Oh my goodness, this post makes me want to go and visit each of my neighbors and tell them how happy I am to have them as such. I live at the end of a small cul-de-sac on 4 acres of land and there are only 8 homes on our street, but everyone has a dog ... or more. Noone seems to care if there is a dog barking and everyone is mindful if their dog gets out of control for a short time, but noone would ever complain and would probably just mention the incident in passing if it did occur.
My suggestion is to go over your neighbors and tell them that since they complained and it is now pushing you to take action ( Kennel license) that you are now free to get more dogs. Give them the choice .... More dogs, or the horses? Sometimes if you give people a choice they are apt to be more reasonable. Good luck ! |
