Well, this morning I was on the phone to the police. Its kind of a long story, but highly irritating and I am a bit scared and angry all at once.
For the past year we have had problems with a guy walking his dog. Just walking it is not a problem, its a free country. The issue is, he keeps taking the dog right up into my yard and the neighbors yard to do its business. I guess he thinks since we have dogs we wont notice!!
Several times now we have confronted him (I have twice, my fiance once, my daughter once and the neighbors a few times.)
He just slinks off with his dog and we think its taken care of but he continues to do what he wants. On OUR property. Last time I checked, that was trespassing.
A couple months ago I called the police (the neighbors had done that previously) and thought AGAIN that this was the end of it.
Nope.
Now that we have a lot of snow, he cant bring the dog through the yard, so bold as brass, he has been bringing it directly up the sidewalk to the DOOR and letting it "go" where my little dogs do. He doesnt even budge if you catch him, like he has every right.
Maybe confronting him, made it worse?
I talked to my son and he said "Is he mental or completely arrogant? Anyone else would get the picture and know it was WRONG".
I think he just doesnt want to pick up after his dog.
Anyway. I am just waiting and going to take a picture of him since no one at the city office or police department seems to know who he is. Thats weird too because this is such a small town.
The neighbors think he is the prowler we have had around too so thats doubly worrying because it makes me wonder if it will escalate into something worse.
I posted about the prowler before and at that time was confident I could handle things myself. I dont feel that way anymore.
Sorry about the rant, just needed to get it out.
