My wife and I are living with my parents right now while we find jobs. The neighbors across the street have a dog that they just let roam and is constantly hanging out in and around the road and coming way into our yard, pissing off our dogs.

I don’t know what the fuck to do. My parents talked to them a few months ago but nothing changed.

My dad wants to call animal control, my wife agrees. My mom doesn’t want to do that, because animal control here is just two fucking cops at the sheriffs office, and obviously she doesn’t like calling the fucking cops, both because she doesn’t want to call the cops on someone but also because she doesn’t want the cops coming on our property either and finding who knows what.

My wife is (rightly) pissed, and terrified of a driver hitting it, whether that driver is her or someone else.

Chat what the fuck can we do about this

    Not that I’m aware of, animal control seems to be done at the county level around here. I didn’t think it was normal around here but there’s also a dog a few miles away that literally chases cars so maybe it’s more common than I think
