Not long after I had my alarm system put in, I got a call at work that the alarm had gone off. I hurried home to find two police cars in the driveway and the officers calmly talking to each other. One approached me and told me they had walked around the house and were confident that everything was ok, but they would be glad to come in and check it out if I wanted them to. I looked at the window and saw Chiffon looking out at me, so I told them that if my dog was in there and she was ok, that there was no one in the house. He laughed and said that when they went up to the door and saw her trying to come through the window at them, that was what they'd decided too!

Well I was not home long when the police showed up at my door. The dogs were going nuts barking at the windows in the living room. I had to slide out of the door to talk to the officer. It seems while I was out the alarm had gone off and the police came out to respond to the alarm. Now I had no idea because it turns itself off after so long and they just send the police. Well I could not believe that this officer insisted that I show him proof that I lived here. I had to slide back into the house and get my drivers license to show him. Now mind you five German shepherds were trying to come threw the front windows to eat him. <G> Donna Turner Delaware ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2004.
