[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would ignore her.  [b]About the dog I would respond, "Nope, I don't know anything about it."[/b]  Don't let her stress you out. [/quote]

OP here: Well I already replied to her telling her how it was my boyfriends dog but that she was 1) not tied up outside/at all and 2) certainly wasn't barking all day outside. She left it with telling me that she was going to contact the homeowners association on Monday and would be in touch. I really hope she doesn't think I am going to pay a "fine" for something that just isn't true at all. I've lived here for 3 years now and she's such a pain to deal with so I'm sure it's going to turn into a huge issue but I'm hoping not. [/quote]
What the hell?  This is why i always deny and play dumb unless the person has pictures/evidence.

This lady sounds crazy.[/quote]

OP Here: Clearly someone lied because his dog has literally NEVER been tied up outside, ever. Also, the second she barks, he goes outside to make her stop and she has never barked for more then 1-2 minutes tops. I'm extremely pissed about this issue too as she mentioned getting a "fine" and I'm assuming she's going to expect me to pay for it. Wouldn't there have been some sort of a warning, etc. if this really was the case and there was a "barking issue"? I wasn't aware that they can just "fine" you for something without warning you, etc. Either way, what they are claiming isn't true at all so I'll definitely be fighting that. [/quote]

I mean, I worked for a law firm as a paralegal for a while. I'm no legal expert but I wouldn't be paying that.  First of all, there would need to be some kind of previous statute against tying up dogs?  Which seems extremely unlikely that that would be passable, since dogs pretty much need to be on leashes in public.

I would probably say something like, "I'm not prepared to pay any kind of a fine but if you would like I could forward you the information of the dog owner.  Perhaps the homeowner's association can bring the fine to him."

Chances are she's bluffing you, and once you move the focus to someone else outside her purview, she will lose the tiny amount of power she's trying to grasp at. [/quote]
