There's a road that shares an alleyway with my road. A family of idiots recently moved in, they've been a nighmare, building without planning permission, non-stop noise and parties, etc. But the worst thing is that they have a pitbull that they alow to roam the streets and alleyway unsupervised and with no tag or collar.
Today I was walking my Chihuahua through the alleyway, and the pitbull was there, fouling. It saw my dog and ran towards us, grabbed my Chihuahua by the throat, growling. My dog was screaming. I yelled and ran towards them and it dropped my dog, and trotted back into its own front garden. My Chihuahua was shaking in terror but didn't seem to be injured.
I went to the house, there was a man working in the front garden. I didn't recognise him, he didn't look like the owner of the house. I said "Is this your dog?" and he said yes.
I said "your dog has just attacked my dog in the alleyway."
He said, "No, I don't believe you. She wouldn't do that and I didn't hear anything."
I said "Didn't you hear the screaming?" He said no.
I said, "Your dog should be tagged and on a lead!"
Then he said, "Well actually it's not my dog, I'm just working here."
I said, "Where are the owners?"
He said "They're not here."
So they've gone out, and left their pitbull freely roaming the streets, fouling and attacking other dogs. I reported it to the dog warden, who said as it's a dangerous dog I need to report it to the police. I reported it to the police, they didn't even ask me for details on what happened, they were only interested in making me fill out a questionnaire on my ethnicity and whether I live with old or disabled people. Even after I told the policewoman the dog had attacked my dog and was roaming free she said, "So what makes it dangerous?"
Is there anyone else I can report the dogs owners to besides the dog wardens and police?
