strange behavior of owner and his 2 dogs
Hi, everyone,
My neighbor has two dogs that he keeps inside his house almost constantly. The dogs are both female, one is a large black lab and the other is a fat Stafford pitbull-looking dog. When the guy first moved in, the black dog was very friendly and the other one, who had already bitten a little girl down the street during one of his first escapes, was mean and dangerous looking. Over the past few months I've seen that the neighbor never opens his garage door, never goes outside his house, never waters his lawn, trees, and plants (it was a brand new house) even though he has an automatic sprinkler system, never ever walks his dogs and never leaves the dogs outside except for about 5 minutes each day. A couple of weeks ago, I saw the dogs outside while he was standing there, and the black dog, instead of being the sweetheart she was, tried to attack me while barking shrilly, like killing me was her sole purpose in life. I have two children and these dogs have esaped before and chased ducks. I am worried about these animals (and about this guy, to tell you the truth). Are these dogs being abused? I called our local cops and they couldn't do anything until the animals actually bite someone. naybor |

I hear evidence that the dogs are poorly socialized. He needs to make sure his dogs don't get loose. |

You don't know what is going on. This may be a guy who has people out to kill him. Or, the guy may be a tweaker or a paranoid nut. You are slightly worried, but you are also curious. I strongly suggest, for your own sake, that you find something else to be curious about. Charlie I'm not curious. His dogs ran across my yard and attacked some animals. That could easily have been one of my kids. I am concerned and will be as nosy as I see fit. |
