1. Bears nearby.
2. Cougars or jaguars nearby.
3. You are in the sheep business. Dogs are as lethal as wolves to sheep, and the law is on the side of sheep-raising interests against wayward dogs.
4. You hunt for sport (but I would suggest that the police let you store your deer rifle at the station).
5. Neighbors keep dangerous animals.
6. Neighbors are drug traffickers.
Otherwise... you are better off with a dog.
Only a fool would confront a burglar. The best advise for dealing with a burglar is to get out. Treat a burglary like a fire: just get out of the house. And, yes, get your beloved dog out. Got a gun? Get it out of the house, too.
If you have a charged cellphone you have a silent alarm to the police. You can text to the police, and nobody will hear that.
Using as an example with an unlikely address:
"Burglary at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Intruder in the Lincoln bedroom".
No. If a burglar breaks into my house, I'm putting a bullet in his head and turning him into dog food.
