Perhaps they are not hunting,perhaps it is self defense.

I have not  been bothered by hunters on my finca for 4 years now. I was always polite to them never demanded they leave my land etc but they just seem to have decided to stay away...perhaps it is my pack of six dogs(2of them Rottweilers) and the five beehives. If this is the cure then I recommend this method to everyone! Wink

Hi Bruixot

The dogs probably put off burglars as well, so its a toss up between house and contents insurance fees and the cost of feeding six huge hounds over a year!! Hum I wonder which works out cheaper!!

Is it me or do these burglaries only happen to ex pats, has anyone heard of the Catalans being burgled? Just a thought

G.O.M.

Hi folks:  The guys that paid us a visit neither knew nor cared if we were from this planet or the moon....they also helped themselves from our neighbours caravans and chalets, (they live in Barcelona), and our neighbours casita, which belongs to a local couple. We were the only English "done" that night...out of 6 break ins.  they were of Eastern European origin apparently...(the police caught 2 of them).
Another break in earlier this week in our area, (Tivenys), so be extra vigilant out there.....yeh, maybe the dogs are a good idea.

Liz

I have heard of burglaries of locals as well as immigrants. After talking with my friends about my previous post they suggested that the gaggle of 7 geese and the 12 goats might also have an effect on the hunters!  Smiley

Ahhh Geese now you are talking, I remember how territorial they are and nothing is more intimidating than a goose they don't seem to fear anything, except for an Axe and a chopping block  Grin

Hmm don't know about not afraid of anything. Mine are a nervy bunch but they do make a lot of noise and come threatening and hissing at anything unusual. And as for insurance...well I haven't got around to getting any for the finca for the last four years so I guess that would probably offset the cost of feeding the hounds.

Am I looking in wrong place, or have the last four posts been deleted, including Tony's ?
Cannot see why an advert for a dog would cause anyone to be offended.
