I've been robbed a couple of times myself. It's not a good feeling
to know someone helped themselves of things you've worked so hard
for. I know if I came home and someone was in the act of *shopping*
in my home/shop, I don't know if I'd have the restraint to keep my
foot
from slipping either. Knowing how the guy feels *now* I believe I
would
think twice about ramming their vehicle though.


I remember a story about someone else using a truck to hold a robber at
bay. Good thing he only broke his legs, or he could have been in real
trouble.


Twenty years ago when I was still working with the State's K9s I had
a Malinois that I was training for body recovery. I came home one day
and some kid had broken into the garage only the dog was also in
there. When I opened the door, the dog was sitting patiently looking
at the kid who had climbed on top of the work bench in the corner as
far as he could get from the dog.


I told the kid he could get down while I called the SP and the kids
says - "No way man - that dog is going to eat my balls."


~~ snicker ~~


Friend of mine worked in Puerto Rico for a while. His neighbor came home
from a long weekend to find his door open. Bracing for the worst, he
sees a
guy sitting at the end of the hall, the other end of the hall from his
Doberman. The guy had been in the same position for 2 days. So had the
dog. The guy felt so bad about the thief, that he let him go and said
next
time the dog gets him.- Hide quoted text -

Hate to do it to you Bill, but I call bull**** on this one.. Your
friend also had cows it would seem


Nope, I believe my buddy. The dog probably went and had a bite to eat and
drink, but came back to a very scared thief. And the thief may warn his
buddies about the bad dog.
