JUDSONIA, Ark. — Dozens of animals are winding up dead in one part of White County.

While neighbors say they know whose animals are responsible, nothing is being done about it.

“I’ve lost 30, at least 30 chickens if not more,” Brittney Reed said.

In the last two years, Reed describes an animal massacre on her family’s and neighbors land in Judsonia.

“They killed their goats, they’ve killed their cows, they’ve killed their chickens, they’ve killed their cats, their horses,” she said.

The most recent attack happening Tuesday, when Reed’s aunt Annette was at the house and let Memphis, a Boston terrier puppy, outside.

“This is where they pulled Memphis under the fence,” Reed said pointing at her property line fence that she says had been repaired several times.

“We went across the fence and got him back because we were trying to save him. But there was no saving him,” Annette Sapp said.

The family says they have watched their neighbors’ dogs terrorize and attack animals since they moved in two years ago.

Reed’s family has lived on their land for almost 50 years.

“This is my animal graveyard,” Reed said pointing out small mounds near the property fence.

“We’re running out of room to bury chickens!”

Reed says she has filed four reports with the White County Sheriff’s Office but hasn’t seen any permanent change.

“We’ve tried talking to [the neighbors]. We’ve asked them to keep their dogs over there,” Reed said.

With the neighbors’ dogs inside, we tried talking to them too, but the owner wasn’t interested.

“I feel sorry for the dogs because sometimes they act like they’re hungry, and then other times it’s like they’re just killing to kill because they won’t eat the animal,” Reed said.

The Sheriff says the family has the right to reasonably act to protect their property.

“I don’t want to kill anything, that’s why we haven’t,” Reed said.

But with more animals getting harmed regularly, Reed says she’s running out of options.

The White County Sheriff says the family can file an affidavit warrant at the prosecutor’s office and file a civil suit.

He says it’s unfortunate what’s happened but says he and his deputies are taking appropriate action in accordance with the law.

There is no leash law or vicious dog ordinance in White County.
