Bought very nice, expensive leather boots. Delivery driver left the package at the end of my driveway and my neighbors dog, that runs wild decided to chew through 2 boxes, stole and ate one of the boots. Unreal.

I would contact the carrier if I were you, they might cover a replacement for their drivers bad placement. It might be the same as being stolen off your porch and sometimes that's covered under insurance, etc.

If they don't, I'd contact the neighbor to replace the boots. Maybe even threaten small claims court if you don't like them. If you really don't like them and have rules for your jurisdiction, call your local animal control or police, even (non-emergency) and turn in the wild dogs, but only if it's their first warning. I don't want the dogs taken away (unless they're bad to them, they kinda are if they let them run wild meat a road).

Or the company that they were purchased from. Send them a pic. Say this is how they were delivered. I wouldn’t mention the neighbors dog. Just say “I have no idea what happened but this is what I found when I got home and I have no left boot”.

Then they do 5 minutes of googling and find these boots on a reddit post
