    Shop Security Solved

    This is a true story of a garage owner in the Southwest.
    He was sick & tired of thugs breaking into his garage shop to steal tools etc.
    He came up with this idea… He would professionally have cut & trimmed a large fluffy dog to appear as a "Lion". Then he put the word out that he had a new "Mexican Lion" at the shop that would attack anyone who tried to break in or climb his fence.

    The would-be thieves saw the “Lion” from a distance and fled the scene.
    This worked each and every time -- they were convinced it was a REAL Lion!
    Ingenious guy!

    If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

      I'm trying to understand your post. Does it mean the images aren't showing and you're getting a X. If that's the case I can fix the problem. Or, are you looking for suppository directions?

              I can see that as being a problem solver.

                That is a pretty cool cut on that dog for sure!

                BTW. You near Newport or something? Last time I was there it was tough getting to Mo's because of the Sea Lions...

                  I have a friend who has her cat trimmed that way. I LMAO the first time I
                  saw it. That dog makes a better lion than her cat any day. Pretty cool.

                    And unlike humans, I'll bet the dog feels no embarrasment explaining to his Canine friends why he's in drag as a Felis.

                      A lot of places are now setting aside docks just for the sea lions, if they chase them off of the people docks they then tend to keep to themselves on their own docks, but they still smell up the whole area. There are programs that are chasing them out of the mouth of salmon run rivers, they tend to eat a large share of the fish, and have been known to try and get into the boat with the fishermen.
