They let their new puppy outside without a leash and it just comes over to my property and gets into my things that aren’t confined to my fence and scares my ducks. This puppy is a pit and is going to get huge. I’m afraid it’ll get to my birds or dogs.
How do I tell the super trashy people that own the dog to tie it tf up? I don’t want to make enemies with these people, but they need to get their shit together.
They’re the only people on the street who don’t have their dog fenced in or on a time-out/leash. The road is incredibly busy so the dog is liable to get hit really quick if it decides to run into the street.
I second the suggestion of befriending the dog: get some good dog treats and essentially train it. Imagine the look on the neighbor’s face if everyone is outside and the dog obeys your verbal commands. Delicious!
So now this guy has to spend his time and money training his neighbours dog? How is that a solution. It’s not his dog. Also if the owners aren’t training the dog, training by anyone else won’t stick. It has to be consistent with everyone who is living with the dog.
