The company that made this sign is located in Burgundy, quite a hike from here.
The fences are not powered up except for those couple of months in the spring. Car batteries are the usual power source. This fence blocks one of the paths that Callie and I like to take on afternoon walks. Right now, and during the rest of the year when the power is off, the grower lowers the fence at the path's access point so that people can cross over safely. When the power's on, we find other places to stroll. Callie encountered the electrified fences once or twice when she was a pup and has learned to keep clear of them.
"and has learned to keep clear of them."....
ReplyDeleteCallie is fortunate, being a gal...
My first set of in-laws had a BC dog...
out walking one day, my thenwife and I were trailing behind the in-laws...
my camera always slowed walks up a lot...
when we heard a loud yelp from up ahead and the hound came tearing back down the path towards us...
and hid behind our legs... as BCs do!
My f-i-l was creased up with laughter...
which didn't help...
dogs being very sensitive to being laughed at...
yes, the BC had cocked a leg at the wrong moment...
and received an electrifying surprise!!
He stuck with us for the rest of the walk!!
Poor fella, wouldn't go near his dad for almost a week...
I think he thought he'd done it deliberately!
Oh, Tim, that's quite a story!
ReplyDeleteWalt, I do enjoy seeing these everyday things, like signs like this :)
Dogs learn fast.
ReplyDeleteVery nice that the growers lower the fence for access during off-season.
ReplyDeletetim, ouch!
ReplyDeletejudy, I don't get out much. ;)
ron, yup.
mitch, he's a nice guy, and we're not the only ones who use that path.
