How can I keep my neighbors dog off my property?
Posted October 8th, 2009 by admin 13 Comments »
I live in a very rural area . My dogs are trained to stay on my land and will not cross the fence line. My neighbor has a large unneutered male that comes over and bothers my dogs, does his “business” on my property marks his territory (My outdoor furniture etc). It has gotten to the point I cannot go out with the dogs without him coming over. I contacted the neighbor and was told buy a BB gun and shoot him. I have yelled, thrown rocks and done everything humanely possible. There is a fence but the line is a long one and he just keeps finding ways to get in. He is not a mean dog, just poorly trained and generally dirty and unhealthy . The neighbors have a history of dogs getting hit by cars, dieing from eating rotten animal carcas’ and yet they let their dogs run wild. I know I have a right to shoot him if he is on my property but I just do not want to go that route.
