Neighbours nuisance dogs
Our neighbours have two dogs. Both are taken for a walk by the oldest son and both are kept on a lead. However, they are extendable leads, allowing the Jack Russell up to our gate to antagonise our dogs the other side. We have asked him not to do this because not only does it upset our dogs but the lead gets tangled in the yew hedging we have planted around our parking area. Asking does not seem to have helped.
This lunch time I have pulled in to our little gravel road to find him stood with his dogs and a neighbours dog, who has escaped the garden and I am the only thing stopping it from getting to the road. I got out the car and lead the dog back home. By the time I turned around dogs and handler had gone.
What can be done to stop him letting his dogs antagonise other dogs? Afterall they are under control on their lead.

he is doing it on purpose to wind you up.(successf ully)
as you say they are under control.your dogs are just letting you know there is an unwanted idiot at the fence which comes naturally to them.if you ignore him he will stop eventually.

I don't think that you can do anything. They are being walked on a lead, extended or not, and are walking past your house legally.
They could argue that your dogs upset their dogs be always being in the garden when they pass by on their walk.
It is just one of the (many) annoying things that dogs do

Hi, the son literally walks them up and down. We live down a little gravelly road, with 6 houses. Although we have fields all around us that they could be walked in, if he had not gotten in to trouble previously for letting the dogs off the leads in with the horses. He stands and watches his dogs come up to the gate and if we cannot be seen he will stay there for a good few minutes.
The dogs literally get a 50 metre walk there and back again.
