Long story, had a issue with a neighbor behind me last summer. They started with on little pittmix and within one month had added 4 more pitts that they "rescued". [2 adults and 5 kids and all these dogs in a very small 2 bed house with a very small yard!] The Pittmix climbed the fence and went after my neighbors chi, dogs okay, we talked to the owner and his reponse was , the pitt mix is a good dog and no one was hurt, no big deal. A week later she goes over the fence again, this time next door to me. When we approach the gate the dog goes off, so she called the police, by the time they got there the kids had grab the dog and got her back to their house. So then they start chaining her in the backyard and she is barking endlessly, a high pitch, drives you nuts bark. When we ask them to make her stop they answer, your fault, we have to keep her on the chain and she barks. This goes on for a month or so and one day I'm in my backyard when I hear a dog crying out, look over at their yard and see one of the pitts pouncing on the mix that is laying on the ground and she screams every time he does it. My first response was dog fight so we call the police. By the time they arrive I realized she was chocking on the chain that was twisted so tight she was flat on the ground and could not move, the other pitt was just trying to get her up. The owner was not home, animal control takes pictures and cut her loose with a bolt-cutter by that time she is gasping for air ,did not think she would make it, but she did and they left. When the owner came home I happened to be outside so I told them what happened and that I had to call for help. They had an attitude about it, even though I explained she was chocking to death. Well next day I get cussed out and called every name you can think of. Animal control had came back out that morning and removed the pitt mix and another pitt, and it was all my fault! Now I never let Luke be alone outside because I caught them teasing him a few times and as friendly as he is ,he does not like them, hackles up when he sees them. And I know they would love to have Luke do something so they can get back at me. They live catty corner from me and that is the only side with chainlink since the wind took my privacy fence down. Do not think Luke would jump the fence but you never know. All my other neighbors are great, we all watch out for eachother and our pets.
