wendy, don't listen to the folks who are being hard on you about your dogs. A good neighbor going across your property would be sympathetic and take your needs into account. Read the conditions of the easement, as they should be a part of your deed. Meanwhile, see if you can set up an undergound dog fence to keep your dogs out of harm's way. And BTW, you are hi-jacking someone else's thread and need to start your own if you want to continue.

No she does not. Kinda hard to hi-jack a dormant thread .The way CD is set up encourages this and it's probably how she found her way her in the first place.
However, a new thread might get more attention, although we a did reply to her, didn't we?
Anyway...you definitely are responsible for keeping your dogs out of the roadway but additionally, earlier on in this thread is a mention of speed bumps.
If 'speeding' really means speeding perhaps you could consider that.

It may be legally difficult to add speedbumps to someone elses easement. They could claim it impedes their access to their property which violates the easement agreement.
I purchased my country home with my two dogs in mind. They have always been protected within an invisible fence and know their boundaries well. My driveway is centered in the middle of my property so my two shepherds have run and played on both sides for nearly six years.
Although I agreed, when I purchased my home, to allow use of my driveway if anyone ever bought the little piece of land in back of me, I never really expected it to sell. It's just a small piece, literally in the middle of nowhere. But here they are, suddenly scooping up this property, sticking a mobile home out there and turning our lives upside down.
Yes, I can and probably will have to find a way to move the base of the invisible fence to a location that cuts their play area literally in half, perhaps even building a protected shelter for the unit since it's not waterproof and needs electricity.
It's difficult and a bit disheartening to suddenly take away the land my shepherds have run and played on for so many years and continue making mortgage payments on this property we no longer can use.
I have only asked for a little consideration when turning onto my property. This wouldn't be too much to ask the average person.
Thanks for your replies. I didn't realize I was on some else thread. I'll start another.
