You should probably work on it hot, to know when you've got it right.

Please video that.

I was working a polynet hot the other day , your arm twitches a bit but you can still tie two sections together

Your running it hot right? dog must have bolted forward instead of back, lol

Those are square mesh so a little different but the concept is similar, as long as the wires make contact you're good...

Maybe the dog chased the pig into the net and went in after it.

run the poultry netting to keep the birds in

run a hot wire 12-16 inches outside the netting to keep the other stuff from messing with it , right about 8-10 inches off the ground

I generally find the netting to not be as hot as the border wire

running a ground wire so that if a larger dog or pig or something walks into your hot wire they have just put their head between low hot and high ground , that is when a fence can really wake you up when you get a good bridge
