In reply to the discussion: 2"17 AM this morning, our property was violated. [View all]Sogo
(7,315 posts)49. Yeah, get a Doberman if you want your neighbors to hate you....
I lived next door to two Dobermans and they NEVER stopped barking. I'd walk outside my house, and they would be either in their back yard or looking out a window from the house and barked constantly at me. I couldn't enjoy being outside my house.
In their back yard, they'd bark at every squirrel or other creature that moved. They are the most territorial dogs I've ever seen. Even when they were in the neighbor's house, they would go from window to window and bark at whatever or whomever was outdoors within 20 feet of their house.

I'm sure you realize that you often have little time to find, operate and open your gun's lock box.

Most cameras do that. Ring is good for both alerting cameras and motion censor lights.

She. She was left tied to a tree abandoned on my property. Great Pyrenees are gentle giants, so we took her in.

My Wyze cameras send notifications instantly, announce they are recording, have microphones, spotlights and sirens.

You are lucky. If they started running away from you and you shot them, you would likely go to jail since they did not
