    Tough call. If you can catch his dogs on your property call the Sheriffs out and they will impound them as stated above. The other owner could be given a ticket for a leash law/animal at large type of violation if your jurisdiction has those. I hate difficult neighbors. I live next to a nightmare too, and I don't have 5 acres. They must have 300 people in their family and they all come over every day of the week. They always park 10 beat up held together by tape cars in front of my house blocking my driveway. It got to the point where I would park my 3 cars out in front of my house and just leave my garage empty. It seems to have given them a hint for now but it's always something. They are constantly yelling and carrying on.

    Anyways, sorry to get off topic. I'd recommend keeping the law involved. Worst case it will help you in civil court when you have multiple police reports to bring along with you.

    Just FYI, with this, why don't you have them towed? If there is a vehicle blocking your driveway, IIRC, you can have them towed at their expense.

    This is a genius idea. However, working with tows quite frequently I am aware of how long it takes them to respond and tow cars when it isn't for the Cops. These "family gatherings" often occur outside in the yard/on the porch where they can keep an eye on their trusty vehicles. They move them periodically so a tow may be tough to stick. And if I call a tow and they show and there is no vehicle to hook I get stuck with their response fee. Additionally, I'm trying to be a decent neighbor. Afterall I just moved into this house a few months back and I will probably be living here for at least 5 years. It's silent R GRAY for certain though.

    Well I'd just politely ask that they avoid parking where they are and blocking my drive... I don't have these issues up here in the mountains...
    At least you're trying to be a good neighbor, there aren't a lot of people out there anymore who go out of their way to act "neighborly."

    OP, let me get this straight, you've talked to this guy about his dogs and he blows you off? I love the idea of document everything, take pictures/video, and contact the SD. I know how Jeffco works with dogs that are misbehaving, not sure how it is down there, but if there are too many complaints they could possibly fine or even impound the animals.
