My neighbor called the cops on us because he was afraid of my pooch and the pooch possible getting at one of his cats. Worst of all when the cops came it was on hubby's BDAY (hubby holds a major grudge because of this) plus one other time dog got lose and ran in front of his house of course he saw that and drove to town hall to make a complaint at the dog warden. Of course I was pissed about this but hubby was furios. We haven't spoken to him in two years because of it. I feel weird goint outside and seeing him, it was just a misunderstanding and just want to straighten things out. My mom always told us that in the bible somewhere it tells you that hate is the devils pastime or something like that. So I called him and straighted things out, but hubby is still pissed. Oh well, atleast my concious is feeling better now.

neighbors who don't like dogs is the reason we responsible dog owners teach our dogs to kill on command

Is the dog a dangerous animal..or just Fido going after a cat?
Besides the point is BOTH animals were out..why is it dogs are expected to stay enclosed..but cats are allowed to run free(don't ..please give me that cats need their freedoom thing).
In my town ,all animals must be kept enclosed,unless you are walking them...leash laws apply to cats also..bt I live in Cali..and we have lots of weird laws!:)

NoBody 666 the problem is that pitbulls get such a bad rap. Mine is so sweet she would never hurt anyone why would I get a raging animal when I have a 12 year old kid. What a stupid dickhead he is, really!!

Ok I read the rest... I don't know about the devils' pasttime thing but I do Know that hate is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to get sick...it hurts the hater not the hated, in other words. Best of luck...I don't know any of my neighbors...lol

I had a dog issue in my neighborhood before I moved. The neighbors "Cujo" dog bit a guy I hired to help me with the yard, and he bit me, when I was delivering Xmas presents to them. I had a Yorkie, they didn't like once and someone spray painted in thru the fence with green spray paint. I found the dog under the bed shaking with terror and one whole side of its face green. Well we almost came to blows over all of this. I ended up giving my Yorkie away, so they wouldn't call on it, and their sister finally took the "Cujo" dog away. I just made every effort to try and get along and be nice. It's horrible when the neighbors cause you trouble.

You were right to mend the fences if you felt the need to do so .You are a much bigger person than me though I must be honest.I probably would have invested in a stuffed cat and played fetch out in the front yard.But I'm mean.:( I am proud of you though....Good going.:)

dancingd, you asked:

why is it dogs are expected to stay enclosed..but cats are allowed to run free

I think the answer to that is because that dogs are known to attack people. I'm not saying that all dogs do. Please don't think that.

I, personally don't know of any cases where cats have randomly attacked anyone.

I witnessed my mum being bitten by a dog. I know of many people who have been attacked by dogs but I don't know of one single person who has been attacked by a vicious cat. Do you? Does anyone?

I agree with Determinator. I've not seen or heard of killer cats, but I have heard of many killer dogs.

My neighbors, the cat lady, hated my dogs too. I put a fence around the yard, then I put water out for the dogs. The cats come into the yard the dogs kill them. Opps, sorry to bad. That is what the cat lady gets for not training her wild cats.

No cats don't attack people but scream all nite during mating. And cause thousands of dollars worth of damage to plants and trees in the yard. My bro has lost a huge pyramid cedar as neighborhood cats go on the roof and spray it. They have dug up and peed on thousands of dollars worth of bedding plants in their yard too. Their cat that is in the house or on a leash has been attacked by cats running free and cost them hundreds in vet bills. So cats do cause problems and damage.

It's true,I've never heard of a cat attacking anyone ...well not in a horribly harmful way.And the word PIT BULL wasn't mentioned untill later.
Yes I know there are MANY sweet Pit Bull dogs...but really now..most people are a bit intimadated by seeing one roamimg the streets.So,if you do have a Pit Bull dog,just to keep your dog safe from accusations ...I'd keep him in your yard.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
