OK. We own 4 pitbulls which are family dogs. I have a neighbor that just moved in around December of 2011. Him and his wife keep calling animal control with false complaints about my dogs. They are calling saying my dogs are aggressive, I'm breeding, I have illegal kennel... etc. Now all these complaints have been investigated by animal control and every one of them has been found that we are not in any kind of violation and my dogs are not aggressive and we have all 4 of them licensed and current on vaccinations. He went as far as trying to get another one of my neighbors to call and complain but that neighbor said he don't see a problem with my dogs. The man got upset and told him if he doesn't help him then he is going to do whatever it takes to have my dogs removed. I have been here for 3 years and in those 3 years I have had 3 or 4 complaints in 2 years before he moved in but those calls also were found that we are not in violation of anything. Now that he has moved in there is 6 complaints since Dec. 2011 to now. He even called using a different spelling of his last name and different numbers for his address so that it looks like there is more than one person making complaints. I have actually been issued a 3rd party citation by his wife and I have to pay $160 just to get a court date to prove my case. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME ON THIS!! CAN HE BE SUED FOR DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER??
