I'm serious. One of these days one of those dogs is really going to hurt someone, human or dog. All dog attacks whether on humans or dogs need to be reported.

Personally, I hate the idea of an electric fence. I don't believe any dog can be trusted in all situations to remain in the boundaries... as you experienced. I don't believe this dog/s have never done this before. Though I know some dogs that either by training or by electric fence never leave the front yard. But maybe that's a temperament thing... they just don't have any interest in humans or animals.

Are you sure they even have an electric fence or that it was activated?
