Patrol

[psalm 7]

My last day off work for a few days it rained all night but is clearing up and a chilly wind blowing . I got camo'ed up and patroled my AO with a .357 black hawk and bowie knife . No sign of trespassers other than a few deer tracks and a couple of varmit trails . But I recomend doing this from time to time Look for cigarett butts , gum wrappers and of coarse tracks . This is good practice and you could find out you are being cased out for a break in or somthing . As well it gives you a chance to try out your gear like I mentioned on another thread .

plus it allows you to learn the Terran,escape routes and every thing else to help you stay safe as possible

I try and do a property walk at least every two weeks, if not each weekend. Mostly, it is to check fencing, etc., but also to identify anything else.

Dogs are one of the best security devises you can have . I took in a pack of Plot hound pups a friend's pack had that he didn't want about 13 years ago they were a handfull . I'm down to 2 now . They helped me keep my chickens safe and gaurd the house as well as run off a intruder that was looking for a empty house to rob ( in my opinion ) . My car was in the shop and wife at work . Here I am one of the best armed folks I know and opened the door unarmed and A big thug was standing there and a car load of druggies watching to see if he could get in . My big brindle Hound came around the corner the thug left quick . I would mention they guy asked for directions to some where that don't exist out her . When I told him that He started in any past me and I was facing hand to hand with a indavidual twice my size . I can't say these rambunctiouse hounds have been more trouble than they were worth . I will replace them but I want commit to a whole litter this time .
