<human>: Hi there,

So my husband and I live in a house we moved into a little over a year ago. We have spent a lot of time making renovations and have adopted two dogs of our own-- it really feels like a home. We have been spending a lot of time on our back patio the past few months and have taken notice to out backside neighbor's new puppy. However, before I discuss more about this dog, let me provide a little background info.

In the fall of 2010, my neighbor had a new puppy that was about 15 pounds. Some nights when it was especially cold outside, we noticed their pup being left outside. In fact, they usually left it outside 100% of the time. That dog disappeared. I don't mean to make any speculation. A number of things could have happened to the puppy, but I do remember the dog being left outside without much care. 

They recently came up with a new puppy, this time a toy-sized dog. It is also left outside quite a bit and is only played with when the kids chase it around the yard. We were recently shocked to see the same kids spit at our own dogs through the chain-link fence the other day. Clearly they have not been taught how to properly interact with animals.

Anyway, their new puppy always whines when we are outside now and has learned to climb over the fence. Some days, we have come home from work to find our two dogs playing with their puppy in our yard. We always keep our dogs inside when we are home, but recently our neighbor's puppy has been climbing over the fence and whining out our back door. My husband and I are animal lovers, and we are feeling conflicted about how to go about resolving this.

My husband suggested we post here just to see what kind of responses people come up with. Anything goes, from putting the dog back time and again to finding a new home for the dog ourselves. We would just like to get some feedback. Thanks!

Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?
<bot>: Neighbors leave puppy outside and only interact with it when the kids terrorize it. Puppy plays with our dogs and now climbs over the fence. We disagree with their treatment and wonder what you would do.
