Trespassing signs, etiquette, good & bad neighbors

[greenmojo]

Here's what I would do to keep your dogs from 'being called' onto someone else's property:
One evening, after dinner and and your normal conversational period, grab a white board.
Sit the dogs down and have a stern discussion about not crossing the property lines, even if the fella next door offers them milk bone treats.
Pull out the deeded plats, and show the dogs where the survey lines are and describe any markers they may see to indicate location.
On the whiteboard, outline different sceanrios they may encounter.
If your dogs are one of the more intelligent breeds, you may even give them a handheld GPS preloaded with waypoints that they can reference.

There really is no excuse for any dog to be unaware of where the property lines are. I mean really.

This is excellent. At first I was thinking I might use different colors for various marks and delineations, but then realized that dogs are color blind, so I will just use labels and symbols. Great suggestion!

I simply gave my dog her own cell phone, and she texts me before she leaves the property. I tried giving the horses their one phones, but they kept texting me for food 24/7

Or a sign that indicates that all of their emmitted RF information (and RFID credentials) is captured and stored if they cross a line. Some nice Yaggi antennas (Border Crossing Style) pointed at the driveway entrance might help.

I get a kick out of those who criticize us for wanting our privacy, safety and property secure from trespassers.
This is simple like my signs say

哲o Tresspassing

哲o Excusses
No Exceptions
哲o explinations�/QUOTE]

For some reason, hunters chasing a wounded animal think they are an exception.

If they are too close to a property line that they can't get off two shots they need to move back.

In Texas or Oklahoma you should have one of these. (This is an old version).

So I guess someone who is lost or had an accident and is seeking help would be banned from that property as well even though they may have thought they had a legitimate reason.

Around my area neighbors help each other as well as strangers seeking help.


I can see where this thread is going to run for several pages...............

No, just one long page with the tbn app.

If I could eye-roll any bigger right now I would... very unintelligent.

The dogs would disappear at night, and the belief is that a certain neighbor to the south was inviting the dogs into his home and feeding them. He also happens to be the local pot and meth-head. The neighbor approached me months earlier, told me loved my dogs and was lonely and didn't mind them stopping in and visiting him.

When the one dog was stabbed with a pitch fork and had been fed marijuana, the Deputy visited him and he told the Deputy he had never seen my dogs, they'd never been at his place and he didn't know anything about them or what had happened. Nothing you can do about it, but keep your dogs away from them -- so like I said, the dogs don't go anywhere at all -- they live in the dog run and are only outside when the family is out or when we are working cattle or on the horses.

Good to see that you are now, keeping your animals under control. Good lesson learned?

If they are injured and find reason to come out here, they deserve to be turned away. Really what do you think we all live right next to the highway? In all honesty if your injured and my place is convenient you were already trespassing when you got hurt!

I do have one of them down on the road to the barn also.
