Manhattan-based pet boutique, Trixie & Peanut, is recommending dog owners buy their $79 hiking boots with thick black rubber soles that might protect them if they should walk over one of the city's unpredictable sites of "stray voltage."

It's been reported heavily the matter of dogs getting electrocuted during city walks after stepping onto charged water or metal.

No better way to stimulate commerce than the fear of death!
