Does anyone have any experience of reporting neighbours?

I found out yesterday that my granparents are having problems with their neighbours. The neighbours in question have always been very noisy and dirty in general, but tolerable.

While my grandparents were away for the weekend, the neighbours Alsation got into their garden, because the man next door had piled all his junk against their wall, and the dog used it to climb over. He totally trashed their garden- my Grampa had worked very hard on it, despite failing health, and now all his plants, lawn and veg is wrecked. The neighbours said nothing when they came home and saw it, and haven't apologised.

My Grampa has asked them to move their junk so that the dog can't intimidate them, but he has done nothing. They love sitting in their garden, but can't go out now because the dog stands on the wall snarling and pacing.

Their kids have also starting sitting on the shared wall in the front of the houses, which is technically my Grandparents wall. When my Gran asked them to move because there were several of them making alot of noise, she got told to f. off.

I am fuming, but my Gran (who is normally very forward) won't say anything because one of the parents has recently had a death in the family.

Sorry if i've waffled!

Does this sound like something i could report? It's not council accomodation, but surely something can be done?

Also bear in mind that if you report neighbours & then want to sell the house, you should really tell any prospective buyers. If the buyers found out that you had problems with neighbours I think you might be held responsible (or something like that) for not telling them
