Same can be said for anyone with a outside dog.

    Had a neighbour who generally wasn't fit for pets. Whoever gave her a first dog to live in her tuna can of a smoker's apartment ought to be sued for cruelty. Whoever gave her a second one should be forced to live with the lot.

    One or her dogs didn't get along with the other. No clue why or what she tried, but I'm inclined to assume "nothing" and it sure didn't work. Poor thing got locked out on the balcony instead. Whole neighbourhood got to hear his persistent cries of dismay. You'd think he'd accept his fate, but no, he'd bark hours on end. The hag had the nerve to be pissed at noise complaints too. Don't recall if he was taken from her or found some other end, but I think it stopped eventually.

    yes, and? Your desire to have a big hecking floofy pupper who is just soooo happy and needs to share with everyone at 5 in the morning does not override my reasonable expectation of being able to sleep during quiet hours.

    My back yard is overgrown really bad right now and the neighbor with the dogs has been doing his passive aggressive best to get me to act. I think I may find some goats.

    Please note, it's THEIR backyard.

    It's got nothing to do with you; that means you are the asshole (not kind of).

    Half of my back yard is wild with trees and bushes and tall grass, because I like my yard to sustain some small amount of wildlife. Squirrels, chipmunks, bees, rabbits, and even an owl live there. 100% better than your shit lawn, hands down.

    Why? Unless it's growing into the neighbour's yard it shouldn't matter, and if it is growing in the neighbour can clip it back. Let the "weeds" bloom and nourish butterflies and bees. Let the thickets go and house a rabbit. Let the trees get scraggly and house more diverse birds.

    Why should the people trying to mimic English royalty by perpetuating laws established as hidden racism get to say what a yard looks like?

    There are many weeds that are not native and shouldn't be allowed to florish. Many should be cut back and exterminated. By allowing them to grow they are creating not only a fire hazard but a propagation plant for weeds to every yard around them.

    And you're assuming what they have growing.

    In my "overgrown" backyard I've only got native wildflowers (which can actually reduce risk of severe wildfire compared to all the grass that just dries up around me).
