That assumes that the person in question is one of those that stumbles 
around and isn't instantly awake.  Some of us are instant awake folks and 
fully functional by the time our feet hit the ground.  And don't need 
glasses <g>

Plus, with a Pitcur Hound (Tuff-E, the face of an angel, the disposition of 
an alligator with PMS) and an AmStaff (Cali), we'll have plenty of warning! 
The standing joke around the house is "when Cali speaks, people listen" <g>

Personally, I don't plan on having to use a gun in the house.  Ah, that 
would be the object of having Tuff-E and Cali!  Their bubble zone is the 
fence 150' form the house.  Anyone coming within that distance has them both 
sounding off!
