Using an ATM alone is risky these days, especially at night. Security cameras, cubicle-type walls, and even armed guards have been set up at certain locations to discourage muggers and opportunists, but there's one defense mechanism that could prove to be even more effective - and all it will ask for in return is a treat.
That's right. Photos are appearing on the Internet of people carefully positioning their canine crew behind them while using ATMs, and while these pups may look cute and cuddly at first glance, there's no doubt that any hand that comes near their human while banking is most likely not going to come back in good condition. "This is a good strategy. I would be way too distracted trying to pet the dogs to steal her information," one social media user alternatively stated.
If you're thinking of adopting a dog and need yet another good reason to, here you are. If you've already got one, it might be time to start enlisting them as your official cash withdrawal guard dog. Scroll down for all the proof you need.

Don't Even Think About It
Wow, conmigo los que corren peligro son los perretes, jajaja. I could totally try to take them... the dogs of course :P
And if one of those bites a passer by...you'll be drawing every last dime to pay in compensation!
When You Have Security In ATM
Grew up with them. Need exercise and attention, excellent companions

Watching Her Back
This is riskiest looking one and I love how the dog's posture says "I'm watching you Mr. Hoodie!"
I think this picture is for training purposes for the dog, no one with the right mind look at this to a strange dog, special if it is Belguin Shepard
Two-Sided Tank System
I am wondering how threatening my corgi (basically a furry sausage) would look standing guard at an ATM....
Tbh, it would make me want to come up to your corgi to pet him/her
Load More Replies...I really wish they didn't have those awful spike collars on. It's so cruel and spoils a picture of two beautiful dogs.
Ratlady. I agree. Its only for looks. The dog's are beautiful, spikes take away from their beauty. Not to mention it hurts. Whoever has spikes on their dog they need to have one on their neck real tight.. Then talk.
Load More Replies...I'm sad to see that the dogs wear prong collars. These collars are forbidden in germnay for very good reasons.
Both the collar and the cropped ears are forbidden in Germany.
Load More Replies...Ew. Spiked collars are the worst. Train your dog, don't just put on a torture device.
Awww, ¡cositas del cielo! <3 One day, one day I will have a pittie in my life!
These dogs have prong collars on! Disgusting, painful, barbaric. Despicable owner.
The sad thing this looks like a breeding pair of pitbulls. Have you ever walked into a county animal shelter? They're filled with unwanted pitbulls/pitbull mixes.
Probably rescued from fighting or being bait. Its not the dog's fault. Pits are very loveable. But if u had a bad life how would u react!

The one on the right is definitely the sheriff, he's even got a star on his chest! :)
But they're tied to her so how well could an attack go? They charge and she gets dragged?
I'm just sayin though, if they go chasing after anything, she's gonna be hurtin bad tomorrow.
They were even more beautiful if their ears hadn't been mutilated...

It is incredible in how many ways a dog can help. And all they ask in return is to be loved.

Death from the knees down! Have You ever stood up to a pissed off rat terror?
I think that's a Danish Swedish Farmdog, not a terrier. Much more cool in its temperament. More child-friendly. They're very popular in Scandinavia.

Why oh why do people clip the ears on such wonderful dogs?? I can only imagine it's to make them look more threatening. It really pisses me off.
Do they do this to every dog's ears? They need their own ears shooting off
ATM Security At Its Best
she looks like the wife of that guy that breeds and trains massive security dogs... judging by most of these images, they used his dogs for the photoshoots.
You could be right. They all have clipped ears too, which is a pet (excuse the pun) hate of mine. Stop mutilating these amazing dogs.
Load More Replies...Those poor dogs who have mutilated ears and also have those awful metal collars are are being cruelly treated. Nasty people.
Looking at all these pics with these big dogs I can't help but wonder if these ladies will be able to stop the dogs from attacking innocent people, or they themselves will be dragged by their dogs during the attack. Or maybe these dogs are really well trained to be able to tell the difference between an innocent person and a thief. I am a small lady myself, I doubt if I will be able to control or handle these dogs, they seem too strong for me.
This one bugs me... First off, walking a dog that big in flip flops, secondly walking up to the drive through ATM, and lastly the look on her face reads to me like "yeah, I can do what I like cause I got Brutus here." that last comment might just be a weird coincidence with the dog lunging though.
....I don't think this lady has control over that dog. I would be terrified to be around her.
In holland the animal shelters are full of stffords and pittbulls nobody likes them

The way she's standing, a thief would already get half of what he's looking for... her PIN.
yeah no kidding. thankfully looks like they are doing it just for the pic, nothing on the screen.

He looks like my first dog , they are smart , strong,and in my case, gave a dirty look to an1y stranger approaching me. I was 7 so he knew more abt safety than i did.
and again these f*cking prong collars. The ppl who put them on their dogs should wear them one time to find out what they are doing to their dogs.
I wonder when we will be seeing security guard cats showing up on the market?
there are, different type of guarding though: https://holykaw.alltop.com/cat-watches-fish-market http://www.businessinsider.com/hermitage-st-petersburg-cats-2012-6 https://www.petful.com/behaviors/cats-protect-people/ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-1094977/Cat-saves-boy-vicious-dog-attack-California.html
Load More Replies...I think cutting off dogs ears and having them wear those awful collars is cruelty beyond my understanding. Nasty people.
Why do so many of these feel like advertisements? Like they're staged by a dog breeder or something.
I love all these pictures of the dogs protecting their owners! It makes me long for my German Shepard I had 20 yrs ago. Best dang dog I ever had!
