[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in a row house in Petworth. Our neighbor, who we share a fence (low, chain link) with has an enormous, very scary pit bull. It barks incessantly at us when we are in our yard and follows us aggressively along the fence as we move. I have two children. I have no doubt this dog would like to do us harm. I try to speak kindly and soothingly to the dog. I feel like we're living next to a time bomb. What are our rights? Should I film him and complain to the police, animal control? We do not feel safe. And I love dogs. But this one seems right out of central casting for killer pit bull. [/quote]

You can call animal control, but the outcome is not certain.  One counter-intuitive strategy: since you like your neighbor, you should think about getting to know the dog.  Go over there when the dog is inside and have your neighbor introduce you to it, give it treats, walk it, get it to think of you as a second owner.  [/quote]

It's a freakin pitbull!! They grab by the throat when they attack and do not let go.

A pit bull killed his perfectly healthy 30-something year old female owner recently.  (Don't remember if she was in her 20s or 30s.  The neighbors tried to help but he wouldn't get off.  This breed should be completely eradicated.[/quote]

She was probably one of those people who said he wouldnt hurt a fly[/quote]
