But I would file a complaint to the Police so there is a record. If you can't resovle anything with the neighbor?? Maybe he sleeps at that time and some adjustments need to be made? Or he could just be sour

I can't imagine shooting someone who is physically attacking your dog would be treated like shooting someone running off with your DVD player. One thing is, I would never display it, since that would be seriously egging this sociopath neighbor on, and you don't want to do anything to set this guy off emotionally.

Yes, we did the police route. We do have the cameras that we are setting up and the audios. He doesn't work at all and is a younger person.

Anyone who threatens to poison your dogs is not worth talking to and must be treated as a mortal threat. Just sickening that you can't let your dogs run around outside now because of this sociopath.

Yes it is very sad that we can't enjoy our own yard. He plays music loud a lot of times, but I don't let it bother me. We have spoken to the police regarding the threat to kills our girls.

Can you plant tall shrubs to block the view of this neighbor?

I would definitely always go out with the dogs to supervise closely, nasty neighbor or not. Sorry you are going through this. :(

I know you are on high alert when you take your dog's out, but you be careful for your self as well.

I would check your local Gun laws first so your rights. You need to know what a threat is. Not every State has Castle Doctrine laws

Welcome to my world....and MY neighbor is a police officer with hoodlum kids that are dealing me misery.

My back yard is "fenced and cross fenced" to keep them from even going anywhere near that side of the yard because I am so fearful poisoned meat will be tossed over the fence....not because my babies bark, but just because they are my babies and I reported the thugs when they shot out my car windows and it pizzed them off. I have the 9 camera security system, I also have a laser system that throws beams across the yard, so that if anyone comes over the fence, they will break the beam and an alarm will sound inside the house. I have every thing else you listed...my privacy fence is 8 feet tall, but that wonty keep them from throwing stuff over tthe fence. My babies do not go out into the "big yard" where I have all their ecercise equipment and fun activity center set up, until I do a complete and thorough sweep of the yard on that side of the house. I set up swimming pools over here by the patio area....the babies all stay over here in this area, where the thugs can not access.......I have this area covered by concrete and flag stones, so it is easier for me to see stuff on the ground......it is pretty dad gum sad when we have to be terrified for the safety of our kids and animals.....and even our homes, as this thug "of mine" was caught setting the local elementary school on fire.

I don't know what Castle Doctrine laws are, however I have never carried a gun nor do I want to shoot one. I used to go fishing a lot when I was younger, but not so much anymore bc I don't want to hurt the fish. Lol.
