[QUOTE="Star*, post: 518102, member: 4964"] I am not saying if I do or do not leave my doors unlocked. HOWEVER - the last guy to venture into the yard and try his luck on the door knob of the shop was greeted around 1:30 AM in total darkness with a sign on the fence that reads - I can make it to the fence in 2.5 seconds ...can you? And a picture of a pit bull - ours. A sign on the shop that says - Nothing in this shop is worth your life....trespassers will be shot - survivors will be shot again. A very crotchety man with a shot gun who did fire two rounds into the air, while yelling "GET THAT ROBBER BULL." - and he was chased at full speed by a 70 lb pit bull, a 140 lb American Bull dog - a biker with a shot gun who was laughing and yelling "HEY come on back - Bring yer buddies wahhhhhooo I'm done reloading." and me flipping on the floodlights - There was evidence that he nearly cleared the fence and left part of his hand on the knuckles up of the fence - and I'm pretty sure it wasn't a raccoon that pooped in the yard. We're fairly certain it was the pothead from the camper park down the road from us, and DF heard him falling and crashing through the woods. Since then? We've been fortunate. About a week ago two men in a pickup truck stopped DF and asked first about the dogs - if they were friendly? DF said Nope, neither am I. Then the guy asked about three rolls of chain link fence that we've had in our yard on their side for a long time. The young man said "I have some dogs and I see you have some fence - I'd like to have it." DF said "It's not for sale, sorry." (He always adds that sorry business) The guy got a little snotty and said "Well it's been sitting there for three years!" and well - I told you DF is nice until he isn't and he turned back around and walked back over to the truck like he was going to GIVE the fence to the guy and instead he looked at him and said "SO is that how long you've been SNOOPIN around my place?
