A dog can also eat stinky road kill and like it. Dogs are dogs and people are people.



My guess is that they have more skin and muscle around their throats. Comes in handy when they go at it with another dog. And I've noticed that dogs will choke if they pull hard enough.

dogs have more protection around their windpipes/throats then humans do.



thats why the make "choker" chains, cause simply tugging doesnt provide enough choking, you literally have to squeeze the neck for a choking effect. Generally choking is only used as a form of training, not like a daily type of thing "oh hey lets go choke the family pet"

That's low even for you my friend.

 

no, when I was installing them, I turned them on to test them out, then adjusted the light positions, grabbing the track without thinking, and it didn't do anything.



This track is just like mine:

Two possibilities:



1) The unit has a transformer in it, and the lights actually run on low (i.e. around 12) voltage.



2) The tracks provide something for the fixtures to slide in, but the actual electrical contacts are concealed within them.



I'm guessing the answer is "1" [/quote]

ah, that makes sense. The base unit is a transformer, I'm just not knowledgeable in electronics enough to know what a transformer does.



but now I know/remember...steps down the power, right?

i read my sentence and it seemed like i was promoting assault on animals so i figured that line would show i meant choking is a training only technique.

Yup. One of the neat things about alternating current (AC) is that it's easy to change voltage either up or down with transformers.

So am I at fault here?
