My Neighbor Won’t Leash His Dog

[CarveTheFive]

To OP as much as I would ever hate to hurt an animal if the dog attacks you, you’ve got every right to bring it down with extreme prejudice. It’s the owners fault. If he can’t control his animals.

It’s not even can’t. He WON’T. All options considered I’m still going with what I called a metal rod. It’s really a steel pole. I’ve been practicing swinging it, exactly where to hold it to get the best mobility and the most force. I’m just afraid a spray or whatever that only gives me one shot wouldn’t work. I’m confident for me a blunt weapon like a pole or a bat would be the best deterrent.

I appreciate that you’re saying I have a right to defend myself but in all probably if I crack a canine’s skull under any circumstance I’ll be going to jail. I sincerely hope it’s enough of a deterrent to where the owner will think again.

If it didn’t come with a life prison sentence I’d prefer to crack his skull and give the dog to someone willing to take responsibility for his animal.
