Imagine that your neighbor has an elderly dog. As it's gotten older,
it's sight and hearing have become impaired. With the decrease in it's
senses, it's irritability has increased. Where it once upon a time
barked at strangers, it now barks at anyone who comes nearby and has
been known to bite.

The dog has to go outside at times, and because of it's behavior, the
owner keeps it tied up when it does.

Do you:

Tease the dog because it's fun to hear it bark, regardless of how
much it disturbs
your other neighbors?

Throw things at the dog to make it chase them, finding it
especially amusing when
they land just out of reach and the dog strains at it's chain
trying to get it?

Find a dog which has been trained to fight and put it in the
neighbor's yard? After
all, it bit someone and deserves whatever it gets.

Try to make friends?

Leave the dog alone because you believe you can't teach an old
dog new tricks
and the situation will eventually resolve itself without your
doing anything.

If you've taunted the dog, and it bites someone (you or someone else)
do you share in the culpability?

I would feed the dog treats like prime rib fat, hamburger helper, and
talk sweet to it. It'll learn my scent and appreciate the love and
kindness. Dogs are good animals and need their final years to be
safe, warm and full of love. Dogs are just doing what we got them to
do, bark, wag their tails, and be sweet.
