Results from a study from Ohio State have shown that neighborhoods with more dogs have lower crime rates.
And it’s not due to the dogs doing their guarding jobs exceptionally well.
It actually has to do with how frequent you take your pooch for a walk.
A neighborhood with lots of dogs will have lots of dog walkers. So, people are out and about more frequently and are more likely to notice something out of place.
Basically people walking their dogs acts like a neighborhood watch.
So, moral of the story, if you want to keep your items safe move into a dog friendly neighborhood!
