Thanks for asking. It’s been one challenge after another. We hate it here. And now there are 2 dogs. And the owner had the nerve to ask my husband not to walk our dogs in our neighborhood! She can’t control the dogs and has gotten dragged across the street. (They live behind us on a small private road but she crosses into our subdivision to walk her dogs). It’s gotten to the point where my husband has to carry a weapon. So yes we are hopefull that this will be a 2 yr max stay.I was going to ask about your move...the unfenced yard situation with your neighbor's big dog?

That is SOME outrageous nerve! Don't walk your dogs - what? Damn, I was hoping to hear a sensible solution had been found but these people sound impossible!Thanks for asking.

Seriously?!? I would be sharing some words of wisdom with them. Like get a trainer and start training the dogs, then they won’t drag your sorry a$$ into the roadway.And the owner had the nerve to ask my husband not to walk our dogs in our neighborhood!

Some people just totally baffle me with their stupidity. I am sorry you are having to deal with this!
What kind of dogs are they?
Anyone that chooses that breed of dog should know how very important it is to train them or have a breed specific trainer for them. It’s a huge responsibility to keep one of these let alone two. Asking your neighbor to not walk their Dobermans in the neighborhood because you can’t control your own dogs is reflective of an inept and irresponsible dog owner.They are Dogo Argentinos.
Yes we are miserable. They play with them off leash in their front yard, running up and down their private street which boarders our back yard. My husband won’t let our kids in the back yard anymore.

I can’t quit thinking about this. Two years of them being in the neighborhood is going to make two years seem like a lifetime! I feel so bad for you!
Not to mention if she gives them a high stim, it could make them even more aggressive.They are under the illusion that an ecollar will give them complete control of the dogs.
Ok, so we passed our first 24 hour mark! They are still in the right place and looking good. Hooray!
And, she’s leaving them alone 99.9% of the time!
I’m thrilled. Thank y’all so much,
I actually do use the Unisolve and bandage scissors but either way will work. I'm just lazy.You will not need to cut. Soak the tape with the uni-solve for a few minutes.
You will not need to cut. Soak the tape with the uni-solve for a few minutes. If it's not working then put some more on. Then start at the tape end and start pulling off the tape. Make sure you soak it real good on the hair side of the ear.
This is also why most tape jobs only use tape in 3 spots. Bottom, middle and top.
We don't tape the whole ear.
Thank you for the tips!! I could just see unisolve all over the place!! Oh and I did put Gold Bond Medicated powder on the fur side of her ear and some down in the ear. Thanks for that application tip! I would have never thought of that!! I had it all over my table and when she shook there was a cloud of white powder! Thanks again!!I would put UniSolve in a shot glass about a 1/3 full then put several q-tips in. Let the q-tips get saturated and then I would start applying the saturated q-tip to the tape starting from the edge and working my way through the piece of tape. Rubbing back and forth until the tape came loose. I only used the surgical scissors to cut off the pieces of tape that was unwrapped/soaked off.
Also next time you post put baby power on the fur side of the ear prior to taping to prevent the tape from sticking to the fur. To get precision with the baby powder I put the powder in an applicator bottle (like the kind for sand art or hair color) and apply to fur and rub into ear.
