My little puppy answers the door for me. My front windows are clearly visible(Split level) but not very much accessible from the ground as they are 7ft up, and Basco pearchs his snout on the window ledge all day and watches. He is a nice cuddly 85lbs of Chow/Sheppard, all black, black tongue, hazel eyes that are tiny with no white, and has pearly white K9's. I make sure to brush them often and he likes to show them off. Stop over someday and see them yourself. Many a soliciters have. Actually a cabby once wouldnt leave my driveway because a girl puked in his cab, I gave him all the $$ we had(I was not in the same cab, nor did I know her, it was a friends Bday after party), and he wouldnt leave.... So I brought Basco out on his leash, and told the cabby he had til 3 to leave or Basco was coming to meet and greet. He left. I did answer the door 1 time at 3am, it was the cops, dropping another friend off, I had my 9mm behind my back, because at that point Basco was not happy, and neithre was I. Not to shoot the cop, just to shoot the kid.
