Houdini is no longer. We ended up needing to replace the charger for the fence. Once everything was in place and it was plugged in, we took a vote. The results were 4-1. Jennifer was the lucky one to see if it was really working. When she was notified, she took off, running for the house. Oh well. Once Lily was put in the pasture, it didn't take long to know for sure the fence was working. Lily, herself, tested it and did not like the results, at all.
