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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
Today, I ran into a parked car and fell into the gutter. All because a dog suddenly barked at me. From the other side of a wooden fence. FML
Today, I walked outside to see my friend frantically waving and running at me, yelling something I couldn't understand. I smiled and started to jog over to him until I realized he was screaming "RUN!!!" We spent the next 10 minutes running from his neighbor's 5 vicious chihuahuas. FML
Today, I was walking my husky when she saw a cat and bolted toward it. I couldn't let go of the leash because my hand was tangled up. Forced to run along, I ran into a parked van at full sprint. I lost my dog, broke two ribs and have to pay for the dent in the van. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when I tripped on the leash, dropping his treat bag. He snatched one, looked at me, and ran full speed in the opposite direction. I had to chase him for three blocks, yelling his name. He thought it was a new game. 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 was mauled by my own dog. I own a Chihuahua. 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
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 paid $5000 for a new fence in my backyard for my dogs. My dog escaped three hours after the contractor finished the fence. FML

What a jerk off. If its on your hand and it hurt that bad imagine how much it hurts around te poor pups neck. If its an absolute must to have can't you just set the shock lower so it won't hurt as bad.

Am I the only one who had to read this more than once? But anyway, if it shocked/hurt you that much, it's way too strong for your dog.

Shock collars are cruel and do not work. There are dogs that will willingly take the single shock they receive as they run across the invisible fence line in order to run around outside their supposed boundaries. What does work, even for dogs that are escape artists, is a 6' privacy fence with metal kennel fencing buried a couple of feet into the ground below the privacy fence and attached to it with a heavy duty staple gun, screws, or nails. This keeps dogs from digging under the fence to get out. If you have a dog that can jump a 6' privacy fence, you can add kennel fencing to the top of it or get a 10' privacy fence. I rescue and foster dogs and have a similar set up at my house. I know from experience it works. It cost around $2,000 to have someone install it for me around my 1/2 acre backyard. I know there are those who might consider that expensive however if you can't afford it then maybe you can't afford owning a dog.

I'm so happy you got a shock. Too bad you're probably too obtuse to learn how cruel you are~
