I'm so sorry that those neighbors would treat their poor dog this way. Life at the end of a chain is not much of a life for any animal and not permitted by many cities/municipalities or even the morals of many people. It simply is abusive to chain a poor animal like. I'll bet AC does make them DC that chain!

Unfortunately chaining is permitted here

Well went to check on fence looks like a chain link extension is our only option so that is what we will have to do. AC says I need pictures if it happens again as it is their word against mine.

I always document with pictures. Take a pic of your fence now then the addition. I would never trust my dog out there alone.

I was always afraid to walk my dogs. I have heard too many times of big dogs attacking a small breed dog. We now live in the country and have very few neighbors. It only takes one though. We have some new neighbors about 1/4 of a mile up the street. They have two labs that found their way to our yard. We have a double fence and our yorkies we in the house so it was ok. We talked to the neighbors and they were very understanding. We have not seen the dogs again. But it is very scary when you have little ones...gotta keep them safe.
Hopefully your neighbor will rethink letting his dog out of the yard...or animal control will help. It's hard to know how the neighbor will react..good luck.

I know what you mean, we have lots of coyotes and hawks. I just read on one of the post that the coyotes can jump a six foot fence..we also have barbed wire fence, will that keep them out? I do go outside with them alot and try to watch for hawks.. but not always..now I'm very worried
