I think that might be going a bit far... the kick should suffice.You did nothing wrong fuck that dog
You were 100% right to do what you did. You were on your property. Your had control on your dog. It's a green light moment for me. You'd tell me you killed your neighbors' dog and I'd be okay with it.
You didn’t do anything wrong. And at least your neighbor said he was sorry.Did I do anything wrong? What would you have done? My only regret is that I didn't kick that thing harder with the toe of my shoe to really dig in there. Fuck him.
2nd to worst part, neighbor yells from down the street - "Sorry about that" - and never says another word or comes and talks to me to see if things were ok.
You should had killed that dog and cooked it, so you and your dog could eat it as payback
Apparently I'm in the minority, but trying to harm the dog seems excessive. Yeah maybe if it was a pitbull that could maim you, your daughter and kill your dog, but I like dogs, so if it's a silly labradoodle, it's pretty easy to grab its collar and pull it away. Seems like you kicked it because you were mad, not because you had to, and it wasn't even the dog you should be mad at, it's the owner.
