I called the cops on my neighbors because they don’t walk their dog – people think I’m ridiculous but I don’t care

LIVING in an apartment building means you inherently have a lot of neighbors.

And while we all hope to be likeable, friendly co-residents, some people just aren’t pleasant to be around.

One woman said she called the cops on her neighbors – a young couple in their 20s – after they stopped taking their dogs on walks.

And while she thinks her reasoning was justified, others are calling her the bad guy.

Posting to , she explained:

“I’ve always noticed the couple taking the dog on walks, but for the past two months, I just see them putting some pads on their patio and letting the dog s*** and pee there.

“I've made complaints to them multiple times, I've called them lazy and told them to give up the dog if they can't care for it properly.”

The woman also accused the couple of taking the easy route by allowing the dog to do whatever it wanted to right on the patio.

But the couple didn’t budge.

“Their argument is that they clean up after the patio at least twice a day, and that the dog goes on walks every night.”

The dog-owners also told the woman that it is none of her business as to whether they take their dog on walks.

The neighbor, however, was still furious.

“The next morning, I called the police/public health services on them.

“Authorities came, inspected, and said that no laws were broken, and as long as the area is getting cleaned up daily then the couple is not breaking any laws.

“I told them that the couple doesn't take the dog for walks, and the police said that the couple has their reasons for that, and I don't have to know these reasons.”

Ever since the cop incident, the woman said that all of her neighbors view her as a “b****” and treat her with hostility.

“I later found out from another neighbor that the reason they let the dog go on the patio is because the girl is pregnant and is on bed rest, and her boyfriend takes the dog out late at night when he comes from work.”

Reddit users couldn’t believe the woman’s audacity to call the authorities:

“It’s none of your business why the neighbors are doing what they are doing. Does it harm you or your living space in any way? Are they neglecting the dog? Sounds like a big no. How entitled are you that after finding out the reason why, you think you are still not the a**hole? Move on and get a hobby,” one person commented.

“You’re obviously the a**hole. And an oblivious one at that. Your first instinct is to go negative and call them lazy and accuse them of abusing their dog. I’m glad you’re not my neighbor,” another chimed in.
