I am surrounded on all sides by loud, obnoxious, agressive dogs. On the east side is an untrained German Shepard who is chained outside, cold and lonely, 24/7/365, INCLUDING THE FREZZING ALASKA WINTERS! You make the slightest sound and he barks. Constantly. For the next 5-10 minutes. You try to walk your own dog and he barks the entire time. The nieghbors don't give a damn.
To the west, there are two pitbulls which also seem to be untrained. They bark at me too. One of them is a "dominant female" (read: murderous scum) and hates my dog (also a female) just for existing. It has come into my yard and chased me at least once. And about a month and a half ago, it surprised and attacked my cat while said cat was taking a piss (that's all I can figure, cat is too aware of her surroundings otherwise. That and there was pee all over her fur). Poor thing was damn lucky to get off as good as it did. I would kill this scum in a second if I had the slightest reason.
To the south (across the street) is a rottweiler. His owners keep him caged, but he barks too. I walk my dog in the bushes across the street (our properties aren't exactly aligned) and the constant WOOF WOOF WOOF as I wait for my dog to shit so I can go back inside is more than a little unsettling.
North is a useless little poodle that comes out on its owner's second story deck occasionally and goes YAP YAP YAP YARF YARF. Predictably, my dog (a herding breed with very high prey and pack drives) comes off her rocker instantly upon noticing its presence.
I wish like hell the state, or the homeowner's association, or SOMEONE would tell these fucks to keep their dogs somewhat civil. Is it really so hard to just keep your dog inside or somewhere where it won't bother people. Or just get a damn bark collar or SOMETHING, I DON'T CARE, I JUST WANT THE DOG TO SHUT THE HELL UP AND LEAVE ME ALONE DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!
