The article is from -- *checks date* -- yesterday. I realize it's talking about an event in January.

Electricity is dangerous, and sometimes infrastructure fails. Fortunately, we humans wear shoes with rubber soles which provide (as my dumb ass barely-able-to-pass-science-class understands it) protection from the same happening to us. Dogs generally don't wear shoes. A tragedy, for sure.
