*sigh* ... got a situation that I need some advice on..
Renters with two dogs. An American Pitbull (missing part of its tail), and a Bull Arab. Both males and the Bull Arab only appeared in recent months.
Owners spend bugger all time with them, and thus the dogs bark, dig, and play fight (which turns into real fighting). The guy seems to be okay and can talk with the dogs and treat them fine, but his female partner seems mentally ill (either that or shes on drugs - a real possibility as she definitely looks the type).
Shes bogan with a real loud foul mouth on her too. Today one minute talking nice to the dog, next minute she is yelling in a threatening tone at it.
Then tonight she forcibly shoves one of the dogs over, before kicking it. Dog cowers off then. Not the first time I've heard her thump one (or both) of the dogs either.
...
The dogs seem like sweet dogs (albeit probably need a firm owner who spends at least some time a day with them, takes them for walks, and definitely need some professional dog training).
The guy seems okay with them and the dogs listen to him, just not the partner.
On one hand I don't think it's fair for the dogs to be in such an environment, but then there is the flipside... retaliation.
They don't seem to be the type that would listen, and since we have a dog, I'm not willing to take my chances that if they were put in to authorities they wouldn't try and bait it. If my assumptions are correct and she is mentally unhinged, who knows what she is capable of.
As it was she had a massive verbal with him the other day out the back and half the neighbourhood could hear it. Then came the screams, the yelling, and the tears.
Bit stuck on what to do on this one... Sure other neighbours could put them in I guess as well.
I know the agent they rent through.
