Well I am very lucky that I have some wonderful neighbors. But I would have to say the only ones I have gotten upset with is the owners who's dog attacked Gus. After warnings that they had to fix any damages the dog made to get in and out of the yeard. For a while they tied her up. I can hear her crying and crying. So they untied her and filled in the holes she had dug. But they never did fix the gate. She knew how to open and close it to get in and out. A few of us neighbors went to go have a talk with them. We were fearfull that she might attack again. We all have children and a few of us have small dogs and lots of cats. They just didn't take it seriously. They said that she would never attack the kids. Because they had 2 little one at home and she was very loving and sweet towards them. A few day after that, the neighbors found their 3 lbs chi dead in their back yard. It was apparent that he was mauled and there was a big hole that lead to the same dog. But there was no real proof. We all knew who did it but they still would not do anything. Soon after that she got out again and found herself some kids playing with their new puppy. Charged, attacked and killed it. It took 3 attacks. 2 of them that resulted in death till they came and took the dog away. And why,,, they didn't take time to train their pet nor did they do any real repairs to insure she wouldn't get out. And what really sucks is their 4 year old boy adored that darn dog and was so upset when they came to take her away. I couldn't but feel so bad for him. I mean these people are good people and they do have other dogs,,,,, small ones that stay in the house and are loved and spoiled. But poor Dobie never got the training or help she needed so she is the one who had to pay with her life. It's really sad!
