Hey there yall So I came to complain about my horrible neighbors About a year and a half a ago, we got new neighbors. No big deal except they have two aggressive dogs Two BIG aggressive dogs. The kind of dogs that lunge over the 3.5 foot fence in the front yard just because your getting out of your vehicle and your parked to close. Well we ended up putting up a new privacy fence in the backyard because our dogs where fighting with theirs through the chain chainlink fence that was falling apart. No offer to help with the costs, no offer to help with labor, no thank you (because it originally was there fence we where replacing anyways) Now the dogs are still attempting to fight with ours despite have a solid 6ft privacy fence, so much that they're weakening the boards on it. Now this is a new fence (God I hate these neighbors) I guess my question now is because these dogs are destroying our brand new fence, do we contact the law? Because any sort of communication is useless because they don't care what their dogs do. I feel like pulling my hair out at this point Edited at July 11, 2025 01:36 PM by Fairytale Paints

I think you can, because if you fixed the fence, to stay AWAY from their dogs, it's property damage. Or, you could get them in trouble, because their dogs are trying to fight yours, and if those dogs attack your dogs, who's to say they won't attack you? If your neighbors aren't actively trying to contain their dogs, you could call the cops, or animal control. I would talk to a cop first, see what could be done. Even so, you can still get them in trouble because of their dogs, if they're not trying to contain them, or stop them from attacking you, your family, and your dogs.

Yes. Police may be contacted at this point for property damage at the very least, and you should be reimbursed. If you can get a video of the dogs doing this, it'll be even quicker and easier for law enforcement. They might also go after them for endangering and certain animal stuff, but it all just depends. . It's not even a "might", it's a definite "yes." Edited at July 11, 2025 01:26 PM by Versailles
