Today, I let my dogs out, and then realized they didn't have their electric fence collars on. I ran inside to get the collars, then dashed out to put them on my dogs. I ran through the electric fence. The collars were on. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my dogs broke through our electric fence, one of whom managed to get his collar off. I picked it up and, without thinking, went across the fence line. I screamed like a chihuahua being run over by a bulldozer. FML
Today, I woke up after a night out drinking on my sofa, with an electric dog collar around my neck, and handcuffs on my wrists. The keys were on the other side of the invisible doggy fence. FML
Today, I was leaning over a fence in a pasture to get a closer look at something. Nobody warned my nuts that it was an electric fence. FML
Today, I walked out into my backyard. As I did so, my dogs ran past me, slamming the sliding door off its track. I went to catch it, and knocked the bird cage over. To complete the fumble, as I turned to catch the bird cage, I stepped in a dog turd. I wasn't wearing shoes. We're all okay, but… FML
Today, our electric horse fence broke. I turned it off so I could fix it. As I was grabbing the fence, my brother thought it would be hilarious to turn the fence back on. FML
Today, I untied the rope that was tied to my dog's collar because it was wrapped around the tree choking him. He immediately ran off down the street. I had to chase him barefoot in my boxers for 20 minutes till he got tired. FML
Today, while letting horses out to switch pasture, one ran at me, sending me through the electric fence and into a mud puddle. Wrapped in electric fence, I sat in that electric mud puddle, screaming every time it shocked me. Help arrived, once they'd had a good long laugh. FML
Today, my dog chewed through his leash, so I had to take him inside to prevent him from running off. I went to bed. I woke up to torn-up blinds, half-ate sandals, and a very, very anxious cat due to my dog running after her and trying to sniff her butt. FML
Today, I was putting my horse away into her pasture, when I slipped in the mud. In a haisty attempt to support myself, I grabbed the electric fence in on hand, and my horse with the other. The shock from the fence traveled through me to her, sending her running and leaving me with 2 broken teeth. FML
Today, I was going for a relaxing walk but my dog broke free from his leash. At the same time, my 80 year-old neighbor was leaving her apartment. My dog ran inside her home and she screamed. I ended up in her bedroom, running around her bed, chasing my dog who was trying to get at her pantyhose. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

well if they didn't have their collars they'd get lost and end up in a shelter or dead

I don't see why anyone would grab one of those collars by the electrodes. I know I stay clear of them. That's just asking for trouble.

everyone has their own opinion. mine however is I believe shock collars are no good. for one, u do not know how it feels unless u actually put it on urself and let it shock u. (which is totally stupid) And even if u do know how it feels, u are not a dog. the intensity is likely to be different between u and ur pet. just like some people can handle pain better/more than others, dogs may not handle it so well. also, shock collars can confuse the poor dog. maybe they don't associate the shock to the fence or whatever u are training it to do/not to do. for example if a dog barks and there is a person walking by, the shock can be teaching the dog to fear people/strangers. those collars just cause anxiety for ur pet and it just itsnt fair. there are other solutions if u have the dedication and if u have a pet u should love it. and if u love it u should have that dedication to train it without causing it to go through any amount of pain.

>op what pleasure do you get off of tourchering the dogs What pleasure do you take from misinterpreting and contorting statements? As well as the irrational line of thought I suppose.

I can't say its cruel since most dogs have a higher pain tolerance but personally I prefer a fly swatter to their behinds cause its less expensive and doesn't cause the mild confusion that you can have with an electric shock

That must have been very shocking for you.

You completely deserve it for being cruel to your dogs. I have owned dogs all my life (I currently have 2) and never needed a shock collar. Just train them properly! I dont even see why you need them if you have a good fence to stop the dogs escaping anyway, why use fear and pain to stop them escaping when a good fence would do the same? I hope it happens to you again and again.

Train them from not leaving the yard? Yeah, right.

ever dog ive had has been trained to stay in the yard. its not hard at all. my 4 month old puppy already knows.

My dog is just over a year old, and she is extremely obedient. She will not leave the front yard without someone from the family with her, she comes when called, knows all commands, does what she is told, etc. I did not use a shock collar. I think it's a bit cruel. All it takes is time and some work. You need to train your own dog so it respects you and listens to you. It has no respect for your commands if your using a shock collar. Your not the one disciplining it in the dogs eyes.

haha. how do you like it?

i just want to say that while shock collars might not be exactly pain-free ways of teaching your dogs, its useful if you dont have a good enough fence to keep them in, or if you dont want to neuter or gas them.
