MY Side: I was walking to enter my garage, suddenly heard & saw the dogs running for us, yes, on my property & and reacted by picking up my medium size dog so they couldn't get to her. She's a docile dog. I remained quiet to calm me & my pup.

No apology, its all my fault because I wasn't ok with it all, second time this has happened. But I'm the issue in her eyes. ������. She doesn't know me or my issues, how dare she dictate how I should be behave in an situation that shouldn't be happening in the first place.

Sadly this appears to be a TV issue happening too much, these owners are behaving irresponsible. What if that happened to an aggressive dog? The larger dog would be blamed for injuries..
Sad that you have to put up with this from a neighbor. If she owns 3 dogs, you can report her to community standards since there is a 2 dog rule. It is possible, but I'm not sure, that the third dog is "grandfathered" in if she has owned them prior to moving here. If they are off the leash, I believe that is a county ordinance and can be reported to the sheriff. And then there is civil action...... However, any of that might escalate a bad situation further
