Heck no. Honestly I have NO intention of having yet another animal around here that I have to take care of. Besides, those bamboo groves are quite a distance from the house, so most dogs I have seen seem content to just laze around on the porch, and in this case would not be helpful at all.
I don't know how helpful the dog would be, but once you've got a few thousand critters, what's one more anyway?
