Hello, y'all!
I've been back from vacation for about a week now, but I haven't had time to check in on my favorite forum. Did you even notice I was gone? We went to Mexico.
I got an anonymous nastygram in the mail yesterday. Jake has been out off-leash a few times lately. Our fault for being lazy. He's generally really good and stays in the yard.
The writer claims that he has been barking and snapping at people and that he has actually caused an injury. She said in her unsigned letter "We are going to do something about this. The proper authorities have been contacted."
I called animal control and the police department, and they haven't received any reports.
I really don't know what to do. Somebody in the neighborhood is a real dog hater. They are constantly calling the police or animal control the second any dog gets off leash even for an instance. Last time this happened, RB Pepper got loose while my son was taking her out. I was getting dressed to go find her when I got a call saying she had been hit by a car. It was odd that she was hit so quickly, because we don't have fast traffic in our neighborhood. I think this person really is out to get our animals and I suspect she purposefully hit Pepper.
We're being extra careful with Jake and Max now. We've always been careful but you know how dogs are - especially Max! He's broken screen doors by jumping through them in the past.
Anyway - sorry for rambling. I'm just upset.
