Maxx the hero guard dog

[Lab_adore]

Our little suburb has always been almost completely crime free but lately there has been a spate of break ins and car theft. I was home alone on Thursday and on a work call when there was a very strange noise at the front door. Maxx went nuts and his bark is very big and ferocious

I went and looked and couldn't see anything so thought nothing of it. Now, however, we are struggling to get our front door keys to work and thinking back it sounded just like a screwdriver jiggling in the lock. If so I guess they heard Maxx and fled

Yikes!

Good job Maxx! That’s so scary! I’ve heard that the best deterrent is a dog - no matter the breed.

Good job Maxxi boy. Sometimes all it needs is a bark, especially if the people have no idea what kind of dog is behind.
Hope you get the lock sorted and back to normal.

It's for reasons like this that I wish that Xena would bark at front door sounds. Maybe time to get a security system too?

It's why I don't stop mine from barking when someone comes to the door. I also then shut them in when I answer the door, although after the initial wariness they may well 'bounce' the visitor to death!

I'd certainly be more comfortable if Carbon was a little more suspicious, but he is what he is: a big moosh face. He does go all ferocious if I stare at someone that I find suspicious - then you can't shut him up. This is nice if we are alone and someone dodgy comes into sight, and I am grateful. Or if a cat or squirrel were trying to break in, he'd be ALL over that.

But otherwise, Carbon is one of those Labradors that famously would invite the burglar in and show him where the silver is. Not that I have silver, but ya know...

Rourke would be like Carbon if they came in, but will bark if he hears a noise, thank heaven for dogs, it does make me feel safer now I am on my own.

Merlin sounds really scary at the front door or gate... Of course, anyone who comes in is then presented with a teddy, but hey...

Good boy Maxx!!!
