Frank erected a chain link fence between the properties. He got another Labrador and the grandchildren came over to play outside with the new puppy. The neighbor sat on his porch with his rifle and watched them. Frank sat on his porch with his shotgun and watched the neighbor.
Frank's old black Labrador wandered across his next door neighbor's lawn and was fatally shot. The police were called and documented the neighbor's excuses that he had every right to protect his home as the land was posted, the dog was a menace and the gun permit was up to date.

A thought-provoking story, Mary. And, sadly, very close to what could be reality. Scary.

Isn't the word neighbour supposed to imply friendliness?

There's a definite feud developing here. Pity they both own guns.
