CB, I have used electric fences for over 50 years. Even in a dry country. All you need is one ground rod at the installation. Just drive any rod in a foot or two and make a good contact with it. I have no idea where these other guys are coming from. I'v run 1 or 2 miles even in easter Colorado dry weather. Some times with dry, loose dirt their feet don't make good contact on the ground so the "other wire " grounded on the fence helps. For a portable unit, a car battery will run most of a summer on one charge. The solar power one are great, but do cost a bit. Don't make it so complicated...just go out and hook it up.
