I have a sticker on the back door that has an image of a revolver looking up the barrell and it says, "Do you believe in life after death? Trespass here and find out!" It's a little misleading as I don't actually own any revolvers. They would be looking up a semi-auto or a 12 gauge.
I also open the door for strangers holding back my lab/pit mix and acting like I'm having a tough time doing so. That usually keeps any sales calls very short.
She will also sit behind me in the foyer quietly on command but in view so that's good when needed too.
Everyone should have a recue dog for home defense. They are good for the soul and pay back to you way more than they could ever ask.
