  • While mowing this overgrown lawn for a guy who just moved in, the neighbors dog kept jumping the fence while on a rope and kept me from mowing the backyard.

    Just because a dog is wagging its tail doesn't mean it won't bite. You were right and justified not to risk it. Too bad the owner couldn't get the neighbor to control the dog. That's ridiculous that it's on a long enough lead to jump into the next yard. I had a friend's dog, that had seen me at their house multiple times, randomly jump up and try to bite me in the face. Anyway, wishing you safe mowing this year!

      You know when seeing that viscous Pitt bull on the news going off behind that gate after it has bitten someone or killed something barking and foaming at the mouth? It’s actually not because purebred Pitt bulls do not and will not bark, barking is a warning threat and it’s triggered by the fear response. They also rarely bite people because they were originally bred as a family protector and later turned into fighting dogs. I had two back in the early 90’s before they become popular and their temperament is the opposite to what people believe. Those dogs barking at that gate are American staffys, they look almost identical to a Pitt bull but their temperament is nothing like them. There’s no such thing as a bad dog, only a bad owner 😉

      @SoulsJourney I wish so many more people realized that a wagging tail doesn’t mean a dog won’t bite. There is a lot more body language to read than just the tail. Tail alone it could be a stiff tail wagging which is very different from a goofy relaxed wagging.

    If this had been me, I would have been on the phone to the police or animal control! The owner won’t change this situation until he has been contacted by a higher authority. It’s a crock when you can’t work or relax in your own yard because of a inconsiderate neighbor. I’m glad you are okay and I hope the homeowner doesn’t have continuing problems with the dogs’ owner. Thank you for helping this person!

    My first instinct, especially when the loose dogs showed up, would be to call Animal Control and then finish up the front yard. You do such good work; it's a shame you didn't get to finish this one. Never, ever trust a dog you don't know when the owner isn't around.

    I was walking my dog, a Boston Terrier, had him on a leash. We got attacked by 2 mean dogs. Mine as small as he is (21pounds) hit the first dog and knocked him down, I tazed it, it screamed like a little girl. Got up and ran away. The 2nd was fighting my dog and he ran off. My dog was biting him in the throat. We both were okay. Both the dogs were about 35 pounds. I went to the police station, told an officer what happened. Filed a complaint, and the officer went and gave the owners a ticket for not having a leash.

    I've been around dogs my whole life. 2 years ago I was at a clients house with their dog. He had been so loving and friendly. We were discussing the details of the kitchen remodel and all of a sudden the dog bit me. He didn't break the skin, but he held on and had to be pulled off of my leg. I had severe bruising, and it hurt. You just never know what might set an animal off. I have a Husky/Malamute and he is gentle as a lamb. Yet, if I have people over to do work or for consultations, I lock him away just in case. I think you are wise to protect yourself. It doesn't mean you don't like dogs, it means you respect what they can do. I love your channel and your kindness. I hope 2024 is a healthy, happy and prosperous year for you and your family. God bless you.

    Great Job Brian, Thanks for sharing ! I could sense your fear with the dogs, I used to do a window cleaning service and had my share of aggressive dogs ! But at the same time I learned a lot, The Black & white one was no threat to you, as for the one jumping the fence , He wanted a taste of your leg ! I remember on one occasion a dog aggressively came at me , grabbing the bottom of My Jeans, shaking me several times ! With the deepest voice I could muster I Pointed in the direction of where it came from and shouted GET IN YOUR BED ! tail between its legs bolted ! Never back up from a non aggressive Dog , it will view you as prey ! Do not give it eye contact, Unless it comes at You, ignore it, It will know your not a threat, keeping in mind You are in their Territory

    You never know with any dog. If the dog doesn't know you, and you add to that the noise of an edge cutter, or a moving mower, trouble will follow.
    Stay safe. I'm sure the property owner is grateful you did all that work for him. It's a huge difference!

    Hey Brian,
    I'll stick my nose into the scrum of what everyone is talking about, I used to work as a trash man, I pulled a roll cart all during the day, most people would be at work and they would either have their dog(s) in the house, on a chain, or in a fenced-in yard, so the dog(s) could run.
    I normally do not have problems with dogs, even the "aggressive" dogs behind tall fencing.
    Most dogs are relatively good at keeping their "hoomans" safe and most dogs know who is supposed to be on the property, dogs, in general, know their role and are pretty easy to be around, they can Sense fear and anger a whole lot better than hoomans can which is why they can sometimes seem like they're going to attack, I had one dog in particular, a golden retriever, who loved attacking the fence when I, or the other guys, would have to walk beside pulling the roll carts, certain noises can agitate a dog's senses and get the dog aggressive even though the dog thinks it's protecting it's property,
    The dog I had the issue with was not chained in it's yard, and the fence was just three feet tall and the dog would always charge the fence and act like it was going to come over, then there was the day I was on the route and I was going beside the fence, and the dog jumped and tore the shirt I was wearing and scraped my upper arm with it's teeth, I called the office and they had a police officer catch the home owner and the owner gave documentation that their dog was vaccinated, as I said, I love dogs, the home owner was told to keep the dog in the house on trash days or to have the dog on a chain on trash days or to have a tall fence at least six feet in height erected, the home owner elected to keep the dog in the house afterwards.
    The main reason dogs "attack" is, they think they are protecting their hoomans, and in your case, the next door neighbor should have had either a shorter chain or a lot taller fence because there's no reason for their dog(s) to be on the neighbors property, whereas in my case I had to go along side the fence or backtrack almost a hundred feet to get around the shed and brambles bush where the trash cans were at

