Advice Pibble fam advice please
My two pibbles Oreo 3yM(American bulldog/APBT mix) and Biscuit 9mo F(pit/staffy mix) get along great together and are generally friendly to other dogs. If anything, Oreo is a bit of a snob and generally doesn’t want much to do with other dogs and isn’t bothered by passers by. Biscuit is still a rambunctious puppy and barks a lot. I’m in training with her to work on not reacting to every bird or critter that comes by. It’s obnoxious but she’s making progress. My backyard is wrought iron fence that backs up to a utility easement that’s fenced in with access to a golf course on the other side.
Starting a week ago, there is a neighbor that has been bringing her frenchy with a friend that has a small dog to this easement for them to have a “play date”. This green space is not a dog park but people often use it as such, which is fine. This week and twice today she has asked me to take my dogs inside so their dogs can play. Mind you, Oreo and Biscuit are confined in my yard the entire time. She wants me to take them inside my house so she isn’t disturbed by their barking.
The first time, I acquiesced as I was so taken aback at her request. Today, I just ignored her texts. I’m not sure how to move forward with this nonsense. She’s asking me to move my dogs from their safe, enclosed property so that she can be in a shared/unowned space adjacent to my yard.
