I had neighbors across the alley who had small dogs that would sit and bark constantly when they were outside. Drove me nuts and I couldn't believe that people would be so inconsiderate. I'm not one to complain, but somebody must have. I haven't seen the dogs around for a year or so.
Another neighbor up the block lets their dog run around without a lease on to crap on everyone's lawn. I have visions of punting that thing off a bridge. Then I remind myself that it isn't the dogs fault that his owners are complete jerks.
Seriously though, there should be some sort of legislation on who can and who can't own pets in urban centers. My next door neighbor has a large dog only about 2 years old. The poor thing just sits on the deck staring into our backyard. I feel so sorry for that dog. Her life has all the charm of a maximum security prisoner.
