Here's the scenario..........
The lady who owns the house 4 houses down and across the street from me has gotten married, moved, and rented her home to some other people.
These people have 3 dogs, two of which are pitties, and the other looks to be a black lab (could be a lab mix, not sure)
These people are constantly having to chase down all three of these dogs. They are letting them get loose, I say 'letting' because they are usually hot on their heels running right behind all three who won't listen to a word they say, so they are obviously RIGHT THERE when the escape goes down.
Today I put Phoebe and Orson out in the backyard (privacy fenced) to do their business, came upstairs for a sec to gather some laundry and heard ALL HE!! breaking loose outside.
My first thought was OMG........Tator is being attacked! (tator is the neighbor's little dog and is hooked up in the front yard sometimes)
I FLY down the steps, fly out the front door..........grabbing my walking stick on the porch as I go. Tator is NOT outside *phew* but the three dogs are loose and at my gate "fence fighting" with my two.
As expected, here comes the neighbor man running across the road calling his dogs (who don't even turn to look at him) he sees me standing there with my stick and I feel the need to clarify and tell him it sounded like a major dog fight going on out here.
I helped him catch his dogs, who are quite friendly to all but other dogs, LOL
There is going to come a day when Tator IS chained out front, or my other neighbor's cats are going to be out front and these dogs are going to do major damage!
Calling AC isn't going to do a darn thing since the people do always chase down and get their dogs right way. The only thing it *might* accomplish is making the pitties look bad yet again.
I have no clue what to do without looking like a big butinski
