    Are you irritating or annoying them in any way?

    Obviously they are. I mean, how dare they walk through their own garden when entering/leaving their property. ;)

    Exactly, they should use the back entrance.

    I really don't know if you are being serious.

    Extremely.

    They are clearly being a nuisance to the dogs.

    Some good advice.
    The dogs are contained in their own garden. You could consider buying some shapes- dog biscuits for your daughter to throw to the dogs. With asking if allowed first!
    One of our neighbours does this with our dog',he also gets the bone from their Sunday joint. Now our dog has only to hear the neighbours voice and he rushes to say hello.

    The grandchildren are a different matter. They will get a chair to climb on and lean over the fence! Of course the dog barks and jumps up at the fence. If I hear them,I bring the dog indoors.
    The secret to success is making very small, yet constant changes.:)

    Good idea, but stear clear of meat pies.

    I hope that's not a cooked bone they are giving the dog, as the splinter easily and kill many dogs every year. Raw bones are best.
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.
