(We've since moved, but here is an interesting story from where we used to live.)
She has been a continuous source of grief to us since we moved in.
There may be dog poop on our shingles by now. I am also curious if there is anything we can do. I'm not sure if she is renting or owns the unit.
Last Sunday morning at 4:30AM, we had a surprise visit from one of our neighbors:
It appears the dog escaped by breaking a hole in the screen of an open window. Conveniently, the owners weren't home until 8 AM that morning, so we had to call the police since we didn't want the dog to be hurt.
The police chased the dog into our window and ran around our home trying to get a leash on it. The dog jumped on our couch, ran through our kitchen and dining room, traumatized our cats, even left a little poo on a rug before they managed to catch it.
Today, the dog was left on their deck, unattended and tied up, barking all day in discomfort from the heat. Another neighbor (not us), called dispatch and Animal Services came.
If this were the only problems we've had with this neighbor, I would refrain from complaining. She was pouring something on her driveway that smelled like gasoline the other day, she regularly leaves cigarettes in our garden. Conspicuously near the most recent cigarette was dog poop buried in our garden.
She locks her kid out of his home regularly, and he climbs across two decks to get to his so he can use the back door. Our Air Conditioner has been bent and a slat of the wood has been pulled out.
The police are there regularly, maybe once every other month. This isn't even counting the time the police showed up at our door 4AM asking if someone nearby had stiffed a cab driver by the name of a friend of hers.
Then there is the smell of cigarettes, people leaning against our car and hanging out in our front yard, leaving their junk (bikes, broken wood from a fence somewhere) in our driveway and grass, constant barking, unattended dog in the front yard with a cable tying it to the lawn, other noise disturbances in the middle of the night, etc.
