got. BUT: earth it well (2 or 3 stakes) and use a high-power energiser; Works better in wet weather, not so well in drought. Needs regular checking to keep grass and hedge out of it, coz each bit of shorting out saps a bit of the energy. I regularly strim under it, but you could use herbicide instead. It takes more work than stockfence but they won't be always pushing at it. Another great plus of electric is that walkers are a lot more likely to put their dogs on leads. Got lots of bright yellow warning notices here - with picture of a dog being zapped... [/QUOTE]
