What is the name of your state? NC
So here is the story, I live outside of city limits in a sub-division. My neighbour accross the street from me, "operates" as an animal shelter. She has 40 cats and 9 dogs, (3 kids and is pregnant with her 4th in a three bedroom home) recently one of her dogs, attacked a child. Now the child was playing in his yard, his parents where outside with him, and he just touched the dog, the child had fatty tissue hanging off of his shoulder, and a hole bitten through his ear.
The dog was taken by the owners vet and quarrentiened (sp) for a week or 2, and the bought back to her house where she has him contained in the backyard in a dog lot, however I have seen the dog unrestrained out the front as well, since the incident. ALSO, this isn't the first time this dog has attacked someone.
Our county doesn't have a leash law unless inside of city limits. I'm wonderingif there is something that can be done to have this dog destroyed. I myself have 2 dogs and 1 cat, I'm a responcible pet owner and my big dog is always restrained when outside or she is inside, and my little dog is more of a neighbourhood dog, and very playful and friendly, my cat is a de-clawed indoors cat as well.
Also another one of her dogs is always getting into everyones elses trash and spreading it through the street, despite lids being on top, and secured....
Then there is the matters of the 40 cats... whom freely roam the neighbourhood. Thes cats have scratched my brand new car and many others cars as well... Those that don't have garages attached to their homes and have to leave their cars outside are accumelating hundreds of $$ in damages to their cars.
What can we do about this problem... Please help, we're getting very frusteraited with this situation, and the compleate disregard that this woman has for other people and their property.
