Even a non-giant dog, barking is going to make your house the unappealing one. The added benefit is that door to door sales drop to nothing as well, but you need a big dog for that to happen.

also 7 seconds? who in 7 seconds can wake from a sleep and be coherent enough to realize what's happening and get to the gun safe and be confident they're not shooting their kid or some other person who may have legitimate access to the area?
If someone is kicking down your door, you're going to have a bit more than 7 seconds to open your safe and get on the phone to the cops. No one is going to be running around clearing their house, but intent and fear for one's life would be pretty easy to articulate if they advance to where you are. And someone who has handled firearms before won't be blasting off at anything that moves in their house in the dark
