Ok- I've mentioned our neighbors a few times on here before. They breed pit bulls...keep all of them except the breeding pair outside in a big cage...and have like 11 of them at a time (11 is the most I've seen, I think they may have less right now). anyways...they keep a breeding pair inside and let them out back often. My dogs, when let outside, Bo especially likes to fence fight/play whatever..they run back and forth along the fence and like bark and stuff...Well, everytime we let our dogs out the neighbors come our and take their dogs in...they yell at them, they just overreact to them playing. They also tend to give us dirty looks as though we are causing the problem...Even if I am just outside, playing fetch with my dogs and they are totally ignoring the neighbor dogs, they call the dogs in...
What I am wondering...do they know something I don't know...is it bad for dogs to interact across the fence? Will it make their dogs want to murder Bo if they ever got out? Is this going to cause behavior issues for Bo by doing this? Other than that reasoning, I don't know why they seem to hate my dogs...every time they see them, it's a dirty look...it's weird. Mike went to pet one over the fence awhile back, and they also gave a dirty look and called them back...it's just weird to me... And why in the world have 11 dogs when you only have time to give love to 2 of them? And why have 11 dogs if they are just gonna be kept in a cage...they cover the cage with a tarp and I only see the dogs like once a week tops..and never all at once...who knows what's going on in there...
I've been fustrated with this situation since we moved in...I just am not sure what to do...confront them about it (about them hating our dogs) let it go and ignore it or what. I also don't know if I should report them to the humane society/animal services about having so many dogs...I don't know if they have a kennel license or not...never got close enough to the dogs to look...but if they don't, it's against the law to have more than 3 dogs in our area...but I don't want to cause a feud with our neighbors...
I'm really terrified of their dogs...they keep them all outside from like 3 months on...don't really interact with them, so little to no socialization, and with the number of them there are, it seems like pack mentality would set it...what would happen if 9-11 pit bulls got out into our neighborhood with no socialization and a pack mentality...what would they do to my dogs if they got out and into our yard...it's just scary...
