From experience with that cat, it will only happen once or twice and he will learn, same thing with mine.

I have a two camera wireless unit (which is capable of using 4 cameras) I got through Lorex Technology on sale for $299. That's for the 2 camera, the DVR unit, and all hardware. We originally got it to catch the brats who were smashing our mailbox. My hubby asked what we were going to do with the extra camera and I said, "oh, I don't know. Just leave it unattached." One evening I came home from work, sat down at the TV and had a live feed of my chicken run on a monitor under the TV!! It has come in very handy, not just entertaining. I've caught them trying to kill a snake (which I then went out and finished off for them), caught them frozen like statues for several minutes which led me outside to find an eagle perched in a tree, and caught a possum coming up the run one night after they were locked up. I highly recommend the Flir system by Lorex if you go that route.Today's download didn't show the dogs. I moved the camera a few feet to the right, toward the power line easement side, pointing more to where my land slopes down to that road they come and go on. We'll see what we see, I guess. I'm thinking about getting a security camera setup with up to 4 wireless cameras that I can watch with my computer in the house. Would be a bit easier than a game cam, always going down to where it is to get the SD card and take it to the house.

Yes, I agree that they will probably be back. I went down the power line easement to take photos of the overgrown area for the bush hog guy and I looked and didn't see the black dog. Some of the vegetation is dying back, partly from the drought conditions and partly because, well, it's fall. There are areas I can't really see, but I could in most of them. As far as the police, I was only saying that others would say to call A/C but I'm not. I'm not keeping them in the fence (obviously, I can't since they got in and out on their own) to hold them for the officials.Sorry you had to wake up in that manner. How frustrating it is to live like that. When I finally shot the dog that was terrorizing my property for a month I had such an overwhelming feeling of relief although it bothered me to have to shoot an animal. Hopefully you will find the black one dead. Don't bank on them being too scared to return though. I popped shots at the neighbors dog 3 times and she kept coming back.
Edited to add that I would probably leave animal control and the police out of the situation. I know it all depends on how they are in your area but in mine I called animal control twice with no help, and called the cops 3 times without help. On the third call to the cops I got a little testy with them so they told me just shoot her. (They said they wouldn't step in unless it was a violent breed; pitbull, german shepherd, etc.)
