[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in townhouse & my next door neighbor got a small puppy a few months ago. Everytime any of my family members step out 9f front door, their puppy runs to us barking leashed or unleashed. If there are no 3 big steps before getting on my front porch, I think that puppy may want to bite us. My neighbor has to call puppy back or tighten the leash everytime because their puppy runs to out yard & bark at us everytime.  I have 2 young kids, under 4, and I am scared of dog. I see that puppy does not often bark at other people, except us every time. [b]Why? We have been neighbors for a few years, and we are friendly to each other.[/b]

I never have animals in my life, except fish, hamster & rabbit. I am just curious what happens one day if the puppy gets bigger & knows how to get on my front porch whenever I open my front door & we feel threathened? My neighbor has asked me a few time to pat their puppy, and I am scared because I don't think he likes us. I am afraid one day out of self denfense I may kick him if I feel I or my children may get attacked. Should I tell my neighbor that I am scared of dog even though it is a cute puppy?[/quote]

The puppy doesn’t know you’ve been friendly neighbors  :lol: . If you are the only ones the puppy is barking at me sense that you were scared or nervous around it. That’s fine, that’s your right. You can request for them to keep the dog off your property. I really would suggest making friends with the dog since presumably you will be neighbors for a very long time as well. My gut feeling is that it’s barking at your kids because it wants to play and is very happy to see little humans.[/quote]
