OR.... one can just do a professional install job, and not have loose cables, and properly stable/fasten all cables flush to surfaces every three feet, and run behind walls, and under trims, etc. Dogs have never been a threat to my installs. Sure a Dog might chew a 6ft Patch Cable, but thats an easy fix, and easilly verified by end user. Now on the other hand a Weed Eater? We've had a few cut by lawn care, when the weeds grew up to the trim edge, cause they dont even know the cable is there, and accidentally get it.
