Had a similar situation to 44AMP's only mine was with an elderly dog. Multiple calls to the animal control folks who came out and said the same thing. He's being taken care of, but we have to respond to every call. At a certain point the nosy neighbor wasn't getting what she wanted so she actually stopped calling the animal control line and called 911 to report my dog had a cough. Needless to say the deputy who responded to that particular call wasn't happy with her. He came while I was away at work and left his card stuck in my door to call him. When I did he assured me that I wouldn't be hearing from them again by that particular neighbor. They apparently explained "false complaint" law to her.
