Hmmm, nice dogs. Unfortunately, most crooks previously case your place beforehand. They'll be bringing over some nice tenderloin steaks for man's best friend to munch on and occupy your dog's time while the crooks go shopping within your home. Here poochy, poochy; here poochy, poochy.
Me, I prefer claymore mines on trip wires and Vietnam-era pungy-sticks on swinging pendalums. Plus, I don't have to feed booby-traps-- I just need to remember where they are.
