It's been an effective combination for us.
Great set-up. What about the windows?
Unless the intruder is a 6 year old kid, no worries.
First of all, the windows are only 27 inches wide and 24” deep because it’s an old log house and there’s *two* sets of windows, external ‘storm windows’ having been installed long before I got here and secondly, no matter what window you pick to come in, that dog up ^ there is going to be on the other side waiting to ‘greet’ you.
[he’s *not* a for-show-only “intimidation” dog..far from it]
Whatever comes through the window, he gets to eat.
So, go ahead and poke an arm in.
He goes so berserk when people come in the yard and hits the windows so hard that I don’t put the blinds up until I know all the delivery people have come here for the day because even though there’s window between him and them, they still won’t come in the yard so unless I want my packages left in the lane, I have to keep him from being so ‘visible’.
