to be honest they would have a job pinching this one, he'd be hiding under the bed.
the last gsd didnt like people at all . and the other one roxy who the ex wife got rid of while i was at work was just plain nasty, to everyone not in the pack .... im thinking now maybe the ex failed to be in the pack.
bloody miss her ..... roxy that is

i'm not a big fan of dogs, i'm not even on touching terms with my own, but i do agree i like them more than i like my ex-wife

On a slight aside, have you ever tried kicking in or shouldering a door like they do on the tele ? More often than not it doesn't work but it furkin hurts lol

Quietest way to gain entry via a nice tough door is to jack the door frame apart with a portable body repair hydraulic jack

the tricks i've seen used against my own and other peoples property in the last year woule astonish you. I'm not going to put details on here as it might be educating would be criminals, not that i'm implying any of our members are criminals, but better to be safe than sorry.

I have had insurance rated padlocks costing almost £200 each removed 3 at a time in minutes flat. A friend had a very good quality and well thought out, steel securtiy door backed by a roller shutter and fronted by a heavy steel gate, all secured with 7 lever mortice locks, removed from a wall in less time than it would take to get the jack out of the boot. All caught on CCTV! and no succesfull police action.

This has all resulted on over £20k of unrecovered loss!

and on top of all that my daughters goat that was kidnapped and recovered died as an (indirect) result of his treatment only last week at the ripe old age of 18 months!

The roller shutter on my garage is some15foot wide so thats some 'portable body repair hydraulic jack'

We have 3 dogs, 2 retrievers and a staffy!!

I came into the house through the garage one evening and opened the back door, the dogs had seen me go out the front door and did not expect me comming in the back way ( this is sounding soooo wrong butt bear with me)
This startled them and the ran throuh to the front room and all landed on my wife, on the sofa shaking

Useless!!!!!!!

When i was on the dustcart's, i used to goto a farm that had loose geese & 2 German shepards...
While i was sitting in the drivers seat watching the dogs

2 of the loaders would get chased round the yard by the geese

while the other loader through the rubbish in at lighting speed

There a bird version of piranhas

(RIP) PLANK · 14-09-2010, 22:07

i've got geese, my gader PAPIN is very agresive and scarey, he breaks up fights between billy goats and rams, i've only been robbed twice since he has been in charge. and only anohter £3k down so the guard geese were a good investment

most burglars have problems secreting screwrivers about there person. Not many carry that sort of stuff about. It all depends on what level of attack youre expecting.

We have kit on a similar principle to that. It is not infallible trust me
