Freaking Dogs!

Why is it people get dogs and then just leave them in their yards or worse yet, think they can just open the door and forget about the leash law and let them roam!
I am so darned sick of the hassles with dogs in my neighborhood! I have 2 barkers next door that never see their owners or anywhere but the backyard, the house on the otherside of me has a ratdog that is so malcontent it always barks and yaps and the neighbors think it's OK to leave their door open at let this yapping piece wander illegally, Then we can talk about the Pitbull I had to call the cops on twice!
GEE! Where are the real responsible pet owners because I seem to be alone on this block!
