My neighbour keeps opening my garden gate & letting my dogs out on purpose – it’s completely on my property, I’m fuming
A RESIDENT was furious after finding out a neighbour kept opening their gate and letting dogs run around freely.
The resident, from Canada, shared the story on Reddit and sought advice on how to tackle the issue with their neighbour.
Infuriated, the person explained the situation, writing: ''My neighbour keeps opening my backyard fence, and letting my dogs out on purpose.
''The fence gate is completely on our side, not their property at all.
''It’s a fence that you have to pull inward, and it has a chair and rock in front of it, just in case (plus it’s a heavy fence, and is hard for me to even move, let alone a dog).''
According to the Reddit user, only known as Straight_Spring2739, the neighbours ''really hate'' the pets, especially since the husky howls.

''This is like the 5th time in 2 weeks this has happened.''

One was conflicted and said: ''Put a lock on the gate, if permitted by local ordinance. Definitely get video.
''However you should also look into noise ordinances as well. 30 minutes of howling does kind of make you the a**hole.''
Another agreed, writing: ''In addition to the legal advice above, if the howling happens a lot they might start calling in nuisance complaints.
''Consider getting extra exercises for the dog. It's a high energy breed, hire someone to run with him or get a ball shooter for him in the yard...''
''They're in the wrong, but so are you,'' a third reckoned.
''How about you get your Huskey to stop howling? You don't think the dog howling 30 minutes every few hours is too much?
