I remember many years ago, a friend was on the City Council of a nearby town. They had a trustee in from the local prison, a convicted burglar. He spoke at length from his personal experience on how to prevent burglaries.
One councilman spoke up and stated that no burglar was going to bother his house because he had a big guard dog. The burglar smiled slightly and responded that a big dog does not bother him.He wraps a jacket around his left arm and carries a two foot steel rod in his right hand. Doggie gets to chew on the jacket just long enough for a good swing with the right hand. No more doggy!
He told the council, the ones they really hated were the little yappy ankle biters that would hide out of reach under the bed and raise holy hell.
