Ahh, okay, yeah, that is maybe a bit over-the-top. I would say that I would suggest guns and home-security systems first, though, and only suggest the dog if those things were already present and the person still wanted even more security. Guns and security systems are just defensive gear, but a dog is obviously more than another piece of defensive gear, it's a pet that has to be cared for, which means it takes far more effort and expense than the other options.
