Dogs make great alarm systems
^^^THIS! Ask any criminal and they'll tell you the first order of business to keep them out of your house is get a dog.

But as Onward Allusion said, having your sidearm on you at all times is the best assurance you can deflect the threat until you get to your shotgun. My best friend thought I was a bit obsessive for carrying my handgun from room to room and while letting the dogs out... until I chased a pervert away from her back bedroom window. You just never know.

Personally, I'd load that shotgun with 00 buck, but #2 is nothing to sneeze at. But make sure you pattern that gun with whatever load you choose at typical self defense yardages.... say 3, 5 and 10 yards.

Do practice. A lot.
