Palmetto, FL - In the Northwest, you might worry about a raccoon sneaking in through your dog's "doggie door" - or maybe a squirrel - or perhaps at the very worst, a smelly skunk.

But in Florida, a sneaky, uninvited intruder could be much more intimidating....

Officials report that the alligator entered the home through a dog door.

Thankfully, none of Dunbar's pets were injured by the shocking, uninvited house guest.

However, knowing that the creature was able to enter the house has left the homeowner a bit rattled - and worried about getting a good night's sleep in the nights to come....
