update to the dogs/neighbour situation

July 6th, 2009 at 09:32 am

Today I came home from work and again, our verandah was covered in water. I cleaned it up and then decided to go and see the neighbours. By it happening twice, it was obvious that it wasn't an accident, it wasn't a child, and that it was intentional.

I was polite to the woman who answered the door. I introduced myself, apologised if the dogs were barking, informed her they would only be there for a few days and asked that they not hose water onto our verandah anymore.

She was nice about it and apologised. They seriously thought that the three dogs were OURS. Who in their right mind would own THREE dogs in suburbia? I'm pretty sure it's illegal anyway...

Anyway. So that was all fine. She said she thought I had guts for going over there and talking to her. (huh?)

About two hours later her husband came over and apologised as well, saying he over reacted.

On a good note, Jed hasn't done any of the barking Smile they said he just sooks when we leave in the morning for work for about five minutes and then goes and chews on his bone.

TBH, they are not the type of people I would choose to spend time with. I'm glad we got that sorted out, and meeting them too (I think they felt bad that our first meeting with them was me asking them not to hose our deck).
They are... a little strange. Harmless (I'm hoping) but strange...

    Sounds like about the best outcome you could have hoped for! They must be from Minnesota with their passive-aggressive ways and surprise at your directness. Smile
