  I did not say he should not investigate. He should, and report also.

  We have had serious issues in our our neighborhood and the police have encouraged us to call with tags of any vehicles we do not recognize. We are trying to keep our neighborhood safe and it is working. We are finding working with the police has cut down on the crime in our neighborhood. We are determined that the elderly in our town will be safe and not have to live in fear. So if the 80 yr old lady sees someone parked at a house and she has never seen the car- yes the police are encouraging her to call in and they will run the tags for her. They are not calling her a nut job , they are calling her a concerned citizen.

  Our plan is working, We are not lazy or nut jobs. We are watching out for everyone who lives here. We have block parties and are all getting to know each other. it is a great plan . this is grass roots government at the community level. A city councilmen was at our last block party. he is proud of us and glad to see our hard work has paid off.

  Neighborhood watch groups are encouraged by the police. They are very successful.They help neighborer's get to know each other better and deter crime. we have a place to report conditions in the neighborhood , like dog attacking children or other animals. this way all the neighborhood knows what is happening.

  An easy way of getting rid of pesky neighborhood dogs without actually poisoning them is to chuck them cooked bones.

  Compare it's symptoms to peritonitis.

  All "concerned citizens" that call the cops when they want them to run plates don't think they're nutjobs.I am happy that your neighborhood is so safe. I would rather eat a bullet that live near such fear motivated busy bodies that have nothing better to do with their time than call the cops to make sure the people I have over are "the right sort". You know what? If I want to have my just got out of prison neighbor, my stripper friend and my weed smoking buddy over, live with it. Thank god we have the 4th Amendment to stop people like you from running the world.

  And no, you didn't say he should investigate, you studiously avoided it while encouraging all other sorts of underhanded and devious behavior.

  I encouraged him to call the police and let the neighbors know what had been happening. that is not underhanded.

  It's interesting how you refute things I don't say and defend things I didn't point out.

  WOW! Talk about a lot to read through.

  Our dog was up again last night, not as poorly as the night before but still poorly. When she started hacking it was soo painful she started to whimper. Which is not like her at all. She is tough. When she whimpers she is in pain. Going to make her soup to see if she will keep that down.

  I will not be going to the police until I have actual evidence, that's why we are getting a camera put up. Even the vet said you can't prove it was the neighbour without having footage of her doing it. She is very popular with the neighbours, on her side there are no pets. She drove out the previous tenants by constantly harrassing the agents and coming round with problems. With us she kept coming round with ''fake'' electrical problems, it was crackling she was hearing and it was keeping her awake all night. Our landlord had to pay for electricians to come out a few times. Nothing was found cause she is a nutjob!

  Our bedroom backs onto her bedroom and she would hear us go to bed and bang on the wall waking us up. She once held a hoover to the wall! We have to tiptoe round the bedroom on a night because she starts banging then phoning the agents to say we are loud and rowdy and it's distressing her... Grrrrrrr.

  That hasn't worked so she has to take it to the next level... The dog is not a plant eater, we have no poisonous plants in the garden and I NEVER use any chemicals.... No weed killer or fertiliser. I pull all weeds out by hand. Very painful. Lol.

  I'm careful what she eats and where she goes. We had a look to see if she has been digging but there is nothing anywhere.

  Without hard evidence there is absolutely nothing I can do. Even the police have said we need some footage or a confession. Well she's not going to confess is she! If the police go round to see her if will only fuel her attacks. The only way out is to move....

  Babysprout isn't stupid and wouldn't pick anything up that looked suspicious... Carrot did a sweep of the garden before he left for work and it was all clear... I will not the dog out alone EVER!.

  We don't have a neighbourhood watch and even if we did we wouldn't be welcome. The street do like her, especially the oldies... It's living next door to a rented property that's her problem. She's a snob and I have my suspicious if she can kept driving tenants out she thinks the landlord will get fed up and sell it. Hmmmm I doubt that will happen....

  Peace

  Thank you for all your comments.

  Black sheep I asked about that but she was all clear... I just want her well now, I hate her being ill. We have had her for ten years and she was 6 when we had her. She was kept in a cage down the bottom of someones garden and was emotionally damaged. We rehibilitated her and she is a lovely dog. The only times she has been ill is these two poison attacks. Apart from that she is healthy. She has gone an hour without hacking so fingers crossed she will start to feel better today.

  Peace

  Thats really worrying! Lol. I take it he never found out??

  She is better, not hacked for a while so i'm hoping she's feeling better. We changed her bed 4 times yesterday as she was being sick over it and didn't have the strength to go outside.

  Peace
