Hi
We are your neighbors (up the street, next door, next block over, etc). We really enjoy living here and all the neighbors are great. We would like to get together with you at a mutually convenient time to discuss an issue of concern to all of us. We love dogs and animals however we have (small) children who play outside quite a bit. Your dogs have been coming around and my kids are afraid of them. I am also afraid that my kids may poke them or pull their tails or do something to scare or hurt them. Of course they being dogs will try to settle it in a dog's way which may hurt the kids.
We are also concerned as there have been some close calls with cars and your dogs have almost been hit.
We would like to find some way to resolve this issue so that everyone is happy and safe. Please either email me or call me at XXX-XXX-XXXX and we can meet for coffee or lunch to talk about this.
Thank you for being so understanding!
Sincerely
Jane Doe
123 Anywhere St
