Howling Dog Days

Member Posts: 5,053
Some domestically violent losers moved into a rental house just upriver from me some months back. They brought with 'em a big, aggressive American Pit that's howled since the day they moved in. Workin' out of my home, it drives me nuts from the time they leave for work/school until they get home. It also charges my poor cattle dog, crossing an empty property, when she's just squattin' to take a wizz out in the orchard on our land. It's charged other neighbors and their dogs as well while walkin' on the county road.
I've complained to the renters and the landowner, to little avail. Any corrections have proved only temporary at best. The landowner's now disconnected her phone and refuses my mail. Even called the county Animal Control officer - what a waste of time. She told me to offer the aggressive mutt treats and make friends with it! (Only in the Land O' Fruits & Nuts! [:(!]) I did wind up learnin' from the call that the losers had lived in town with two such dogs, the worst which had to be euthanized. Probably why they moved out into the sticks here.
So, I'm aimin' to get some pepper spray for when it returns here... to start out playin' nice.
Any other thoughts - particularly on the howlin'?

Two dogs show up at his place and are agressive to him. What does he do comes over and tells me to get my Dogs. So I tell him to shoot them I don't have any dogs just cats.
Now he goes out and gets a little yapper dog. Last Sunday I was working outside whole time this dog just will not shut up. Drives me nuts. Well from me to him is about 200 yards.
Finally I've had enough. Out comes my old Marine Voice "Shut that F%^&&^ing Dog up." Have not heard it since.
I do have a neighbor a little farther away. His dog barks once in a blue Moon. So that one only Barks when somethings up. I can live with that. But that dogs bark would scare a pack of wolves. Raises the hair on the back of my neck every time.
I spoke to the neighbor, and she basically said; "T>S> You live in the country and my dog can bark anytime or all the time. I had been being nice. I told her: " Well, if you won't train your dog, I will."
Sooo, when the dog would start to bark, I'd step out on the deck, yell "Quiet" and light off a .40 into my flower garden. The dog wouldn't bark for a day or so.
After about four or five of these cycles, all it takes now is for me to yell "Quiet" and the dog quits for a couple of days.
Neighbor * about the gunfire and I told her: " You live in the county. It's legal to discharge a firearm whenever I want to"
Pissed off neighbor, quiet dawg.
Works for me.

The best kind.
You could quinch its thirst with a bowl of antifreeze. Its a sweet flavor for your last meal.[}:)]
I'd like to quinch your thirst with a bowl of antifreeze. If a animal needs to be put down do it in a human way. Nothing wrong with a round to the head. ( sorry man i tried to shoe it away but it charged me ) works well for a cover story.

Exactly. I don't even torture spiders or bees.
I have a neighbor about 300 yards away with an undisciplined, large dog that barks just to hear itself.

Damn good idea there. I'll file that away in the ole card catalog.

think that would work for neighbors?
I'd be damned careful spraying it with mace, It might go crazy and kill somebody.

'shine -
I'm pretty sure it would. It's important that people like that believe you are nuts and unpredictable.
Which, of course, in my case is true.

However my Beagle hound sometimes barks at invisible owls... just to make me get up and holler at him. [B)]
(I'm learning,all I gotta do is rustle a tater chip bag and he shows up)

Constant yappers OWNERS need a swift boot.

A couple of left wing extreemist I see.
Do me a favor and don't eat meat! I'd hate to think a cow, pig, chicken lost its life to feed your *. Also make sure animals that are attacking your children, have the same rights as you b!tches in court. Further more, make sure you do not ever euthanize an animal for its own good. Just make it suffer.
I was attacked by a dog when I was around 3 or 4. I've got no problems with making sure it does not happen to my kids.
I think this thread was about creativity. Not about who could complain.
People like you two, starve my freedoms, and create new laws everyday.
Are you a law maker or something?

I made a statement like once as a joke and a lot of guys ate my butt for it [;)]
honestly the dog is a reflection on the owner not the dogs fault, even though I understand, but antifreeze is a very painful death undeserved, tap to the back of the head if it has to be done. Just my .02

I like the postal ammonia idea to start. My concern over the use of the potent Fox 18% Capsacin spray I have comin' is that it may backlash onto my dog or me with a little breeze. Not somethin' I'd like to start the mornin' with. [;)]
I also like the idea of feedin' the dog some raunchy food to punish the owners... Maybe some beans with a little corn and cabbage mixed in. What else produces some bad, smelly runs in dogs?
But if ideas like these don't work, I'm gonna have to flip a coin to choose the caliber of my final solution. Feel sorry for the dog, but what're ya gonna do.
Hes not there anymore! Was shooting ak and he growled at me. That german training ammo is wicked.
