We’ve had a neighbour move in around 6 months ago - he’s ex forces and has an ex forces rescue German shepherd which is highly aggressive, but he’s very good at keeping it under control, only taking it for walks at night and making sure the communal hallway is clear before taking it out.
He’s very odd, sometimes he’ll come out and talk to us like we’re old friends and invite us in, and sometimes he’ll completely blank us when we pass and say good morning to him. I’m certain he’s an alcoholic, my dad is and I can see all the signs.
The problem is every time he takes the dog for a walk, he leaves the bags of dog shit outside the communal front door - not directly next to it but just off to the side. Sometimes he leaves them there for days at a time - the weird thing is he has to pass the black bins to get to the front door so there’s really no reason to bring them past the driveway or leave them outside.
I’m worried about leaving him a note asking him to put the bags of shit in the bin as he’s completely unpredictable in his behaviour, sometimes he’s lovely and other times he’s really aggressive- he had a mental fit at my landlord when the landlord was installing a new doorbell yesterday afternoon. Landlord wasn’t drilling or making any noise, just one of those stick on ones. Neighbour came roaring out of his front door telling landlord what he was doing was illegal and was getting up in his face.
The smell of the dog shit is starting to drift into the communal hallway. WWYD?
