To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally report an ongoing issue with a neighboring property located at 111 W Southern Dr. The resident, Ashley, owns three dogs. One of them, a dog named Ruby, consistently exhibits aggressive and disruptive behavior that has significantly impacted our quality of life. Ruby barks incessantly, often for prolonged periods, particularly when we are outside on our front porch or tending to our garden. Despite multiple opportunities to address the situation, Ashley has made it clear that she does not consider the barking a problem, stating that because it does not bother her, it should not bother anyone else. This dismissive attitude has left us with no reasonable resolution and has effectively driven me away from gardening—a once peaceful and restorative activity for me. In addition to the constant barking, Ruby regularly escapes into our yard, approaching us with hackles raised, barking and snarling aggressively. This behavior is alarming and feels threatening, especially when we are simply trying to enjoy our own property. When anyone walks by the house, even with Ashley present, Ruby behaves similarly, charging at pedestrians and displaying aggressive posturing. I am aware of at least one incident in which Ruby’s behavior caused such fear that she was sprayed with mace. Despite repeated concerns from neighbors, Ashley continues to disregard the issue. She claims the dogs are "working dogs" and that their behavior is normal for the breed. However, they are not being worked, socialized, or exercised in any meaningful way. They are rarely seen off the porch or in environments like dog parks where they might interact with other dogs or people. Given that Switchyard Park is essentially our front yard and a public, family-friendly space, this level of negligence is particularly troubling. I regret not filing this report sooner. I have been patient for years in hopes that the situation would improve, but the lack of responsibility and disregard for the safety and comfort of others has reached a point where formal action is necessary. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Sincerely, Pauline Ortiz y Pino 1605 S College Ave Bloomington, IN 47403 949-439-8203 ortizypino@alconsaudio.us

My neighbors have a large black labrador that is often off lease on the street. Is comes running at me in my backyard barking and growling. I have managed to shout and scream at it to get it to go away but it keeps scaring me and my guests. It has also caused a previous problem by chasing a delivery driver who was coming to my house. I spoke to my landlord about this and both he and I have spoken to the dog's owner. He says that he can't do anything about it because the dog escapes out the door and he then tries to get it back but I am unsatisfied with this response. I should not be terrorized in my own backyard and now feel I can't have any guests over because the dog will end up scaring them. I know that there are leash laws in Bloomington and that the dog cannot be off leash like this but I'm not sure what to do to stop it.

My neighbors at 103 E Southern Drive leave their large dog outside, off-leash all the time. That dog runs loose and into the yards of my two rental properties just across the street on E Southern Dive. The dog terrorizes my tenants who cannot safely spend time outside or even walk to their car in the driveway because of the dog, barking and plunging at them. The neighbors refuse to leash their dog before letting him outside. Both my tenants and I have already approached them and their answer is that the dog just runs out the door. They could let the dog run at Switchyard park just steps away, but they refuse to leash it and have no qualms about their dog terrorizing the neighbors. Please make them stop!

Nothing major has happened yet, but there is a very large pitbull being kept at this house that has aggressive tendencies towards other dogs. Several times, it has gotten away from or pulled down its owners. In one of these incidents, the owner managed to tackle the dog before it reached our neighbor's dog. I am a neighbor and am very concerned. All of the surrounding neighbors we talk to have independently expressed concern and have warned us about the dog. We have a dog and a new baby. I do not trust this animal, and I do not trust the owners' abilities to keep positive control of it.
