I live in Colorado, we built our home 7 years ago on a ranch that has been subdivided. We put up our fencing right after we moved into our home as we have horses. Our fencing is a minimum of 8 inches, but more like 12 inches inside our lot lines. Two years ago, people purchased and built a home on the lot behind us. They put up a very expensive wooden privacy type fence right on the lot line. Since then, my horses have reached over and chewed the top off of a few boards (5 total to be exact). The neighbor is telling us we have to either move our fence, or put up an electric hot wire. We are on acreage - it's not feasable to run hot wire that far from our home and where the electricity is - nor do we feel that we should have to move our fence as it was there years ago (along with our horses) We have offered to paint the fence with a bitter solution (which is clear) so the horses will not want to chew, but that was unacceptable to them... any adivse on where we stand would be greatly appreciated!
