Mr Fox I do think that many dogmen miss out on getting the support they need by trying to stay clear of their neighbors. I have 3 houses near me but not next to me. The smallest lot is 2 acres. closest one is the retired county sheriff who brings over bones from the butcher for the dogs all the time but I also help him with his yard work when I see him trying to do stuff that his wife yells at him about. Other neighbor has thoroughbred race horses. His wife is a animal lover (kinda nutty) She has a rescue dog that I'm helping her train around the horses. The other neighbors have chickens and had a few come up missing. I set up my trail camera and found out it was a fox getting them and took care of that for them. So they all seem to like us and our mutts.
