[Dailydrool] Venting & Neighbors

[Elizabeth A. Kolenich]

Is it wrong that I have no shame in walking into someone's yard and taking
their dog?!?  If I lived next to some of your neighbors. they'd be dogless!
I, too, have a neighbor that has a boxer that lives outside in their fenced
in yard.  They come and talk to her but leave her out all day/night.  Since
they have a 6 foot privacy fence I cannot see if she has some short of
shelter but I can see her jumping on their back door begging to come in.  If
I could get over that fence.. she'd be gone.  Her constant barking irritates
me but not because she's barking, but because it's a constant reminder to me
that they are not taking care of her.

I live in a sub-division and our houses are on top of each other (or so it
seems to me) and I have more dogs than I should (and I dare someone to say
something to me about it) but of all my neighbors that do have a dog or
dogs. mine are the quietest and most well behaved because they are taken
care of and have it good.  Sure they bark when they hear us pull in the
drive, but they are so happy we are home, or when they are playing outside
but that's to be expected and I wouldn't have it any other way.

People drive me crazy and wonder why I like my animals more then them.
