Has anyone had a problem with someone coming into your backyard?  I came home today and found my gate right open empty package of Golden Marlboro.  Footprints.   I am in Elmgrove.  It had to happen last night.  I was on that side of the house yesterday.My yorkie is a runner and thank God we seen it before he got away.  Anyone else have any problems with their backyard or prowlers?????   Now there is a nice lock on the gate.  They may jump but will be harder!!! lol 4951

I have a small lock on my back gate for this reason. Haven't had any complaints from the power company, and my gas meter is on the side of my house not in the back. I wouldn't dare give someone access to my backyard! 4951

@TexasWonder:  Your so right.  There is a lock on mine now.  My gas meter is back there but someone told me they read them from the street with a machine now.  I don't want them estimating so I hope this is true.  I can't get over someone came in my back yard last night.

Years ago (maybe 10?) I was up late, sending emails from my computer in my back bedroom/office. My desk faced the window and I was startled to see flashes of light coming from the backyard. I stupidly threw on my robe and went out there. Two cops had chased someone that jumped my front yard gate and then hurled himself over my back fence to get away. I was shocked! I lived in Sherwood Trails on Sweet Gum Trail, which backs up to the greenbelt. I don't think they ever caught him. They suspected he was the burglar of the house across the street. 4951

@Ann2800: Checking the place for her older friends.  Seeing if the door was unlocked we think,  We pulled up and my son let the dog out right away and caught her trying to get back over the fence.He followed her to where her house was and we sent the cops over. She told him she was playing hide and go seek with other kids.  He didn't buy it and neither did I

I haven't had anyone in the yard. However, we back up to the greenbelt, and there's been kids back there a lot because I can hear them and smell their skunk weed when I go out back at night Emoticon 4951

@Ann2800 you may should call the nonemergency number for the police. Just let them come over.  In case it was some local teen they will see the police car at your house, and maybe that will be a deterrent as well.Locks are a must.I have a planter in front of my gate, and it is weighs well over 500 pounds.  Full of rocks to keep it uprightEmoticon  And behind it are metal rakes, and shoves, and various other things that would pretty much maim you for life if you jumped over in broad daylight, let alone at night.Both neighbors have dogs that are outside at any given time, day or night.  And most everyone on our street will leave front porch and garage lights on all night.  A well lit area is the cheapest easiest way to prevent crime.
 
@Fallon:  I am just thinking about calling them.  The saga continues....I guess they were angry at me for putting on a lock and they kicked a blank in and cracked it half way .....Its really starting to worry me.
