What Type of "Security" Dog Do You Have?

Our friends at dropcam shared this cute infographic with us and asked this question: what kind of PUPtector do you have? After talking it over it over with Daddy, we decided that Coco is a Fence Hopper, always ready to bolt out and protect us from a world full of pesky varmints.  This happens on a daily basis.  We let her out back to go potty and she ends up chasing any number of tiny to mid-sized creatures.


One time Coco escaped to puptect us from the mail carrier.  He was walking up to our door to deliver a package, but Bill's daughter accidentally left the door cracked.  Coco took the opportunity to "Fence Hop" and scare the poor guy half to death.  Kristin walked outside to find the mail carrier holding the package in Coco's face, while Coco barked her head off.  Coco, like a good girl, came when called and all was well.  In Coco's mind mission was accomplished.  


After learning a little about dropcam this is what interests me: with the dropcam home security system you can keep an eye on your home (and your pets) while you are away.  They offer cloud recording and with the app you can receive custom alerts and control your cameras from any device.  

Even with Coco's Fence Hopping, I'd love to get a dropcam system.  Now just to convince Daddy...

  1. Just saw this the other day but love it! Dakota would be the "Barking Buzzer", barks at anything and everything!

    1. Coco barks mostly when the door bell rings. Then she goes crazy. I don't know how the parents of the Barking Buzzers do it!

  2. Miley and Bruin are social butterflies while Maggie is a barking buzzer!

    1. So many social butterflies. I have to admit, I'm a little jealous...

  3. Coco sounds like a good watch dog! We have two social butterflies who think everyone who comes to the house is here to play ball with them. Luke is turning out to be a Barking Buzzer...we're hoping he might outgrow that tendency!

  4. Do opposites attract? Joe is definitely the barking buzzer and Sable the social butterfly.
    Good girl Coco!
