I have no problem with my dog barking. That is why I feed him. My very large dog barks at anyone that comes near the house. Personally he drowns out the lawn mower guy - which I prefer. He barks and I look. Better safe than sorry. If someone is trying to break in, I think he would move on to the next house when he hears a dog barking. Does your gun bark or give you an alarm when there is a strange noise? I don't think so. By the time you realize that there is someone there, it is probably too late unless you are packing all the time.
Also, I do think that these burglars do some kind of recon and have marked the houses with dogs so they don't go there.
