Dogs for Home Security? Yes! Dogs definitely add another layer of protection for your home. It doesn’t have to be a trained guard dog either. Any four legged friend can be a security dog. They will be alerted to things you aren’t, and the barking will alert you and potentially neighbors. Most dogs are loud, even smaller dogs, and burglars don’t want to deal with them.<\/p>\n
Here’s a little tip. Even if you don’t have a dog, you can make it appear like you do and that can keep burglars away. Remember, burglars want something quick and easy without getting caught. If they think there is a dog that could attack them, or even just bark and blow their cover, they will often pass on by to find someplace without a four legged security system.<\/p>\n
You can display large dog bowls (food and water) near your front and back door, or even post “Beware of Dog” signs to give the appearance that your home is protected.<\/p>\n
Having dogs for home security is one of the more simple measures you can take to help protect your home, especially if you are a pet lover. And if for some reason you just can’t or don’t want pets, making it appear as if you own a dog is also a very simple measure to add an extra layer of protection to your home.<\/p>\n
Of course, if you are really serious about dogs for home security, you can invest in a dog that has been specifically trained to help protect you and your home. My friend and mentor, Tom Antion, has two dogs with this training, and I’ve been very impressed with them when I visit his home in Virginia.
