Ferocious dog next door keeps jumping into garden and attacking us

[Putthatbookdown]

Large dog (rotweiler) is not well-exercised etc by owners and getting more fierce We are too afraid to go out into our back garden : aneighbour alerted us just inthe nick of time the other day and we returned home to find the dog pounding at our back door No doubt he would take a large chunk out of us if he could. We have thought about a fence but fear it would only make things worse as he would just go at it till it breaks .Anyway why should we have to pay for a fence ? Council not being helpful.

Have you spoken to the animal control officer at the council. If they aren't helpful contact the police.

Do you own your house? Can you afford to put in a fence? If yes to both, I think I would.

Contact the RSPCA too.
