This was clearly just a ****ed up hobby for that kid. Really made my blood boil so I started yelling at him to stop unless he wanted me kick his ass and call the humane society and get his dog taken away in that order. He kept going. I ran around the fence and entered his backyard through the gate. Went up to him and broke his stick and told him to go get his parents. It was all I could do to act somewhat civilized because I wanted to beat that little punk with that stick.

His (grand?)mother came out and I told her the situation. She seemed to have no problem with it and told me to get out lest she report me for trespassing. I left after telling her to control that **** of a kid she lives with. The boys father usually works on his cars in his driveway on Saturdays so me (and my father now that I've told him of the situation) are going to talk to him about it. If he shows the same attitude as that woman did towards that kids actions we're calling the Humane Society on them because I will not stand for that ****.

I wish I had known this was going on earlier because we're moving on Sunday and I would rather report them based off of another incident instead of how his father reacts but that seems to be the only way to go about it.

Good to know that not all of my neighbours are *******s.
