I hope this is the correct category. We have neighbors from hell, will not get into it the past ten years of living next to them, but they are very bad people. The husband shot his beagle out hunting because it was a bad hunter. Shot their cat because it had cancer, and they didnt want to pay to put it down, did call the dog pound when their dog ran away (she was in heat and allowed to roam), because it didnt have tags and she didnt want to get a fine for it. So they just wrote her off. They now have two intact male labs, that are aggresive. EVERYDAY they are in our yard, peeing on my plants over and over till they are brown and dead. Peeing on our tires, and whatever else. We have called the dog warden, all they do is send letters which get ignored. Most recently, one of them bit our EM ON OUR PROPERTY, right by the front porch. Sadie is a baby, and not an outside kid of gal lol. She will go just off the porch, do her business and come right back into the house. Although recently, their dogs were right by our house, surprised Sadie, and in seconds she was bit and bleeding. The husband called his dogs, and put them in the garage. No Im sorry, is the dog okay, nothing. I took pics, called the dog warden, and had the vet check her out. It turned out to be a small puncture, but still drew blood, so I assumed the dog warden would take the dog to keep it for ten days in case it has rabies, since ut has no shots. He said no, he will tell the owner to keep the dog put away for a while and watch it for signs. They had the dog running outside the very next day. He said the most he can do is give them a fine for the dogs not having tags. But nothing else since he has no proof it was their dog, my word and past calls abouyt their dogs is not enough! Since then, nothing has changed. The dogs are still allowed to roam. My husband has very good insurance, which including free attorney services. Before I take it that far, does anyone have any advice on what I can do legally on my own? Talking to the neighbors is not an option, they are the definition of evil
