my 2 dogs love playing in the front garden which is completely fenced and safe, the bark a little at other dags passing but everybody knows and loves them, the more i let them out there the better they r at not going ott barking at people, anyway there is a group of kids about 12-15yrs that keep going past and barking at the dogs and winding them up
unfortunately for them today my 19yr old son was sat just inside the door so went out and shouted at them and luckily for them he has a broken arm so couldnt do anything other than shout.
The biggest worry is although my dogs are softies Anoushka is an 18month St Bernard and to be honest could walk straight through the fence if she wanted to and although i doubt would do anything other than slime on them she appears very intimidating and the law is now that if a dog intimidates someone action can be taken against them so where do i stand if she decides to go after them?
