    That's after he gets inside my garage and I don't notice the door opening.
    But thanks for the advice. I appreciate it.

    if someone ever makes it in my yard, we're both screwed: the other guy for very likely not having a chance to escape from 4 american akitas, & me, because no insurance was willing to accept me & if the guys survives & sues me, I can pretty much file for bankruptcy/
