Jerk police officer beats on my door, wakes my wife

[teryang]

...who has to get up at 0430, and is rude as hell. This all due to neighbor who says my dogs won't stop barking. Guess what? It wasn't my dogs and the complaining neighbors knew it. After I indicate where the offending dogs are, the neighbor gets them from the empty residence next door to me, and brings them into her house. One of these dogs is the largest dog I've ever seen and she had to know it well to approach it like that and just take it. Then the officer says "did you file this complaint?" The first thing the officer had asked me was, "your neighbors are complaining about the noise your barking dogs are making." I'm beginning to believe that police are congenital liars. The police officers conduct was offensive, rude, and completely inexplicable.

I thought he was going to break the door down. I learn of illegal and corrupt police practices every day at work. I try to forget about it when I come home.

Yesterday the same neighbor accused me of firing guns. When I came outside after hearing what sounded like gunfire, she asked if it was me. I thought she was joking but now after this incident I realize that she really wasn't. I thought this neighbor was a friend after some scary experiences we had in common during the recent hurricanes. I was wrong, I think she's lost her mind.

1. Empty house with dogs?

Who do the dogs belong to? Or are they strays?

2. My neighbor and his household went somewhere

...for the night. The house was empty. The large dog gets a separation anxiety went left alone for extended periods and begins barking non-stop.
