Betel has been to Neil and Marcie's twice. He went for their party, with Orion and Odin on a Friday night. Then we spent the weekend there. They have electric fences for the horses, and at the party, Betel ran underneath it a couple times and only got shocked once.
However, when we were there for the weekend, he would not stop running underneath it. Of the 6 dogs, he was the smallest, so it was the easiest for him to get under. But it still brushed him. About every 2 or 3 times under, he'd get shocked and yelp and a few minutes later run under it again.
Finally, he accidentally brushed into it (instead of deliberately running under it) and it shocked him, and that time, approximately the 7th time he got shocked, he yelped and ran all the way back up the driveway to the house. It's a long driveway. And then he wouldn't come back down and made me carry him back down. He's heavy. And then he acted scared of it the rest of the time we were there.
What a dog moron. At least Orion and Odin figured it out, and they are far from bright bulbs. Orion, by the way, is still peeing on the floor and ocassionally pooping. I think it's him. I can't figure out if it's stress - from the change in routine and home, if his nose is too sensitive so I can't make the room smell clean enough, or if he's just too dumb to know to go outside.
