Nookie Posted April 7, 2004 Posted April 7, 2004 There's this dachshund (sorry if its misspell) next door and I feel kinda sad and kinda annoyed by it.The owners are totally irresponsible.They have 2 hotdogs in the backyard ,but then they keep one hotdog in the front yard as well as their cats roaming in everyone's backyard.The one hotdog ''Whopper'' knocks everyone's trash cans down and does his ''business'' in everyone's property!And to top it off when I was walking my dog's it tried to attack my little one!And just beinging defensive my big one tried almost attack Whopper,but I held back her leash.Where were the owners when this happen?I also notice they never take it to the vet,which is right behind us,and has no sort of rabies id or id tags.Thank goodness my dogs are rabies-free ,but what if Whopper bites a small child or anyone in that fact?And their cats also don't have any sort of rabies id.This dog also likes to chase people in their bikes or families just passing by.Even the mailman and cars!I mean if you can keep two dogs in the backyard (this type of breed why is it even outside?) why can't they keep this one dog in the backyard too?What should I do about this?I can't talk to them,because they're not going to listen.I called the police once,but the owner just cussed at him in spanish and gave the officer a hard-time telling our dog comes on their yard too.Only because she had a behavioral issue of running off when the door open,but atleast we attempt to catch her instead of letting her roam in other people's properties.I want to call animal control,but I don't want the dog put to sleep,but then it does have lots of behavioral problems and probably not going to be adoptable,but it can't stay in the situation its in now,as well as the other pets.What should I do?

courtnek Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 as far as making the idiot owner understnd, not much other than call animal control. To keep it off your property, however, black (NOT RED!!) pepper is an excellent means of making him find your yard "undesirable"... sprinkle a heavy dose of black pepper on the areas he chooses to "go" in. A couple of sniffs, and the sneezing fit that will follow, will make him decide your property is not viable...and it wont hurt him at all... Quote
