I've heard about it with light posts and I've heard about it happening with sewer grates & manhole covers as well.
Light posts I can understand, but sewer grates and manhole covers?! Why in the world would they be electrified?
I thought this video about Dog/Human interactions was pretty neat.

Very interesting video! Thanks for posting it.
I saw this on tv not too long ago! Very nice to watch!
I think we should start with 'paw stimulation' on three day old basenji pups as well
I've actually watched the entire program on National Geographic a couple of times. It really is interesting. Thanks for posting that.
Great video!! I'll look for the entire version on National Geo channel.
It reminds me of the trainer I knew 35 years ago. I had a Newfie in 4-H Obedience who refused to stay on long down. He taught me the constant eye contact thing and that dog never again released early. Long down/out-of-site was another trick altogether. He was a great guy. I still use his training with kindness techniques for my pets to this day.
that was really interesting. reminds me of the book "If Dogs Could Talk" (bad name for a book, but really good book)
