About 2 am we hear someone trying to open the back patio doors which were locked.

The dog barked and some guy ran away and took off in a white car.

Scary.

Mike, such an american response!

Be careful Sabby... maybe security cameras? Motion detection lighting that turns on when people move in the back yard?

Canadians can't be trusted with guns Mike :-)

on a serious note Sabby, invest in a good motion detector lighting system as Alex mentioned....we have one and 'm not sure how effective it is against break-ins, but it got rid of our neighborhood dog problem (because my shotgun would have made a hell of a mess)

HAHA Alex, it was a joke. Don't be stereotyping us Americans!

It is nice though to live in a country where I can defend my house, and my family with a firearm if I choose too.

Funny to see the Canadiens get all worked up over guns....

Sabby - get some signs, which can been seen when the motion detection lighting turns on - something which shows a very aggressive dog, and/or clearly says that the house is monitored etc.

I have video surveillance, two german shepherds and a baseballbat - they work for now - donīt think I will need to upgrade too a shootgun, yet

Sorry to hear that...

Fuck motion detectors, opt for landmines! Of course they are only active at night so you don't blow yourself up during the day.

Scary.. glad they didn't get in Sabby.

Motion lights are a good idea.. bigger dog is a good idea.. shotgun is also a good idea.

A few other tips I heard years ago that I always liked.. buy the biggest boots you can find, get them muddy, then leave them just outside your door. Also put $100 in cash on a table in plain sight. If you come home and its not on the table leave the house. Friends and family won't touch it. Someone breaking into the house won't be able to resist it.

Glad your ok..

Sorry to hear that Sabby. A couple of nice English Mastiffs should do the trick.

Be aware that nobody will come to your house on Halloween though... heh

So you always keep $100 cash sitting on your table to bait burglers?

Oi! Anyone would have a hard time getting to our back doors.. the gates are all locked because we have a pool, and we'd be liable for anyone wandering in and drowning Aside from the bars, locks etc on the patio doors.

MCI sent us to a "security class" and the money on the front table was one of their suggestions. They said use a $20 bill though

Some other ones:

Go to Goodwill or an Army Navy surplus store and buy the biggest boots you can find, cake them with mud (maybe a little blood, hehehe) and set them outside the front door.

Buy a huge dog food/water bowl and put it outside with "KILLER" written on the sides.

Get some "Guns and Ammo" and "Soldier of Fortune" magazines and put them in the dashboard of your car to minimize it being stolen.

There were a lot more, but this was 18+ years ago and you know how my memory is

Living out in the woods, I suppose if anyone plans on killing me, they will. I've gotten home many times after 1-2AM and had to walk into a pitch dark house which probably has doors unlocked. I did finally put a flashlight in the car so I can find my way to the house if the power's out or I forget to leave the front light on.

I have an alarm but the wiring is WAY hosed - screwing up lights and phone calls. I'll wait until it's too late to get it fixed probably.

Thanks Guys for the great advice... I definately will put up the motion sensor lights.. NO GUNS I would probably just get scared and shoot myself in the foot or something.

I have a security system that was installed when I bought my house, but all it does is say... beep beep beep FRONT DOOR (or whatever door/window gets open). This got really annoying after awhile with the kids opening and closing doors and windows all day just to set it off and I just shut the stupid thing off. But all the signs are still up on the property.

I'm not sure if that was an attempted burglary or if it was one of my model's psycho ex-husband. He came over and flipped out a couple weeks ago, but he was nice enough then to show up in the middle of the afternoon and ring the doorbell then at least. Also I had to fire 2 girls last month because they stole one of our video cameras and a digital camera and then went on a nice shopping spree with my Visa...

Not to mention of course
I AM NAKED ON THE INTERNET!!!

So yeah... I am definately a prime target for lunatics... I definatly need to protect myself more.

Sorry to hear that Sabby, I agree I think a gun is the best option, but if you are not familiar with guns, then take a couple of safety classes first...

You mean the unabomber?

Ted Kaczynski is serving life without parole in a Federal pound me in the ass prison. I don't think his idea worked out very well. Although, a lot of people read his manifesto!
