I live in the country. 3 houses spread out over 47 acres. We share a common driveway that is 1/2 mile long. The renters across the drive have a lab mix and a rotty mix. They let them run loose. We have two bullies, and the female is reactive, but not truly DA. We ended up putting a fence up around our "backyard" that is cleared. We have asked the neighbors several times to keep their dogs up, and finally I just told them, mine are leashed, and yours aren't, if a fight is to break out, they are liable for all damages. The fence makes our life just easier, but alas, I have grown lazier and throw ball and such instead of long walks with my "kids".

Now the one that is the problem is the neighbor down by the main road. He has two rotties. The female is a sweety, but the male isn't and he is HUGE. He also is rather aggressive and they are "contained" with an invisible fence. I carry a gun often, because I can't defend myself nor my dogs if/when he breaks through. We have woken a few times to have him wondering our property, and a shot in his general direction has sent him home.

Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.
