We do not have a gun. We do have a large dog. Unfortunately, he is of the "How can I be of service?" variety. However, I do think he would sense if someone approaching the house were up to no good.
And he does like to lounge in the driveway on a line, so people passing through probably know this house has a large dog.
I cannot imagine shooting someone over a burglary. Don't know how I would live with myself if I killed someone who was not out to kill me first.
