HOW TO INSTALL A HOME SECURITY SYSTEM WHEN ON A BUDGET


1. Go to a second-hand store and buy a pair of men's used size 14-16 work
boots.

2. Place them on your front porch, along with several empty beer cans, a
copy of Guns & Ammo magazine and several NRA magazines.

3. Put a few giant dog dishes next to the boots and magazines.

4. Leave a note on your door that reads:

'Hey Bubba, Big Jim, Duke and Slim, I went to the gun shop for more
ammunition. Back in an hour. Don't mess with the pit bulls -- they attacked
the mailman this morning and messed him up real bad. I don't think Killer
took part in it but it was hard to tell from all the blood.

P S - I locked all four of 'em in the house. Better wait outside.

Wouldn't it be better to have just an ordinary dog or two
that really barks ?

I simply trained mine to know the difference between when their people
are at home -"friendly" mode; see below- and when they're guarding the
place while their people *aren't* home -which is when they're in "go
ahead and climb the fence, I missed breakfast this morning" mode.

They only bark at deer, coyotes, squirrels (!), and the UPS man for
some strange reason.

Fearless, shameless, ruthless, professional and dedicated to their

When we lived in Hollywood there was a string of burglaries
all up and down the street. Our dogs had figured out how
to get onto the roof from the back yard, so as you approached
the house, you found yourself looking up at two snarling dogs
apparently ready to pounce from above. We were the only house
on the whole street that never got burglarized.

Ours accidentally came through a window at the postman once.
No harm to anybody but the dog, but we had to move the mailbox
to a concealed spot by the garage before we could get any more
mail deliveries.

With the homogeneous brown uniform, the UPS man may look a bit like a very
large squirrel or a deer.

Given the photo of those dogs, I don't need to ask if they eat cats. They
clearly do.

Heh. Our neighbor across the street once owned (?) a retired Bouvier
police dog who'd figured out the same trick. He'd jump from the ground
in their back yard to the hood of their non-operational station wagon,
then use the station wagon's roof as a runway to launch himself onto
the roof of their garage, thense to the roof of the house, and from
there to anywhere he wanted, which was invariably our front porch when
our Greyhound bitch was in heat.

He never did manage to catch her outside, but I always thought it
would have been an interesting cross...

> Nice looking dogs. Purebred Rottweilers ?

No. Pound puppies from the same litter. Mom was a Rottie, but dad was
an Akita/Chow/Pitbull/some-sort-of-retriever mix.

I think they bark at the UPS man because they hope he has a package
for us.

Being a survival-oriented sort of guy, he carries a box of Milk-Bones
in his big brown truck.

Unfortunately true. Also rabbits, squirrels, gophers, rats, lizards,
stray insects, a German Shepherd, one skunk, and one weasel.

They keep trying for the deer that clean off our apple trees every
year, but they're not quite quick enough.

Actually, Dickhead, it was Martin who felt the need to initiate the
cross-post (and an idiot who top-posts is not in a position to
criticise anyone in the first place). The original message was made
to rec.motorcycles solely.

Yes, I didn't notice he had transformed it into a multi-newsgroup
cross-post when I replied, but the comment made to a non-motorcyclist
racist trolling a motorcycle group was fully appropriate.



A: Because it disrupts the flow of the discussion.
Q: Why is top posting frowned upon?

You'd love my Sheila. She HATES cats, when possible the cat is caught,
there is a pitch and after sending the cat 15-20ft in the air the EX-
Cat land 30ft + as dead as dead can be. The cat hits the ground and

I've heard that if you get one as a kitten and lead by example--letting the
dog see you nurturing the thing--that it often works out OK and that even a
hardcore cat-eater may reform.

Something about it being absolutely defenseless plus your example often gets
the dog not to eat it. They might even get to be friends.

But I've gotta assume there is some risk involved. You might want to have a
couple of backup kittens ready.

I'm a converted cat-despiser myself. I adopted an abandoned kitten about 6
years ago--saved it from animal control--and I kind of got to understand the
creatures. That cat is now a companion animal for my mom, who is 75, and it
absolutely runs her life. Still, I do understand nature. A dog has gotta
do what a dog has gotta do.

Naw, they require maintenance.

The reason I found the joke funny is that I did something like it when I
lived in the country. I had owned a bad dog so I put up a sign. I kept him
on a chain that let him come into the enclosed porch thru a doggie door.
When he died I left the sign and chain, running the latter thru the doggie
door. Worked about as good as the dog and didn't eat.

Sheila just kills the cats. She treats them as less than vermin...kill
it and walk away.

That is just cruel to you and the cats. Frankly I'd consider that
animal abuse.

Yeah, I had a hamster several years back (long story). The 2-year lifespan
is awful.

I did admire the hamster. He had a certain purity of purpose. He had a
wheel, and he would just run and run and run. I often wondered what he was
thinking. Maybe just that running feels good.

The exercise wheel had no real bearings -- just metal on metal. I'm
surprised it lasted.

We figure on starting out with a new kitten or two when we have to
replace these dogs with a fresh set of puppies. That *usually* works,
and we *do* have an impressive mouse population, including the one who
currently lives under our bird feeder.

He's (?) so fat that he waddles instead of scampering.

Already got 1, 2 & 3....don't need to leave a note when the dog speaks

helps as well.

My brother has been in trouble with the coucil over his 'killer' dogs. A
pair of Newfoundland/lab crosses who have the run of the back lawn
(1/8th acre) all fenced off. They hate cats and kill them if they come
into the dogs area. It is an offence for a dog to kill a cat, yet the
cats that kill his budgies get away scott free (unless the hounds get them).

Who would have thought that cats and dogs don't always get along.......

Hey, there are places down on Hollywood Blvd where you pay extra for
that sort of thing!

One of these days some beat up old Siamese will come along and if they
survive the experience they will never want to get close to another cat
afterwards.

(used to live with a Siamese that ate dogs for breakfast and was
occasionally seen chasing the odd horse--he basically regarded anything that
came past the fence as lunch).
