Advice needed.
The fence between mine and my neighbours garden has come down in a recent storm and my neighbour is refusing to do anything about it. Initially tried to convince me that it was my fence and down to my landlord to replace. My landlord checked the deeds which proved it is my neighbours fence. When I told my neighbour this he said 'Ok, I'll sort it.' It is now almost two weeks since that conversation and he still hasn't done anything about it. They have an extremely aggressive dog that keeps getting into our garden. My son was putting his bike away, with me standing guard and the dog came charging into the garden towards us. We managed to get into the house and shut the door, but we were both left shaken. The dog is also doing it's business in my garden!
What are my legal rights with this? Who should I contact. I am going to try talking to my neighbour again but if that doesn't work, I need to know what my next steps are. I don't want to cause a rift as I do have to live next door to him and his family and the effin' dog!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
