[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 532248, member: 1233"] Sweetie, why not tell her you got a dog because someone kept 'breaking in' and leaving things and stealing your rhubarb and other growing things and this is what the sheriff/cops recommended to help stop it? It would let her know that entering your home is NOT okay unless she asks, that you want her to stay OUt of your rhubarb, and that the dog is there to STAY. Or else tell her that the next tme she breaks in to get or leave something, you will call the cops because it is NOT her home it is YOURS. She is welcome to come by WHEN SHE CALLS FIRST AND IT IS A GOOD TIME FOR YOU. Also have you considered locking the door and posting a sign saying that ANYONE stealing rhubarb is trespassing and will be shot or prosecuted? I know you have set some boundaries, but I think it is time to set more. If your mom has a key to your house, it is pretty easy to change the locks. Just pick up a lock set at the hardware store and follow the instructions on the package or you can find instructions online. Don't say a word and let her wonder why her key doesn't work if she has one. It is YOUR house and you have every right to keep her OUT of it. You just have to do whatever it takes to make it happen. It will also protect your kids from her. [/QUOTE]
