hahahaha....oh man, i think karma will kick my ass for this one, but you decide.
so, some of you remember the problem i've been having with that elderly man that lives behind my house...yeah, the one that HATES simon and messes with him whenever he sees him outside. on my part, my training with simon has gone sooo well...you'd all be so proud...even with the new neighbors pit too. he's responding straight off to commands no question and ignoring the other party. problem is... this guy is dead set on either pissing me and simon off or potentially killing him. i'm not quite sure, but i know he's accomplishing at least one of those things. i always show respect to older people. that's how i was raised. but this guy....holy crap! he has constructed... i swear...some kind of trident looking spear thing out of a branch about 8 feet long. i try not to let simon out when the old dude is out, but this guy will literally wait allllll freakin' day...even in the rain, for me to let him out. i actually think he's sorta... you know... senile or something. but so i have to let simon go outside....he's a dog, for crying out loud. this jackass, charges the fence with his homemade "weapon" if you will screaming at my dog!!!! so, what do i do? go totally batshit on him. first i commanded simon inside, which he high-tailed it fast, b/c he knew i was pissed. and me... 5'3" went off on this guy. i know it's bad, b/c he's like in his 80's, but he's been at this for so long now and no civil conversation has worked with him. so, i'm screaming at him and telling him he better never even look at my dog again....blah blah... i called him "old man" (omg...my family would be so embarrassed). i told him i was sick of his sh*t and so forth. no, it gets worse.... my b/f comes home. same day.... later that evening. old dude does this a second time... except my b/f sees it this time. and his reaction... oh about 5 billion times worse. he actually told the old man he was a miserable person who liked picking on our dog and asked if he had a grandson he could send over so my b/f could kick his ass...LMAO..ok... that's not funny, but kind of... and then he said the worst thing... cause the man kept muttering things about simon being one of "those dogs".... so then my b/f said verbatim "you're just a mean old bastard who hates his life and hates everything around him and is gonna die soon." yeah, he said it. we're always SOOOO respectful of older people and my b/f more than me even... i mean his grandparents were his world. so... i guess really... does age count when you're defending your "babies." remember... the guy did make some kind of weapon to jab simon thru the fence.... okay... let me have it. i know i probably did real bad... along with mr. motormouth. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I'd be pissed as hell if someone was continuously messing with my dog, regardless of age.
Next time, catch the man's antics on video and file a police report. If this happens while your boyfriend is not home, claim you felt threatened by his stick wielding and feared for your safety. Not to mention he is trying to hit your dog with it...Maybe a verbal warning from cops will pressure him to knock it off. |

Hell no! I was also brought up to respect my elders. My wife's granparents live with us. I am a PCA and take care of older people, and my wife is a nurse and we have both work in nursing homes. Let me tell you if someone, i don't care how old they are is doing that to my dog, I will do the same thing. Take some video with your phone and call the police before, God forbit, something happens to you or your dog.

I'd have a conversation with law enforcement. This guy is overdoing it (and I don't care if he is as old as Moses), and threatening you/your dog with an assault weapon. in most states if someone charges you property with a wepon you have every right to beat that ass maybe you should sit outside with a shotgun. |

You did better than I would... You can rarely do anything to piss me off, but messing with friends, family, and -Lord help you- my animals will get you an ass-whipping. I do not care how old you are. I was brought up to respect my elders, but he is plenty old enough to know what he's doing is wrong and I'd probably sit in a blind with a high-powered paintball gun aimed at his house waiting for him to look at my dog wrong.
Get him on tape. |

I did the same thing with the neighbors kids. They thought it was fun to throw sticks, rocks and whatever else they could get their grubby little hands on at my dogs. So I let their mom know, since the sound of me yelling at her kids brought her running, and man, I witnessed the ass beating of the decade. It was glorious.

I agree 100% with all comments, I would really get a video and call the cops, maybe tell them you will let Simon out when they get there if he is out so they can see what he does other than the video. I mean if a guy did that to my boy I would want to see him taken to an old folks home because he does not have the mental capacity to understand threats and could be dangerous to children.

Well it would be harder to do than if he was young but I know I would definitly tell the old fudger off good. Obed nailed it, he was likely mean as hell when he was a younger man.
I am fairly sure I would have to report him to the police as well, if for no other reason that to protect myself. What else is the old codger capable of??? |

well, obviously, i did leave out the extent of the yelling that me and my b/f gave him....with the choice words and such... but i'm glad i know that i was in the right. i too agree with Obed (i swear he has the perfect answer for everything
![]() btw, i took simon out today and he totally ignored the old man, the neighbor's pit and the other neighbor's basset...(he's gotten really good with this) you would all be sooo proud of how well he's gotten with commands and just ignoring distractions. he'd so much rather play with sadie or eat sticks that anything else. i just worked with him like we all talked about on another thread and he's doing beautifully. i'm so proud of my beautiful boy! |

I second law enforcement/video.File it as a nuscance/harrassment type complaint with video of this guy doing this.Document it every time he does it. This guys an ass,and I agree with Obed,he didn't ''become'' one as he got older,he allways WAS one, he just hasn't been killed or maimed for his actions yet.(surprisingly enough) I respect my elders.I take WAAAAY more junk from an older person,than I would from a younger person BUT I draw the line after a certain point.That point would have been crossed long ago.
As for simon being ''one of those dogs'',well he is ''one of those guys''.You should tell this guy ''If Simon was viscious he'd have mauled your ass by now with all of the tormenting your is doing! Apperrantly Simon is much more well mannered than you are !'' ---------- Post added at 09:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 PM ---------- you could always get some bear mace one or two sprays of that shit and im sure the old bat would think twice about coming over to yer fence again ![]() |
