@goats-n-oats said the looked to have shot at the neighbour shot at the dog and giving dirty looks. It may be something or it may not be. It’s not being a stalker actually, it is being protective. Yes the dog should not be out of the yard but you should still keep a close eye on your dog around the neighbours if you have a suspicion. Maybe next time it happens to over and apologise, bake a cake for them who knows maybe they’re really nice people. You may get along really wellThis is YOU projecting.. and judging your neighbor for how they look. WOW!
Sounds like your neighbor is living their life and YOU might be the stalker.
Please understand that I don't really feel that way about you.. I'm only trying or attempting to point out that your perspective and personal fears or conspiracy theories might be influencing your thoughts and experience. Maybe try giving your neighbor the benefit of the doubt.. they don't have to be scared to know that sometimes big dogs attack little dogs even.. and every single one of us will do what it takes when the time comes to protect what we love dearly.. You personally described him as "mean" to your neutered companion dog despite not having shown human aggression..
So can a car driving by.. you're neighbor's intent is NOT to kill your dog.. But his actions can point to just how key it is to ensure your dogs are EFFECTIVELY contained.. I know some are escape artists that will find away.. and can be frustrating.. The neighbor cannot be blamed for YOUR dogs actions and being at large..
I do hope the situation improves between you and your neighbor.. it's much better to live in peace and harmony knowing your neighbors have your back (best they can) rather than under suspicion.
Choose LOVE not fear.. BE the change.
