Failed Canine DDoS (note multiple attack vectors)

Motivated by frustration, our 5-year old dachshund launched a Distributed Denial of Service attack on our Internet connection, but failed (left). He made quick work of a nearby antenna feed coaxial cable, and he’s destroyed much tougher things, but he couldn’t nail this UTP cable…

I suspect the 24V DC on one of the copper pairs discouraged him. So could this be a solution for making network cabling less appetizing to the spectrum of gnawing and chewing creatures? Perhaps. But until it’s patented as anti-chew technology, who could be angry with a little furry being bearing a face like that :-)
