It’s a dog-gone shame.
The city Department of Health fielded more than 1,400 complaints about unleashed canines in the last two years, statistics show.
Neighbors unloaded their rage via the 311 hot line and its Web site to complain about “vicious” chihuahuas, aggressive owners and pooper-scooper scofflaws.
Brooklyn led the pack with 482 calls, 44 of which were from East New York and Cypress Hills. Other saturated areas included Mill Basin, Flatlands and Sheepshead Bay.
At least 60 of 360 gripes in Queens came from Jamaica, St. Albans and Springfield Gardens, while Staten Island neighbors filed 236 complaints, many coming from Mid-Island.
Meanwhile The Bronx saw 195 complaints and Manhattan had 183 — with dozens coming from a select number of buildings on the Upper West Side.
Many New Yorkers couldn’t settle their bones of contention without calling the city, and some tattle-tails were so desperate, they used pepper spray on pups and left bags of dog waste at misbehaving owners’ doors.
In one Upper East Side incident a doorman let a pooch take over the marble lobby — and told residents not to enter because the dog “had a history of attacking people.”
“Doormen are aware that the dog should not be there, but seems to have an agreement with a tenant,” a complainant griped.
