Redneck neighbors keep things interesting...

Many of you already know that Lou and I have been having problems with our neighbors since the day we moved in. His family has owned the proprty that our house sits on for years. But we didn't have much of a problem until we put a house on it. From dogs not letting us into our own house to horses running loose in our yard it has been a daily thing. We've had arguements, calls to the police, calls to the dog warden and also to the humane society. Nothing ever gets taken care of. A few years ago their youngest, he was a small toddler...wandered over and sat in our yard while I weeded our garden. Noone was watching him. They have a dog hit on the road ans replace it the next day. They've had four horses killed on the road and don't really seem to care. At one point they had 18 horses out in their pasture. Which is about 6 acres. It seems like their horses only get loose and run all over our yard after we;ve had a few days of rain. So they dig up the yard and get our horses running in a slippery pasture. *sigh* We just want some peace for once.
So a few days ago these same people were hearding a bunch of their horses from the pasture down to the barnyard....using a jeep cherokee. There was a toddler running around out there that we assumed was theirs. Then all of a sudden people were running and screaming. The little boy got kicked in the neck by their mini donkey. Life flight picked him up. It was a big fiasco.
We did find out yesterday that the boy is home and doing well. He was actually the son of their neighbor who they had warned about staying out of the pasture.
How did we find this out?
Well, the "boyfriend" knocked on our door yesterday asking for help with their miniture horse.
Their pitt bull atacked it and there was blood everywhere. It was the worst thing I've ever seen. The poor filly had been chewed to the bone on her right front leg, right hind leg, part of her hanuches and they ripped off her right ear. She was in shock. We told them they needed to end her suffering quickly. But they decided to wait for the vet. She was put down and so was one of the dogs. The pitt bull had run off.
She's a nasty thing. We actually had the dog warden waiting on us when we walked back to the house. He had brought a trap to catch the pitt because we'd complained about her coming into our yard and threatening us. We also told the neighbor our plans. She told us to shoot the dog if she comes over again. So we told the warden we'd wait on the trap and see if the dog shows up again. What a fiasco! My only worry now is that as we dipose of these dogs, they will replace them yet again. Did I metnion that none of these dogs have been spated or neutered? UGH. People like this should not be allowed to own animals!
