Tusk hog, your neighbors must be kin to mine.
I had neighbors call the local humane society and tell them I had 70 or so dogs in 3x3 crates all over my yard and the dogs were in bad shape. They dispatched the animal control to my house and my wife was home. She asked the Animal Control to repeat the allegations, he did and she was like follow me, took him to the back yard showed him all three adult dogs and the litter permits for the two litters (which were down to half so I had eight pups), the licenses for the dogs, the vaccination tags and the officer was like ok sorry to bother you guys. He commented to my wife that I had the best set up for my dogs in the county, later the same neighbor said something about us terrorizing the feral cats in the nieghborhood, this time the other animal control officer shows up... I told him that my dogs bark when those cats get semi-suicidal and hang on the fence by the kennels just out of reach of the dogs but that is the limitation of the ferals. I was quick to point out she feeds them and the other next door neighbor does and perhaps feeding them was her way of taking ownership and perhaps she should be fined for having domestic animals at large. For a while I got some harassment from the anti's over pictures and breeding.
