I feel very depressed and angry. My life long neighbor just called and accused my husband of killing his dogs?

Question

I am Bipolar and manic too.
First of all let me say this: We love animals and even feed his--my neighbors because they are always hungry. We feed stray cats at our local gas station every evening. I spend around two thousand dollars a year on vet bills. We don't even own a gun.

Our neighbor asked us to help find a home for his new puppies. Someone pulled up at our home looking for the puppies and my husband told them where the neighbor lived. The neighbor called us and asked us if we had seen the puppies the next day and my husband told her about the people that stopped by to ask about them because they are missing. She got mad and did not believe it. Her husband called my husband today saying he was going to involve the sherrif and my husband told him to go ahead. I called him back myself and told him that he knew me better than that and he said yes, but not my husband. I am thoroughyly pissed off and am worried they will do something to hurt my dog now. What would you do

Answer 1

Well, you should call the police yourself, and make a police report, and tell them just that...they are just angry, but I don't know why they would accuse your poor hubby of murdering them? I wouldn't worry about it,..they are just weird people, and I would ignore, and be sure to call the police so that the police know you are serious about your concerns

Answer 2

I was just outside this evening looking and looking for my cat. I bring him in about 5:00 so he's not out with the night animals. It took me almost 2 hours to find him, and I cried and cried about it (he was just screwing around, I don't know why he wouldn't come). I was so emotional, I could see a very emotional person who was a little paranoid might be way over the top accusing another person. I'm sure your feelings are really hurt, too, or you wouldn't be so angry. I think when you have mania going, it isn't a good time for you to handle this prolbem, you won't be rational. They may be just lashing out because they are so upset. The sheriff can't do anything if there is no evidence, and he/she may already be familiar with this family.

All the best to you.

Answer 3

These people are paranoid and irrational and you don't need these destabilizing people in your life. Don't have anything more to do with them. Even if things smooth over, these are abusive and untrustworthy people. Don't talk to them, especially since they are involving the law. You have nothing to gain. They should not have left the puppies unattended.

Do not feed their dogs because they can accuse you of poisoning them. Don't leave your dog out unattended until this person settles down. Do not say anything to these people.

I had a similar thing happen to me. The neighbors went away for the night and their dog got loose. I took it in so they wouldn't have to pay shelter fees and so the dog wouldn't get hit. I'm allergic to dogs. Both people had personality disorders and they couldn't believe that their action of leaving their dog outside and unattended (dog probably jumped the fence) could result in potential harm to their dog, so they called the police. They accused me of stealing their dog and they barged into my house to collect their dog. I was shocked to say the least, just like you must be at this moment. I told the police that they were crazy and that their dog was often loose and I was only trying to do something nice and I had left four phone messages for them on their machine. The police told me to never take in their dog again and to just leave him tied up outside and to call animal control. So next time I did just that and they had to retrieve him and pay a fine!

Answer 4

assuming this is a real question, chill out.
I wouldn't worry about it until a sheriff stops by, and as long as you are telling the truth there shouldn't be a problem. But if you are lying to protect your husband they will find out. This is also assuming your your neighbor will call the police. Which they probably won't do because they have no proof that your husband was even at your neighbors house.
Or was he?

Answer 5

First off, stop being angry and help the neighbor in getting to the bottom of the problem. Have you husband help also. It looks bad for you, so anger is the worst thing you can do. Try to put yourself in the neighbor's position and have some sympathy, in the long run that will help you and your husband also.

Answer 6

Call the dogknappers and see if they'll come back for the neighbors, too.
