I agree with Rick too on this one...probably wasn't random at all. Unfortunately, even "most" dogs aren't much of a deterent as we tend to socialize them and a "treat" will shut them up. My neighbor's door was brazenly kicked in one afternoon a few months ago (it wasn't random), with no one home. One of her dogs (still being crated) probably shortened their stay with his barking, but her husband found her "big 'ol friendly" lab outside on the back deck when he got home.
