Doggie Door Burglary Entry - Crime Prevention Tip
Dear Foothills Neighbors,
I want to share a crime prevention tip for those of you with doggie doors to your homes. I have been on 2 Safety/Security Home Assessment visits recently and have seen this practice:
The home owner has placed a dog house flush against the doggie door opening. This has a two-fold benefit:
• Hiding a potential route into your home for an offender to send a child into your home through the doggie door opening (or the offender being thin enough able to fit)
• Your dog can still enter the home via the dog house to the doggie door opening, but the doggie door is well hidden and only the home owner knows it connects into the home
This is only a suggestion for those who have doggie doors, and as always, stay safe,
