If the owner refuses to be responsible, don't hesitate to call your local ACO.
I don't allow my dogs to roam the neighborhood. I don't have a problem if your pet gets loose every now and then (it happens, even to me), but PLEASE make an effort to keep them on your property. Several ppl in my neighborhood allow their cats to roam at will - I leave the back door open when weather/mosquitoes permit and my Australian Cattle Dog does a good job of keeping them out of the back yard.
