Mike,

When you recommend people consider a protection dog, you have no idea the danger. Ask those who gave you your Mal. Protection dogs are too much for 90% of the population. Worse, so many “working dogs” advertised have poor or dangerous temperaments. I live in the country with two collies and a standard poodle (they are bird dogs) and come near my property and that standard will put the fear of God in you. A dog alone is a great deterrent
