Not-neutered Neighbor Dogs

I'm only on here occasionally, this is kind of more of a rant than anything but I wanted to know if other people have experienced this same issue and what your reaction was...

 We have a sweet, extraordinarily well-behaved 4 month old lab/shepherd mix that we love very dearly.  She isn't spayed yet, we have an appointment in a couple of days to ask the vet when we should schedule it.  I know it's generally between 4 and 6 months.  Anyway, a couple of days ago, I was walking her in the grassy common area on a leash when my neighbor's un-neutered and un-leashed boxer ran at her, jumped on her, and tried to mount her.  I quickly pulled her away and picked her up before anything happened.  Needless to say, I absolutely lost it and yelled at him about neutering his dog - especially when the owner just said "no hump" and stood there instead of pulling his dog off.  Our apt complex has leash rules but clearly they're not enforced.  Should I report him?  I don't want to create enemies but we're leaving in a month or two to move into a house anyway.  

My puppy was fine, more confused than anything, but I was MAD.  What would y'all have done in this situation?

humping can be a sign of dominance also and since your female is 4 months old that is my guess as to what the other dog was doing. It still doesn't make the situation ok in my opinion. I personally would make sure the owner new that I found that behavior inappropriate and next time I would be forced to report him for having his dog off leash.

Other dogs hump my male dog b.c. he is so submissive.  If people don't acknowledge it, I body block and if I feel uncomfortable I yell, "Get your dog off of my dog!"

It's not really your place to tell them to neuter their dog, although I understand the temptation.  I would just tell him politely and calmly that my dog does not like being humped and if he can't control his dog I will report them to management.

 

I'm past the point of giving a *** whether my neighbors like me when it comes to animal ownership.

there is nothing about to worry related to that. many dogs may have same problem. but dogs are one of the most better pets in the world. i also fave 4 months old dog. he used to do these things.

It's a spammer.

Because apparently all the mods defected after the board "upgrade" debacle and there's no one to report spammers to the Nest gods to be banned.
