Man demands negligent neighbor pay $3500 in damages after his dog destroys man’s rare flower garden, the neighbor refuses: ‘[You] should have a stronger fence if you didn’t want anything to happen’

What a fine, flowery morning it is today, animal fam. Spring is in the air (and so is all of pollen) and it's time for those of us with green thumbs to get outside and start our gardening. We love getting our hands dirty outside while our doggos play with a ball in the yard around us, and sometimes, they even help us when we need a hole or two dug. However, we're there to control that, and they know not to do it unless we tell them to (in the garden area, anyway).

If they were to one day dig up our whole garden that we literally spend weeks working on, we would be furious. Even more so if it was a neighbor's dog that snuck into our yard and trampled the whole thing! Well, that's exactly what happened below, except this gardener wasn't just planting vegetables, he invested over $3500 in rare flowers, a fountain, and more…and then his neighbor's dog ruined it. When he demanded the negligent neighbor pay, he refused. Scroll down to read the whole story below!

Yeah, this neighbor is totally in the wrong here. The poster has all the power and could easily win this court case if he so chose to. However, it's all a matter of if he wants to go through the trouble of doing it. Because it will be a hassle, that's for sure.

Sure, accidents happen. And he's right, it's not fair the blame the dog. But your responsibility as a dog owner covers anything and everything your dog does, even if it's an accident. That's part of being a pawrent.
