    I have a really small water feature in the gardens that I installed last year. We had hoped to get the electrical outlet fixed so we could hook up the dragonfly spitter but alas we never got it fixed. Last July we got a new puppy and she decided she could grab a quick drink here after a romp through the fields :( Now, this year, I'd love to finally get the electrical hooked up but not only is she drinking from the pond she steps into it, curls up and lays down to cool off! Maybe this is a stupid question but I don't want to take any chances. If we do hook up the pump is the electrical current strong enough to cause "problems" when she take a drink or decides to take a dip in the pond?
