We are trying to expand our business, which means increasing our heard. In order to do so I have been cross fencing some interior sections of our property. One section has a border fence only. Which the people's dog tends to climb the fence into our property and cause issues. If its not trespassing it barks relentlessly. Barking is not an issue it can bark 24\7. Issue is we dont want it on our property. Until now i could work around it because we were not using the area adjacent to it.
Now i need the area for livestock, and the dog is not nice and has attempted to bite me in the past. It has been made clear to the dogs owners this is not acceptable and can not continue.
I am weighing my options, at this point I have double layered the fencing in a effort to keep it from climbing and added two strands of barbed wire. At this point i am almost ready to open the area up for grazing, problem is the dog still gets over the fence. For some reason it only seems to climb over to our side and never back. I am not concerned about the kids but my concern is the dog. One of our bucks is very territorial, and if he doesn't take him out the livestock Guardian Dog will, and he wont stop attacking once the dog is no longer a threat.
Then owners do not seem to care so do I just go ahead and let the cards fall where they may? We have requested they curtail their dog added extra fencing in an effort to stop it I dont see what else there is for us to do?
