Hi
Just after some reassure I suppose or to be told I'm unreasonable if I am.
I have posted about next doors dogs before as they are aggressive to my lovely soft dog and its making her scared in her own garden.
Anyway I accepted they were dog reactive and called my dog in when they were out and barking at the fence. I thought what can the owner do. Not much I suppose.
Recently its got much worse. Think it's because they are out all day now with the better weather. My dog is sleeping on the grass minding her own business and they will come out and go crazy, running at the double fence, growling, barking, lunging.
They are like that if I'm just out and are worse with my young children. I was out alone today gardening when they just wouldn't stop trying to get through the fence in an aggressive manner. I was so scared I went inside.
My dc were out playing and he let them out and again they were trying hard to jump the fence and literally running into it trying to break through. I was so scared for my dc and my toddler was frozen crying. This has happened all day lots of times. And other times since we moved here. I'm not sure they could get through the fence but they are giving it a good go and I'm petrified that if they do they will kill my children.
They snarl, bark, lunge, growl. My dc are not even being noisy or near the fence they are literally just playing quietly.
We now can't use our garden.
They don't get walked and bark continually when he's at work. But that's a separate issue.
I feel awful and I'm not sure what will happen or what the owner can actually do.
Dh is not sure if I should have reported them but I said what if they do get in and hurt our dog or children. They are doing there best to get through. I don't understand why they are so aggressive to us when we are literally just using our garden not bothering them. Did I do the right thing. What will happen does anyone know.
Thanks
