Problem is a combination of issues. First relates to sewage waste from their lagoon coming across our property that was not in compliance with law. They were negatively impacted by that where they are having to make adjustments to their sewage treatment. Secondly is an issue with dogs. Mine have violated their space and theirs have violated mine. Both parties have chickens. They also have discarded carcasses across fence that brought in scavengers my dogs had to deal with and nasty prizes my dogs bring back. We are restricting dogs more now from going in their direction. In past when Lucy was a pup and guarding our place from humans, neighbors would deploy a small dog that would chase Lucy back onto our porch. They found the interaction entertaining and repeated it to my dismay. Now as an adult, Lucy runs their small dogs off when the owner walks by and the owner and party accusing Ben does not like that. Recent incident caused neighbor making allegation to be very distressed. Neighbor also behaves consistently in a manner not consistent with good dog husbandry which complicates human / dog interactions. Those small dogs until recently would periodically come into our yard and still do some distance from core of poultry area. Actual owners of small dogs also planted fruit trees on our ground and harvested out meadow as hay without asking. That was done twice. Second cutting required taking a fence down I installed and otherwise contesting of property boundaries. Land was recently surveyed and markers are easy to see. Bullying was attempted with surveyor efforts discredited by neighbor.
My neighborhood is a bit on the rough side.
