So do I. I called the police station as I rather felt that this is something that should had been looked into....
I mean I didn't dare to pick up the dog because I like to avoid issues with owners and you know being bit by a strangers' dog doesn't sound fun.
I did however went to the house, the front door was open(but the screen wasn't opened) , the yard gate was opened-- I however didn't know if this dog was their dog because the people there have like a bunch of kids ranging from toddler, to almost a pre-teen and the kids from what I noticed aren't very educated on dogs or nice to them...
Whenever I walk down through that area they start following my dog trying to get close with their bikes (and I end up having to pick her up out of fear of them running onto her and end up telling them to keep some distance with the bikes), I've seen them get close to other peoples dog-- but they seem to have a reputation as people generally avoid letting their dogs be pet by them. Not really sure what's what... since I don't really speak to any of the neighbors or before owning the dog go out to the neighborhood much but it's just from what I observed.
They do seem to be scared(or at least cautious enough to avoid) the larger dogs...
She's always growling at them anytime they get too close to her as well...
Either way, if it isn't their dog I'd still rather have animal control or whatever pick that dog up and do procedures to find the owners and contact them about it. Over here, I think it's illegal to have a dog off leash outside of your yard-- but I don't think whomever' dog it was would face penalties as it was probably an accident.... Still they should look into it.
I felt bad for the dog.
