...don't know about the expense of the dog, pet deposit, and all that, but I'd go for the dog...mine is a lick-you-to-death mutt who sounds as if you're going to lose a leg when you rattle your keys at the door...but that's his greeting...I can tell his "someone's out there bark"...it's lots different...

...alarm systems wouldn't be my choice...even the poolguard...if they jimmy or kick the door...and it goes off, they're able to just reset it...stopping the noise...and who's going to respond, anyways...

...kids talk too much about what the family has in the home...I taught mine to be VERY selective about who they let in the door, and to talk carefully...not bragging about things we had...

...the point got driven home when a friend across the street was burgled by the "poor, underprivileged" boy he was giving a ride to class daily...the kid was prowling while he was getting ready...and brought a cohort back with him to clean the place out...cops got him to confess but did not name his partner, so they only got about hald their stuff back...

...had a customer burgled through a back patio door while he was mowing the front yard...it takes a good defense to keep 'em out...

...glad they didn't get in...seems as if they might have been watching for her to leave...

...I ALWAYS have a little somethin' to share... http://www.crkt.com/Bear-Claw-Sharp-Tip ... Sharp-Edge" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
