yeah, you’re right...got a big dog next door, so lock up the kid and never let her outside to play...i was in my garage last summer, and heard a growling behind me. when i turned around, the neighbors damn black lab was crouched down in my garage growling at me... i grabbed the shovel next to me and went after it( this is not the first time this damn dog came after me ) i told my neighbors about it ( they let the dog run loose, and jump the fence into my yard ) and stated if it does that to me again i will bash it’s brains out...they said they were going to have it put to sleep, as it had become “ out of control “ a year later they still have the dog, and it still runs free....
I had a neighbor that told me,”a dog should never be tied up”. His roamed all over the neighborhood. He loved to poop in my yard every day. This is what I did. I made friends with the dog by giving him tidbits. With time,he got friendly enough for me to tie a rope around his neck with the other end to my car bumper, I then called the dog catchers and had him hauled off. The owner had to go pay($) to get him back. I told the guy I would do it again if I had to. Guess what? He kept him in his large backyard and built gates on the side of his house to contain the dog. End of story. Don’t fight with thoes kind of ‘dog lovers’. Get friendly with the dogs and let the law take care of the rest. That’s why we pay taxes.
