attack was the stray rotweiller!

I've now gone through about a half dozen of their links to organizations that 'agree with them' and the strongest statement I've seen is that the organization thinks that more study needs to be done.

You need to find more credible resources - preferably one that isn't run by a guy who's career is being a motivational speaker... whose writing credits include the following:

• Winning Through Intimidation. 1973. ISBN 0-449-20786-2.
• Looking Out for Number One. 1978. ISBN 0-449-21010-3.
• Restoring the American Dream. 1979. ISBN 0-449-24314-1.
• How You Can Find Happiness During the Collapse of Western Civilization. 1983. ISBN 0-06-859606-5.
• Million Dollar Habits. 1990. ISBN 0-449-21878-3.
• Getting What You Want: The 7 Principles of Rational Living. 2000. ISBN 0-399-14686-5.
• To Be or Not to Be Intimidated?: That is the Question. 2002. ISBN 1-59077-035-8.
• Action!: Nothing Happens Until Something Moves. 2004. ISBN 1-59077-058-7.

Sounds like a guy with a strong scientific and statistical background.

WthrLady, I was looking at the damage to your door and it suddenly reminded me of when a stray cat from many years ago took refuge in our little well house (looks like a dog house) up near the road by our driveway. One morning, I found the well house all chewed up on the corners much like yours was and, not realizing the cat could actually get into the house from under the little roof line, I had DH take off the roof to see what the heck something was after in my well house. Before we even had lifted the roof off, the cat jumped out. Good hiding place, that one and insulated to boot. But, it was also around the time we had the fox's den on our property less than 200 ft from that well house, so I figured it was either a fox or a coyote going after the poor cat. I guess whatever it was eventually got the cat because he didn't come around more than a few more times and we never saw him again (he'd been coming for 3 years).

I found a picture of some of the well house damage from back then. Something really wanted that cat!
