Before all else, the Number 1 thing you MUST have in order to protect your quad is INSURANCE. No matter how many chains, dogs, alarms, etc you put on the quad you won't stop a determined thief. So keep peace of mind by having insurance.

With that said I leave my quad in my truck, which has a tailgate lock. I also back my truck up against a tree, pole or whatever as added protection.

 

The "chain your dog to the quad" ideas remind me of a story I heard [can't remember where].
A guy snuck thru the window of a house in the middle of the night to rob it while he knew the owners where away. As he shined his flashlight around the room and surveyed what he was going to take, he heard a soft voice say "Jesus is watching you". Startled by the voice and thinking he was caught he ran for the window but he stopped because he knew from his stake out that no-one was home.
He blamed it on his nervousness and proceeded to load the loot into his sack. After a few minutes the haunting voice came again..."Jesus is watching you". Knowing now that he did not just dream the voice up, he shined the flashlight around the room again to see if he could find where the voice was coming from.
His light came to rest on a parrot in the corner. The thief asked the parrot if he was the one talking. The bird replied "yes". The thief then asked what the birds name was, (expecting to hear something like "Polly") the bird replied "Moses". Even though the thief knew he was having a conversation with a bird and he was wasting precious time doing it, he had to chuckle inside because of the rediculousness of naming a parrot Moses.
So the thief said to the parrot... "what kind of a nut would name their bird Moses?"
The bird responded with an air of sarcasm "the same kind of nut that would name their pit bull Jesus".

You might not need the dog, just get the parrot;-D
