That’s so true!
I really feel for the UPS guys that fill in for vaca for our regular guy!
They just sit in the truck and beep the horn scared to death.
My reg guy knows not to go near her and just walks past her and sometimes throws her a cookie.I won’t let her befriend him, so she stays on guard duty, cause ya never know!
I always tell people she bites-just so the word gets around and I let her bark because to me, she’s doing her job.
My neighbor used to have geese as watch dogs...they are the best. Just not as lovable as a dog :)

IIRC, it is (or was) a fairly common practice in the Middle East to use peacocks as watch dogs; the birds are as loud as Hell and cannot contract the rabies virus.
