No, you are not overacting. You have to make sure that your neighbor's dog will not injure your dog. I am glad that the neighbor's dog does not seem to be an aggressive dog. You need to tell the neighbor what happen, so they can be aware that their dog can jump the fence. I hope that the neighbor can find a way to stop the dog from jumping over the fence. I had experience a similar experience to yours, so I know how you feel. I had a neighbor's dog that dug under the fence and got in my yard. He was a black lab that was aggressive. I was always afraid he would get in my yard when my dogs were outside to go potty. My dogs could no longer play in the backyard by themselves, because the dog was always trying to get in my yard when they were outside. |
