Who decided dogs were good at guarding houses? This one can’t even defend itself from a plastic alligator head on a stick. 

In case you needed further proof that dogs are adorable idiots, this one seems to have decided that a plastic alligator is the real deal and should be feared accordingly. That’s the only possible explanation for how hard it’s trying to get away. Seriously, the alligator head doesn’t even make a scary noise!
