[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s cultural to an extent. Caucasians in America often treat dogs different than people from other cultural backgrounds. They see a higher value to the animal. Other cultures don’t value the animal in the same way, so seeing the dog be ridden on or jumped on, is not as large of an issue. What culture are the neighbors OP? Asking as a Sri Lankan with El Salvadorian neighbors and Nigerian in laws. Each of us has a different pattern of thought about the way animals are treated. [/quote] You also can not generalize within each country. Many of my Salvadorean friends treat their dogs like babies. They would never be rough with them. We have laws here in the United States, and there are Americans who mistreat their dogs and are rough with them. Same goes for every single other country on planet earth. Some people are just aholes regardless of nationality or country’s laws. Op- my advice to you is to record the boy being rough and if you feel comfortable enough speaking to his parents, let them know. If not, then call the Humane Society and see if they can come out and talk to the family. Not for the purpose of removing the dog, but if they have an official visit the family might take quicker action to supervise and train their own son on how to behave with the dog. [/quote]
