"Look out for people with masks"
Well, that didn't age well
Had a friend of the family that was actually able to get into my uncle's house through the doggy door. He is about 6 foot 4 and probably 220 so not a small guy. It is possible.
Just get off Facebook in general. Life is so much better without it.
You guys are great together! Nothing like father and son bonding allllll the while making a hilarious video! Keep it up
I have witnessed North and South Carolina slammed shut for 2 days for 3 inches of snow.
Seriously that kid has some beautiful, lustrous hair!!!!!
Dad ……..not so much.
Look out for people with masks guys remember
i always think the under paid producer has such a good head on his shoulders for a kid his age…. but then i hear him say things like "gumption isnt a word" and i remember that anyone born after 1997 is worthless…
A dumbass would-be burglar once tried to rob a home In “TEXAS†Owned by parents of a U.S marine, They had a U.S & Marines corp flag In gunland Texas…. Ao of course karma happens and the marine just happened to be over there after getting back from a tour overseas, Somehow the burglar made it out in cuffs instead of in a bodybag. Lol
The best defense against theft is to be to poor to afford anything of value! If thieves came into my place they would leave stuff behind along with a note telling me they are sorry🤣
A former coworker, someone did try going in through the doggy door. Dog bit him.
If I see work boots on the porch of the place I’m about to rob, I ain’t robbing that place cuz they ain’t got no money to get presents in the first place!😂 I know from experience that in most cases work boots = no money lol.
Tell the police your going on vacation, they will do drive by and know if the car in the driveway or the extra light, is supposed to be there or be on.
Post vacation pics after you make it back home. Enjoy your vacation and quit letting the world know you're going.
Unfortunately, if ppl break into our homes at Christmas, in C.A. and we defend our property, we get taken away by cops
Put gun boxes in the trash
i lived in an apartment complex that had a rash of burglaries, no sign of entry and doors still locked. Some of the residents caught him. He was putting his small child thru a very small kitchen window, who would unlock and then re-lock the doors for him.
I love this video rotflmbo 😀 I don't have a doggy door , but if. I did, my big Dobies would probably shut it on the the burgler after they crawled through 😜 through.
Leave the tv or talk radio on where it can be heard from the entrance/s to your home. They will hear voices coming from the house and even if they know it's the TV or radio they will think someone is home. I like to leave it on anyway because my bird gets lonely when I'm not in the same room so having a tv or talk radio on has an added bonus for me.
If you do have big boxes or other trash that you don't want burglars to see you could take it to the dump or recycling center yourself.
And when you get in your car, lock all your doors and when getting in, instead of unlocking all doors, unlock only yours so nobody can get in your back seat as you’re getting in. I read about a girl wishing she had done that when she was alone one time and I’ve always done it even before I saw her story, so thought I’d share just in case. Even though everyone who watches this channel probably has the common sense to already know that. Lol
🖤💙🖤💙
Or just get two pit bulls and call it good
My Uncle was an office with the Arizona Dept of Public Safety and they bring their cars home. He parked his patrol card behind his jeep and then next morning his jeep was gone. They target police.
Burn the boxes!
WTF….
Nice Redwing or Wolverine boots outside? Shit, they'll steal the boots and resell them.
Doggy door? Favorite home invasion vector of midget burglars. Mine has a guillotine that comes down if it doesn't detect King's chip.
Simulated auto alarm LED pucks. Guess what — thieves also shop Amazon. They know about these,… and laugh
post vacation pics after vacation
amazon wants us all to feeeeeel safe
Is it a good idea in IL to have a sign that says intruders will be shot ?
You just take your kid with you and stuff him through the doggy door and have them unlock the door…lol!!
How old is your son in this video?
Lol gift wrap a box of dog poop😂 and leave it out on the porch for someone to take. Hopefully there's those that have friends who work for FedEx or UPS that can give you some boxes and labeling to use to make the package look legit.
The problem with a doggy door is that you dont have to be able to fit through it. Unless its real small you can usually reach the door handle and unlock it. Im 6'3 300lbs, but i can still reach through and grab the deadbolt
Good tips! Another tip might be to use those timers on outlets that automatically turn on whatever is plugged into it for certain hours of the day. Plugging in a lamp and setting it to turn on at night (especially if you are away for the holidays or on vacation) could give the illusion that somebody is home. It might be more effective to use more than one lamp as well!
You can also unlock a door through a doggy door…..
Not that I'd know.
Who comes to Boise for a vacation there is nothing fun here it's boring and who is gonna be jealous that you came to Idaho plus their is a bunch of people who moved from California so now there's a ton of bad drivers and also we have one city and it's pretty small and there isn't much to do there
Can you Do a Vid on how to clear a House? I.E intruder middle of the night in tenbuck2…
about large doggie doors – they send a kid in to open the door.
I always stayed away from signs that had "veterans" or "beware of owner" on it. I could get into a car with a blinking light without the alarm going off. Houses too. ANYTHING that made noise, or that informed me of guns, I'd avoid. In neighborhoods that looked rich, alarm companies signs made it easy for me to know how to avoid get passed them. Simply, own guns or dogs or both, then I'd avoid
I can fit though a medium dog dog door
Secure ground level windows with double bolts, leave the radio on, place dummy's sitting on the living room with a reading lamp, use fake alarm systems decals if you don´t have an alarm, fake cc cameras with flashing led´s, cut branches from trees next to your home that could allow access through the second floor if any, ask someone you trust to come stay in your house if going on vacation, time automatic sprinkler to go on in the evening probably some soggy ground might deter some picky rat, put a sign up that you are a Jehovah´s witness or a fan of duck dynasty, place a fake eviction notice on your door they will think your broke, make a fake burial hole in your yard and leave the shovel by it, put a lifesize cutout of cosby peeping trough a window… I´ll think of more
Ive went through a doggy door
I know this is old but Damn Mike! Where do you live that cops are afraid of people knowing that you are with the police? I have a sheriff up the street who has a take home car. I have a local police officer just down the street. And two fire officials as well. I feel very safe with them near by! And we put gift cards on their windshields for coffee & food, Marked from from secret Santa!
If you put a I'm a cop sign in your yard you gonna find a badge hoochi on your porch when you are 10 10
A pair of size 16s and a package of Magnums 🤣
OMG LMAO
I would just lay out bear traps and dig a moat around your house. I don't think anyone would want to go through the hassle lol.
oh fuck, would it be illegal to say you're going on vacation, and just stake out your own house for burglers and shoot the shit out of them if they broke in?
it's not stalkerish cause i'm just drinking and watching your videos as they come up as next per youtube, but super cute. this is just funny.
I used to live in an apartment complex didn't have assigned parking just where ever you found a space but had oil put on windshield because I parked in a spot that never had a car so I parked elsewhere next time then week later someone else parked in that same spot all the windows were broke out tires slashed and the inside was on fire glad I don't live in that area anymore . Did learn oil ruins winsheld wipers happens during the rainy season .
what rhymes with oranges? four inches.
Long and narrow gravel driveway with a long steep hill. No one comes up. 😅
