Dog related and long.....

I'm pretty sure what to do but need reassurance, I live in a cul de sac, all the kids play out and it has always been a good place with good neighbours. Next door has a new boy friend, the fence blew down and we decided to leave it till her dad could get down, I had an old border collie and she said not to worry about it, then Friday I had the dog put to sleep because of dementia, neighbours helped bury her in the garden and his spade got broken! I was quite happy to replace it, and apologised.
Next thing he's banging on the door at 8 am screaming nonsense at me.
I find out later that the dog poohed on their patio last week and he picked the night I buried the dog to go nuclear at her about it. He then proceeded to pick up dog pooh and scatter it on my doorstep while we were out. Dh wants to kill him I think that as he's not meant to be living there we replace the spade and fence and tell him if he comes anywhere near our house, property or children we will take out a restraining order.
I believe he is trying to alienate her from a good community but am not willing to sic housing on her as she is claiming.
An order would obviously cover the whole road.

Focus. The actual 'triggers' to his behaviour are all actually incidental. Police. Threatening behaviour. Don't faff about.

My thought is "would a rational human being act this way to this trigger?" Would a rational human being come round and go daft for a bit of dog poo and proceed to scatter it on your doorstep (Shock) ? Answer? No.
I would do what I could to keep this nutter away from me and my family!

^^ wss

And I'm really sorry for your loss. You don't need an idiot to deal with on top of missing a loved pet.

This is not dog relayed at all, it is dickhead neighbour related!

Restraining order all the way! Report to the police, it is up to them how they deal with the issue of him not being meant to be there, entirely their problem!

Thanks pineapple, I've had better weekends! I'm guessing I'm just the first target cause I'm closest. I think it's about keeping the neighbours away from her and the kids, it's always been a support network for all of us!

Thanks all I knew I was right, obviously I've had to explain to my seven yr old that he can't play out with the others today, psyco goes near him there won't be enough of him left to restrain!

Neighbours gone away and he has got an American pit bull type dog in there! I'm guessing he's not done, I'm waiting for dh to come home.
Fencing can go up Monday replacement spade here, can't get to my bins!

Considering burying the fucking spade in his head, no great loss as far as I'm concerned!

Did you say her dad was coming down? Can you have a word with him about the boyfriend.

Wherediparkmybroom · 07/04/2014 18:42

I will do but I really need to vent, I haven't left the house all day! I really don't want to drop her in it but this is not fair on me or the kids, plus it is a really small town do I really want to be known as a grass as I run a local business?
