They can also just pull-up the axles and take the dog, collar, and chain.Quote:

I have cameras on my dogs. the neighbor on my left has 4 or 5 great danes as guard dogs and they are damn good at what they do. The neighbor on my right is a former police chief and has been awesome on keeping an eye on my dogs, and not in a bad way, the last time we had a bad storm that put trees through peoples houses he was shining a light on my dogs making sure they were ok and has even got out with me in the yard. And the neighbor on the other side of the woods behind us is a current county cop. Needless to say we don't have a problem with people stealing things or dogs in our neighborhood. All of out neighbors know who is and who isn't supposed to be here or in the neighborhood. It does suck being surrounded by current and former cops but at least I know my property is safe for now.
This is my method that I use.... -- All you need is a regular collar and then add an o ring to it. And get a lock and connect the lock to the o ring and the collar ring and the person wont be able to take the collar off. But still all a person needs is a chain or lock cutter , but my method can stop some random scum bag dog thief without any supplies on him to cut a chain or lock....
but if you are really worried you could try getting a camera in the front of your house and back if your really worried. and also if you can get it setup so that it gets a good view from the street to get a license plate but it will cost some decent money...
Just like Jack said, live in a good area or a rural .
Or live in a area with a whole bunch of old folks, because they are always home and are 24-7 windows peepers. ( I love them)
Another option would be put a chip in your dogs, and also secure your pens, although if a theif really wants your dogs they will get them but this is were the old folks come in, it will take alot of effort to steal my hounds, and if my dogs don't bite the crap out of you then by the time you steal them the old folks have already called the boys in blue.
That is actually a really great idea--a microchip.
