Smart Fence?

Has anyone used this for goats, or have any thoughts about it?

Over priced. Just get the regular electric net.

A true smart fence would be one that jumped when the goat jumped so the goat couldn't get over. LOL

Electric netting is heavy and gets tangled easily when you are working around brush and trees. I am looking for something that is a little easier to work with in the woods and can be moved every day or every other day

OMGosh!!! If you don't mind the price! That is what I use to do but by hand! I had several different rolls on a broom handle and string it out, but I had to put the posts on/off each time I moved it.... I like the idea!
I wonder if there are any cheaper models?
