WTF.

While this is an annoying problem, this man is not HURTING her. There is no reason to shoot someone here.

I agree with he doesn't need to be shot yet, however where do you draw the line? Would you be ok with someone moving into your house and using your facilities and eating your food, as long as they are "not hurting you", and that would be ok? If they can be shooed away without violence, then fine.

Good lighting is also a deterrent. We also NEVER leave any door unlocked, all first floor windows are alarmed, always double check cars at night.

If it's just a matter of keeping weirdos out of your yard, you can buy no-dig fencing that is not permanent at a big box store, stick in front of the arborvitae and it might just be enough to persuade him to go to someone else's yard: https://www.lowes.com/pd/No-Dig-Actual-3-8-ft-x-4-7-ft-Grand-Empire-XL-Black-Steel-Pressed-Point-Decorative-Metal-Fence-Panel/1000864882

Police told us the best defense is a dog.

LMAO. Defund those police.

I had a friend who was a longtime criminal defense lawyer with PDS, and he also said that, based on his client's information, dogs are the best deterrent. They are unpredictable and at least career criminals like predictability. Unclear whether the random person camping in your yard thinks the same way.

Beyond dumb suggestion.
Poison food given to dog. No more dog.
Axe or shoot the dog, no more dog.
Also most people simply are not frightened by a single dog. Now 10-20 wolves, rotweillers over 100lbs, etc. sure, that's dangerous. One dog, nope.

Should be a thing everywhere, but some places don't let common citizens protect themselves. How odd.

You think criminals carry around poison in their pockets to give to dogs?

You think someone planning a break in or to do someone harm doesn't case a place out? First thing they do is plan a way to take out the dogs, alarms, lights, etc.

You CANNOT possibly be that clueless. Just wanting attention trolling huh?

Seriously? You don't see why having a drunk or high person just outside your window and your kids window is frightening? You are why we can't have common sense government

NP. You actually sound clueless and really dumb. Most criminals don't have a specific target, especially for stuff like home invasion and theft. They case out a street or neighborhood not target a specific person or house. They're not planning on taking out alarms and dogs and lights, they're looking for the easiest place they can rob. Absolutely they'd rather go to the home that appears unoccupied vs a home with lights on and a barking dog. The dog is solid advice.

LMAO learn what NP means, dipshit. I'm not in the mob or involved in some contentious divorce. You'd have to be the dumbest criminal around to have some precise plan for disabling alarms in an occupied home and coming face to face with my German Shepherds vs...idk, going next door?

Start with s motion activated light. It sounds like your yard has the right conditions for sleeping, so make it less comfortable. If you can afford it, a ring camera.

It may sound silly, but I think it also helps to have some no trespassing signs. It gives the signal that you know he was there and will call the cops.

No, you’re the one that’s clueless. Someone casing the place is going to see/hear/discover there is a dog and change their mind and go somewhere else.

It’s not that hard. Are you always so irrational and angry?

Funny. Whatever. Dogs in your mind are invincible amulets apparently, and your irrational reliance on that magical ridiculous amulet is getting tiring. YDY.

Why does everyone assume he wants to rob OP? He’s probably getting his kicks peeping on her and her kids. There might be video too.
