I'm looking for any kind of advice... We live on a little country road and our neighbor is my husband's sister. They have a large german shepherd which they refuse to keep on their own property. It is known around the neighborhood as being a destructive dog. Last year we had a goat and her dog killed it in our backyard. This caused a huge blow up where we asked them to keep their dog off of our property. She always says that she doesn’t want to tie up her dog because she feels sorry for it, to which we respond, “that isn’t our problem”. They ended up keeping their dog under control for a month or so and then let it run everywhere again. Fast forward to now and we just built a chicken coop and bought 5 chickens. My daughter is already so attached to these chickens. Last night we looked out and saw her dog hanging around the chicken coop. We ran it off, but there’s no way we can be there all the time to make sure they’re okay. I want to approach my sister in law about it, but I also don’t want WW3 to erupt. It complicates things because she is both a neighbor and family. Suggestions please??
