    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    Also, I've had chickens for almost 5 years, and nobody has ever complained about them, until now. This neighbor refused to reimburse me for my birds at first because she believed the city code would make her exempt or something. And she made a bunch of other wild accusations and tried to blame...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    I'm sure this woman must have complained. AC doesn't seem to care whether people around here have chickens close to their house, as long as nobody complains. I actually had to call AC on another dog that broke into my yard a couple years ago, they came and caught it, right in front of my chicken...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    the neighbor claims the dog is a husky... and AC believes her. *sigh* So, maybe it is. I dunno. I just wish I didn't have such a crappy neighbor.

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    AC came to my house today and told me I couldn't have chickens. Apparently, my dog-loving neighbor decided to complain about my chicken-keeping to animal control. I'm sure she's just being vindictive, as I've had chickens for nearly 5 years and it's never bothered her before. So, now my...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    You're right. Small Claims court is much cheaper, but that is only for recouping lost money. Civil Court is the only way to have the dog taken away. ****UPDATE***** My neighbor came to my door tonight and, for the first time, was apologetic! She reimbursed me for the full amount owed. Not...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    Yeah, this dog definitely has some wolf in it. It looks like a wolf/husky mix. This lady came over to my house this morning and tried to pay me half of what she owes for damages, but I refused to accept less than the full amount. Then she tried to tell me that her dog who was a wolf mix died...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    yes, we called animal control, but they don't work weekends, so the police came out and took a report. They witnessed the dog eating my hens. The dog dug underneath the fence. My chickens were kept too close to the house (law says must be at least 50 ft. away) but I'm sure the dog would have...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    thanks Karen. I've already looked into all of those CA codes. There's only two ways that Animal Control will take the dog away; 1) According to AC: if the dog attacks or exhibits any aggressive behavior within the next 12 months it will be declared "vicious", or 2) if I take the owners to civil...

    Neighbor's dog killed my chickens. City ordinance issue??

    My neighbor's wolf hybrid dog killed my entire flock last week, and they refuse to reimburse me for the damages. They claim that because my chickens were kept too close to my house (according to the local city animal code) that they are not liable because I shouldn't have had chickens in the...
