creepy experience and missing dogs

[CalifEd]

Sounds like you have some neighbors that like dogs for company.

Some late evening/morning target practice, big pistols and loud shotguns, might be advisable. It helps to advertise to any nosey neighbors they you have a "welcome to my home" policy.

Also, put out a few well hidden trail cameras with motion detection and night vision to help document the situation.
In addition, have a few night vision, motion detecting cameras around the homestead too. They are cheap, portable and easy to set up.

Having alarms only on the doors allows any bad guys to get too much of a head start assuming they have evil intentions.

I would consider adding a shoulder weapon to you handgun arsenal.

So they can break in to steal them?

I keep my guns with me
I wear one of my revolvers all the time!

I think there is a squatter nearby. As creepy as the situation is. I do feel somewhat vindicated because during the last half of summer I thought I was going crazy. None of this was happening when I first moved out here. It’s amazing where I love

So, not only are they stealing dogs, but the weirdos won't even ask if you'd like to try some of the reefer. Of course you would've politely turned down the offer, but still!!! The 3 Ps...puff, puff, pass! So, maybe that was from 45 years ago, but still...
Now, if you find out their last name is Sawyer, run away as fast as you can.

There is something going on that is unsavory. You have had notice. Act accordingly.

There are many reasons I like big fences and locked gates. I do not want anyone coming to my door without an invite, and I want it to be an unholy pain in the backside for all others. If strangers do not feel unwelcome coming here, they are unobservant or my steps are not aggressive enough.

I'm locked up on the "Allegro"...what is it ?

OP mentioned a Tavor, which is either a rifle in various calibers (5.56, 7.62 or 9mm) or a 12-gauge shotgun. IWI makes them IWI Firearms | Milspec Guns, Pistols, Rifles & Shotguns.
The IDF uses the 5.56 version as its primary weapon, but is apparently phasing them out for an M4 clone:

IDF gears up for arsenal overhaul with homegrown assault rifles

I can’t put up large fences or gates. I’m renting the land I’m on
