I had one guy once come to my door, my German Shepherd dog was out back, but was coming in just as I opened the door, this guy stuck his foot inthe door jam, my dog comes up beside me, I grab his collar. this guy looks at my dog (who is huge!) and says "I am sorry I think I have the wrong place" I said I think you do, and called the cops right after I shut the door.

That's me...only i have 3 BIG dogs and my DH has guns so i never worry about home safety. I feel quite safe posing here. This is more like family to me than the "web"

No worries with me....The digital camera I use does not have GPS capability ...and... I do not publicize my daily activities/routines as some folks are prone to do.

Please be aware......If pics are taken with a device (aka phone) that is equipped with GPS, the exact location of where the pic was taken can be itentified.

That is kind of creepy Lv2sew2011, a photograph of your driveway and vehicle. I am definitely thinking lawsuit too! I wonder if you can go after the website?

No but just like the internet you can search for your information and this site will come up. I have posted about different things and when I search on ask.com it comes up with my post. So you can be seen even with your pictures.

I agree with everyone here - No worries. They will find me if they want but they'd better have a bigger gun or run faster! My dog, big though she may be, is a sissy and would only lick them to death. It is my little dog they need to watch. When it comes to protecting me, he is a tiger.

Excuse me, I have to ask two questions. Is the big dog you are talking about the one in your avatar? :)
