Sorry I am trying to figure this posting out!!
My neighbor is so confusing! She has called for eggs, I have delivered them to her door, she came over for medical treatment after her dogs drug her down a boat ramp scraping her legs badly! I am a nurse and my husband is a doctor. She even walked over in the middle if the night to check our barn fridge for eggs! Thank goodness for our dogs! They alerted us that someone was here! Most of our interactions were pleasant even after her dogs killed our chickens we declined payment and just requested the but a fence or kennel for their dogs. About 6-8 months ago she texted at 230am complaining about our dogs barking but unfortunately I didn't get it until the next morning but immediately replied and apologized and explained that the dogs were working and fall/ spring are bad times because raccoons, skunks, coyote, etc move around a lot more it seems. I then offered to purchase a fan, noise machine, earplugs for her if she wanted to try that! She declined. Now this?!? 6-8 months later? Why didn't she just call? She is over 100 yards away with an outbuilding and a tree line in between our property. That is the closest point. I have never been awoken by them barking . If I happen to be up I can occasionally hear them.
For now they will stay in the barn because most critters are hibernating and the coyote can't get into the coop but spring and summer I want my dogs back at work. I have watched them chase coyote and a bear off our property! They are much needed!
