Right, Im stuck on what to do, recently I have had some new neighbours that have moved in a few doors down from me, its communal gardens so no fences. They have 3 Labradors first thought ok wont be no trouble with them as I think most labs are friendly oh how wrong can I be, my other next door neighbours dog a Jack Russell terrier was attacked by them and had to be taken to the vet. Next day I take my labrador out for a walk and these dogs were loose in the garden luckily they didnt see me or my dog till I was out of the garden but soon as I was walking along the outside of the fence they did and never seen Labs so aggressive they were trying to squeeze underneath the fence to get to my dog, heckles up even on my dog. Now they and now me know how their labs behaviour is and I know one day they will get to my dog. I always have mine on a leash so am I ok to give these dogs a boot in the ribs or head if the inevitable happens? Or shall I give the owners a verbal warning on what I will do if their dogs put mine in danger? Or something else? I dont know what my reaction would be as my dog is my loyal friend and since losing my other lab to a tragic accident I have been really protective of him and always put myself between him and danger. Please help me out I dont want to make the wrong decision or make bad relations with the neighbours. Thanks
