Hey again Kathryn,

At what height(s) do you put your hot-wire on the bottom of your fence? It's
been suggested to me that 6-7" off the ground is a good height for both hog
and dog noses (and possibly additional strands at other heights for added
protection), but would like confirmation from somebody (you) that is having
success with their design.

Thanks again,
Laurie
