Sec. 18-53. - Running at large prohibited; minimum fine.

(a)It shall be unlawful for any person owning, controlling, harboring, possessing, or having the management or care of any dog to permit such dog to run at large.

I was seriously tempted to print out the code, highlight the relevant parts, and plaster it to his door, but I don't plan on moving any time soon and don't want a blood feud. Plus I haven't seen his dogs recently, so maybe he got the message.

Call animal control and they can give him a warning. I've talked to them when they were looking for a loose pit in my neighborhood and they seemed pretty easy to work with.
