Burglars interviewed in prison say that a barking dog is a good
reason for them not to break into a home.
Many people believe that it takes a junk yard dog to keep a burglar
out but, in fact, any dog that will bark at strangers may discourage
a burglar.
One working woman in Newark, N.J., has a tape recorded barking dog
message that goes off whenever anyone pushes her doorbell, to make
unwanted callers believe she's got a bulldog waiting inside.
P.S. If you have a ``doggy door,'' make sure it isn't also the way
in for a burglar.
