Annoying Local Behavior

We have a lot of dog walkers in our area, walking large dogs.  Belgians, German Shepards, Rots, Huskies, Labs.  They don't dare come in our yard!  Bruce will take on all comers!  The exception is the female Belgian across the street.  She is Bruce's crush and he dreams of catching her near a bench or something he can stand on.  Belgidoodles?  Poogians?

Same with our Spitz, he looks adorable but I don't think I've ever owned a more brave and courageous dog.  He's only 12kg but man, he doesn't take crap from anyone.  It's him, not the rotty, that the local pests should be worried about.

Spitz might be a dog for us someday.  I hope my daughter will grow out of her allergies / asthma.

To stay on topic:  I hate the annoying behavior of our rich Filipino neighbors who let their Belgian run around, and sometimes their Beagle escapes.  They both like to leave deposits on our lawn, and yesterday the Beagle left a vomit deposit on our back terrace!

5 Filipinos come to my house asking for help with a cousin who needs money to go on a PNP course. So I told the wife and she came out with a large coke bottle filled with coins and said this is all we have 3k in coins.

So he accepted it and later he came back and said there is 3 hundred lacking. Wife gave the 3 hundred and he promised to repay once he started working with the police.

That was 2 years ago, told the wife stop giving money away but when 5 blokes come asking for help what do you do? Moving is not an option.

I find this behavior extremely annoying. They just received a gift and then they have the nerve to come back and tell you that some were missing! I would be really pissed 😡

It's unfortunate but the concept of being grateful for as gift isn't that common here - the guys probably thought of it as a payment made out of obligation thus the shame of asking for more wouldn't enter into their heads.

Don't mess with this dog!

She's an absolute terror to moths that land on the sliding door screen. 

Also not to be denied her grooming even if I'm on the computer.

If our dog saw your cat, he would go ballistic. he hates cats!!!!

 

The other issue is that he either hates goats or wants to hump them... haven't quite figured that out yet...

Our 3 Belgians collectively has solved the feral cat problem in our area.

But I also don't want three Belgian dogs... One is more than I can handle... and he is a handfull! He has literally pulled me off my fee more than once ( or three times). He is so powerful and strong that I literally have to stage my feet to prepare for his next lunge! He is a friendly dog, but other dogs or goats or cats make him go ballistic. I always have to to prepare for his lunges....
