What can my family do legal about my neighbor's dogs?

Yes. You can talk to your town about it. Most towns have an animal control officer, who can deal with it. Of course the things to remember here are:

1) It's not the dogs' fault. They probably haven't been cared for or trained properly.

2) You can always threaten the guy with legal action, but of course you'll have to live next to him so...

They should call animal control and the police to report the incident. Hopefully they will do something before something bad happens. A couple of years ago a 7 yr old boy was brutally attacked by his neighbors dog and nearly died. Luckily, the boy's father happened to look outside and noticed that the dog was dragging something large in the hedges. When the father went to investigate, he found his son unconcious and near death. The child had to go hours of extensive surgery and will be scarred for life. The owner of the dog knew her dog was viscious, but said she allowed the dog outside unattended in a heavily populated subdivision because it was sunset and she didn't think anyone's children would be outside.

I'd suggest calling the police or animal control for some advice on what to do. Local laws about violent animals, and noise ordinances vary.

Call the cops for noise violation, damage of property, and assult. If you can't leave your house and are threatened by dogs... that is assult. Talk to you neigbors.... have them call the cops as well. After a couple of visits... the cops will legally make the owner take action.

Also Call the local Animal Control. If He can't take care of his animals.... they will inspect it.. and inevitably take them away from him with a hefty fine.

Call Animal Control. They should take care of it.

There should be two strategies: (a) call animal control, there are usually laws about owning aggressive animals; and (b) calling your city by-law officers about the noise levels.

not really maybe call like the animal warden or local police dept. the more they have to come out the more they will be likely to have them removed.

Phone the dog-catcher unit of your local authority (municipality) they atke their job seriously. they will warn the people and if they do not fix the problem asap they take the dogs away.

I can't believe you haven't call the Police inmediatly before spending the whole day kidnapped!

Call the police.
