I think Hal/ WA said it best. Make it as undesirable for the burgular and he will most likely go somewhere else, e.g. motion detection lights at barns/buildings and all corners of the house, plus if you live way off the road gated access, and real or fake cameras placed to be seen. With five years of prior law enforcement behind me I know that 95% of all alarm calls to police stations are false. By the time police respond the thief will be gone, but at least he will leave quickly and not spend much time looking for valuables. Keeping that in mind, keep valuables locked in a safe or very well hiden, Your wifes jewelry box on top of the dresser is not a smart place to keep a long time treasured family heirloom (if stolen impossible to replace). Be smart and extremely cautious of anyone acting strange in the area and asking alot of questions. If you can or so desire a dog that barks at anything that moves can be a real good deterant, but a biter is a liabilaty. At lastly its best to have a neighbor or relative come by atleast once a day to check the mail/paper and look around the place and feed the dog while you are away.
Nothing can make you break-n-proof, but the less desirable your place appears to the theif the better your chances are he will go somewhere else. And odds are you either know the suspect or someone that you know, knows the suspect.
