Wait, I have stayed quiet reading this thread every so often but that there is a WTF comment. Encouraging violence is not to smart at all. Dogs get teritorial enough about homes and yards without encouraged violence.
Odds are against it happening- what happens if it gets loose or someone wanders into the yard for whatever reason besides messing with your shit? While on that, what about when you take it on walks or whatever, even with a leash?
Very last comment is more personal as recently I was nearly mauled by a pit-lab mix. Guy (of good size) was walking his dog on a leash down street. I was putting something into mailbox. As I began to push back, I heard him yell something or other and heard barking. To late, it hit my wheel and about knocked me over. He came running and yelling. I grabbed my pepper spray I keep in my cushion and sprayed the dog. Dog yelped and let go. He proceeded to yell at me and the dog. Go figure. Guessing the dog pulled out of his hand with the leash.
