MY OWN CRIMINAL RAT CHAPTER 14


Since this all started I have definitely changed. But that change is not all bad there have been some very good things to come out of this criminal’s crimes against me. Heinz is one of those good things.  Before all this, all I ever had were little dogs that were fun, and yes they barked, but Heinz is my new dog and he does more than that. He is a champion bloodline German shepherd in protection competitions. German shepherds already have that in their blood but Heinz has got it super dosed. He is stunningly large and beautiful with a midnight black face against an overall tan and black, a perfect specimen of his breed. I am still considering getting him formally trained in protection work but I don’t think it will really be necessary. Heinz already has what it takes I can see that.

I got him to stand watch and help out should this criminal try to break in.  Heinz patrols constantly when he is outside and at night he sleeps by the door on the first floor. If anyone comes into the house Heinz will definitely at minimum let me know and I am pretty sure he will do more than that. Heinz is only 6 months old but at 65lbs already he isn’t a dog any stranger wouldn’t be concerned about and delivery people have stopped walking through the fence door completely now. People don’t respect Beware of Dog signs out here but they do respect Heinz. 

I can sleep at night now but before Heinz that was harder to do. I thought I might be woken out of my sleep closer to where my bed is or worse and that wouldn’t give me enough time to get my gun out to shoot him because if that criminal shows up here at night shooting him is the only option or I will be the victim. I have invested in guns that I have gotten quite good at shooting. I am fast with various guns and I know what I am doing after spending time practicing regularly in shooting ranges. The only other thing I needed was some lead time, and Heinz provides that, and after that the criminal will face my gun ready to do its job. That is the other good thing. Guns, I have learned, give you back your feeling of security. No one gets through a gun if you are a good shot; which I am.

Before this criminal I never thought about killing anyone but these two years since I have come to the point where if he gave me the golden ticket to kill him justifiably right now I would take it gladly knowing that I rid the world of a terrible beast. I am not sure whether the criminal really would or would not try to break in. I have heard he has had some minor violence issues in his past but nothing major but he has also been a criminal a long time.  But, I know this criminal is a lunatic so even if he hasn’t been severely violent in his past this doesn’t mean he won’t become violent now. Also, after he sent that other thug to watch the house from across the street I realized this criminal has other criminals in his association and that changes things even more when it comes to what could happen next; you have to be prepared for everything. One thing that I definitely don’t want to happen would be that he breaks in and I become even more victimized. No thanks; I plan to win that battle should it occur.

But as much as the guns and Heinz are good things the reason that they came into my life is not a good reason at all. This criminal took away my feeling that I can walk around and be as safe as the next guy. I will never pay this criminal a penny but for now he still thinks I might. He thinks this because he is a lunatic and he keeps trying. But I don’t know what may happen if he actually ever realizes that I am not paying; thus I know I have to be prepared and I am. Should he decide that he has to fight it out of me I will give him a fight to remember.
