Late night bullshit: The dog next door.
So there's a dog next door that's chained up in my neighbor's shitty yard.
The chain is short, about 12 feet or so. And this dog is never unchained, even though the yard is fenced in. We've had run-ins with this neighbor before. He seems a bit "off." Ultimately he's met the only legal obligations necessary in Greene County (I checked): the dog has a doghouse, and it is regularly fed and watered. But it is never, ever, EVER off that chain. Far as I can tell, he never takes it on walks, never socializes with it, and just leaves it outside all day every day with a 12 foot radius. The logical conclusion here, of course, is to mind my own business. But this dog deserves some semblence of a life, and as you may already know about me, I have an irrational soft spot for dogs. Question: What, if anything, should I do? I've come up with several ideas for helping this neglected dog: 1. Steal the dog. 2. Offer to buy the dog from the neighbor, then offer it to a no-kill shelter. 3. Offer to take the dog on a walk every day. 4. Buy a chain extension and stealthily attach it to the dog's chain, so he has 10 extra feet to be a ****ing dog. This is really frustrating for me. This dog lives a terrible existence where he has zero social interaction and next to no space for him to roam. Utter neglect of your pet is not illegal, but it's definitely immoral. But my options are drastically limited. (I do chuck it some treats over the fence when I walk by, every day.) Any other ideas are welcome, including telling me to sit on a pear. |

Offer to buy the dog. If he agrees, and you are unable to give it a life yourself, try and find a home for him.

Sit on a pear. Afterwards, look into option 3.

I'm having the same issue with my current roommate. 7 months he's had this dog (he got it at 6 weeks old) and he still hasn't gotten him his shots, got him neutered, clipped his nails, or even ****ing bathed him. Not a single time. This dog sits in it's crate 23 out of 24 hours in the day. It is so ****ing cruel...
But there is literally not a damn thing I can do about it. Not much you can do either, mate. Sorry. |

The only reason there would be "literally not a damn thing I could do about it" is if someone came in in the middle of the night and removed my balls ( which has not happened to me) |

I care about the big picture because it's what matters most. The guy is 22 years old with a ton of life left. Who knows how many dogs he could own in his lifetime. I'll continue to take him out and play with from time to time, as my other roommate does as well, but there's a reason I don't have a dog. I LOVE dogs but they require a lot of attention, especially one as young as this one. If let out of the crate, he needs to be babysat the entire time. I have my own life with my own shit to take care of.. Quote:

Balls have nothing to do with it, you ****ing imbecile. This isn't Tombstone or an episode of Game of Thrones. You can't go around assaulting people and kicking them out of a place in which their name is on the lease because you don't agree with their pet ownership. |

I had a neighbor who locked his poor dog out in the cold all night.
