bird 9,916 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 what gets me mad, is when they put 1 strand only (6in) off the feckin floor . Now there no way that height will have any affect on a cow or sheep, as the next strand above does that.! Its (put) there to feck your dogs up( got to be) . Was out the other day and my mates patx chased a rabbit through the edge, and bang cut him in the chest,! AND THEY WONDER WHY THEY GET FENCES SMASHED DOWN 4 Quote Link to post

AND THEY WONDER WHY THEY GET FENCES SMASHED DOWN If it's all wire fence 6" off the floor is off no use at all and is dangerous to stock , last year a horse got caught up in a fence because the wire was so low but luckily it was bull wire so no major damage done , Quote Link to post

My 12month pup was close to bleeding out last Sunday coz of the f*****g thing, she jumped blind and caught her leg where the vain splits in to then down to her paw on her back leg. that's similar to what happened to mine, don't even know how but mine was so deep i could see into her chest cavity! she had to get a blood transfusion. My dad hates the stuff too and every farm we buy he immediately gets rid of all the barbed wire and either high tension 7 strand plain wire in or two wire electric. 1 Quote Link to post
