Have got a neighbour who started of with two dogs?

Question

he now has seven, and is living in a one bedroomed housing association property, which he owns. He takes them out off their leads and has even taken them to the supermarket with him. They bark constantly and foul all over other peoples gardens. I do have a life and am not being a drooney old women, but he is now just having a laugh. Who do I report him to. Have tried the housing ***, but because he owns the property they wont intervene. These dogs are also not particularly friendly and am starting to get slightly worried about walking passed him.

Answer 1

Talk to a sympathetic police officer. If the dogs are making amess of other peoples' yards, that typically not legal.

As far as the barking, you can also report this to either the police or animal control. They will issue him a warning and then if they return, they will cite him.

Allowing your dog off leash in this neighborhood is a $250 fine, as is letting them soil and not cleaning it up. Ask about this.

Also find out what the laws are for owning dogs. Some cities allow no more than 2 full grown dogs unless you are running a rescue organization or are a licensed breeder.

And beware that if he's that disrespectful to humans, he may abuse the dogs for barking. If anyone sees any sign of this, call animal control ASAP. If they aren't open, call the police.

Good luck to you and I'm sorry you have such an irresponsible person living near you.

Basic Training of the Puppy - Read here https://tr.im/SIjnC

The new puppy is certainly one of the most adorable and cuddly creatures that has ever been created. It is the most natural thing in the world to shower it with love and affection. However, at the same time it is important to realize that if you want to have a well trained adult dog, you need to begin the training process right away. The dog, like its related ancestor, the wolf, is a pack animal. One of the features of a pack is that it has a single dominant leader. Your new puppy is going to want that leader to be you, but if you do not assume that role from the very beginning, the puppy’s instincts will push him to become the leader.

The most important thing to remember about training the puppy during its first six months of life is that it must see you as the leader of the family pack. The essential thing is gaining the trust and the respect of the puppy from the beginning. You will not do this by allowing the puppy to do whatever it wants to do whenever it wants to do it. On the other hand, a certain amount of patience is required. Most people err in their early training by going to extremes one way or the other. Although you need to begin the basic training process at once, you can not expect your dog to do too much at first. Basic obedience training is fine and should include simple commands like sit, stay, and come. Remember that trying to teach the dog advanced obedience techniques when it is a puppy is much like trying to teach a five year old child algebra.

It is also important to restrain from cruel or abusive treatment of the puppy. You can not beat obedience into your dog, and it certainly is not going to engender feeling of respect and trust. House breaking is an area where this usually becomes a problem because of the anger that is triggered when the puppy fails and creates a mess inside the home. Although this issue must be addressed without anger, it most be addressed. If you allow the puppy to eliminate inside the house, it will continue to do so as an adult dog. The same thing is true of other destructive or dangerous behavior such as chewing and biting. Do not expect the puppy to grow out of it. You are going to need to train the puppy out of it, but you should do so firmly but with a sense of play and fun using positive reinforcement and lots of love and praise for good behavior.

Answer 3

If you live anywhere near a farm supply or hardware store
(don't know your region or location) purchase a long roll of wire.
A major pet dept. store like PETCO or PETSMART
may have the kit for electric dog fencing. Its about a $100.00
The fence and the reaction you get when the dogs run into it is well worth the first shock and you could probably sell the unit to one of your neighbors. Leave the wire. It will be a while before they go through it and once it's down they already have it in their heads stay out. We use it for goats dogs and horses. Who knows you may want to rent it out as long as your neighbors get their own wire. If it starts up again take him to court and get reimbursed for the fencing from your lawsuit. And for protection carry a small spray bottles with water and vinegar, Its not pepper spray but it will keep dogs away.

Answer 4

I live in Florida and where I live you can own 3 dogs in most subdivisions. However, if you live on an acre or more the number goes up. Someone at the city/county level of government should be able to assist you.

Answer 5

in most towns if you own that many dogs you are required to have a kennel license. You could call your city hall and tell them that the gentleman has this many dogs,
And if they are off leash that is a violation.
I have four dogs and I respect my neighbors. our dogs are on lead or in kennel, and are not aloud to bark after 10:00 at night.
just do some checking around.
you might want to talk to the association also.
good luck
maybe just talking to him might help also??

Answer 6

Try the city. A lot of cities have rules that households can only have 2-3 dogs in residence.

Answer 7

If you live in UK he is not allowed to keep them dogs in a 1 bedroom flat or house unless there is a large garden.

Report him to housing RSPCA chances are he will have most dogs if not all dogs taken away.

That im afraid is cruelty to animals.

Answer 8

Call your local animal control agency. Don't have to leave your name. Just give them his address and what the problem is.

They should have an ordinance on the number of animals he can own, the manure accumulation, and running at large.

Answer 9

Animal control.
You should go online to look up your area's local laws and then call the right authority.
They are strict here in my county and one call to the animal control would deal with this problem.
You are probably going to need to prove his dogs are damaging things and such, though.
If I were you I would discuss this with other neighbors and see if they will ehlp in reporting it.

Answer 10

Report him to the Health Department. They can make him at least get rabies vaccines for all the dogs, and that can lead to furthur intervention!!!!! Only recourse you can sometimes have.