    I have been doing yard work and landscaping for 50 years and I can tell you that almost every single time I have been bitten by a dog was right after I was told it was frendly. If I had been in your shoes on this job I would have just gotten right back in my truck as soon as I saw that the neighbor's dog was so aggressive that it would jump the fence. If that dog was so out of control that it would do that, there was a very good chance it could break the rope or chain it was on and attack you. I say this because the last time I got bit by a customer's dog was at a house where as I was walking up to the front door five dogs were lunging at the picture window barking and growling. I agreed to do the yard only if the people living there promised to keep the dogs inside. Sure enough while I was working and didn't see one of the people living there go out of the house the dogs got out one of them bit me on the back of my lower leg.

    Brian man I gotta tell ya you just made my day!!!! I’m on the treadmill watching this video and when that black and white dog showed while you were weed eating along the side of the garage in the backyard and you finally saw him and stepped behind the garage I just about fell off the treadmill from laughing so hard!!!! As if that wasn’t funny enough the slow-mo of the next door neighbors dog hopping the fence I just lost it tears were streaming down my face!!! Dude I am so sorry to be laughing but I found it to be hilarious. Then you wrote well I guess I’m not mowing the backyard and again I double over in laughter!!! I had to hold on to the handrails on the treadmill so I wouldn’t fly off. I understand that you don’t want to get mauled. And again I’m sorry I’m laughing but damn that was a good video!!!
    Were you ever attacked by a dog??

    I live in the country so addressing dog issues are different. We have the right to defend ourselves. We had a neighbor who had dogs and they were very mean. The UPS and USPS people would not even get out of the vehicle to deliver packages and these dogs tried several times to bite us on our own yard. They eventually moved to town and then the police had to deal with the complaints. The fines to the owners exceeded $3000 and the owners had to put the dogs down just do they didn't have to pay any more fines. They tried biting the neighbors in town and they learned that we put up with a lot from those dogs. Good thing for you not to mess with those dogs, they get the idea of a pack and you pay the price especially if they have a dog that is a ring leader. If it has to be chained, there is a reason. Since you are not the property owner, you did the right thing to just leave.

    I feel sorry for that new homeowner, having to learn about crappy neighbors. Not sure whose fence it is jumping, but it is their responsibility to fence their entire yard high enough (and secure beneath) to contain all their animals. The good news is, you were not attacked and did not sue them for damages, involving the new mortgage holder's insurance, who would sue the neighbor. HOW FORTUNATE that by enlisting your kind service, you documented all the evidence on film for the owner to share and share and share. You are like a secret agent man! God Bless!

  • @johnasher594

    Evidently some people have never been mauled by a dog. Dogs aren’t necessarily friendly. In fact, many unfamiliar dogs are aggressive and can maim and kill. Keep your animals under control at all times.

    Some dog's ears hurt around weed trimmers. My dog was ok with the lawn mower but went after the trimmer and my vacuum sweeper every time. So it's got to be the high pitch noise from the motors. My neighbor's dog came at me with tail wagging and growling as I got in my car. I didn't do anything but walk from the house to the car. The dog came from nowhere and he said I provoked the dog. So yes you made the right choice.

    You are absolutely correct; nobody ever thinks you are going to be the victim of a dog attack. And there must be a reason the dog is on a chain, to begin with. You are there to do a job and not provide doggy daycare.

    Brian that was another great job. I remember that job when you did it the first time, and the dogs harassing you. I had the same reaction this time as the last, pure anger for the pet parents who are so very thoughtless and uncaring as to the welfare of their dog. I don't know about others, but for me, my pets are my OTHER CHILDREN WITH FUR COATS. The danger that they leave that dog in b being to jump that fence that is atrocious. It only takes a nano second for it to get caught up and choke that poor dog to death. With them apparently not being at home during the day makes it even worse. They apparently have no regard for that little souls life and that is so very sad. It is truly a shame that you have to go through that kind of thing and am very glad to see you play it safe. People who say, oh he won't bite, he's friendly, have no clue as to what is in a dog's mind, they can snap in the blink of an eye.Just like you said, your the one who has something to lose. You're a very smart man and the trolls are non compos mentis.

    Sue Wolfe- Happy New Year Brian! What's the saying, " Good fences make for good neighbors" ? I hope this homeowner put up some new fences to protect his property. Im sure the neighbor must realize that his dog jumps the fence into someone else's property, in the first place. Secondly, the dog could get injured in doing so! They can always watch your video for proof. I don't blame you for not finishing the backyard. I wouldn't, either! Have a great weekend, Brian! 👏👍💪😉♥️

    That dog doesn't look friendly. We had a Chow that bit a boy once. His injuries were severe, and part of his scalp had to be reattached. I thought the dog was nice and mellow, but he wasn't. We got sued by the boy's parents. I have a Shih Tzu now and she's never off her leash outside the house. I'm a little paranoid after that incident. I don't like for people to try to pet her either. At least the front got done and looks great. You'd think the neighbor would try to control his dog. The new homeowner is not going to want that dog in his back yard.
