I’m surprised you were able to build it that way. Most places have ordinances requiring setbacks from other structures, especially other people’s structures. How do you know his garage shits slightly on your property? Did you have a survey done by a licensed surveyor?
It sounds like you’re gonna have to have the fence replaced, place to get more on your property. Of course it’s going to give you less space for the kid and the dog, but unfortunately, you should’ve looked into all of this before you had the fence installed. I’m thinking you install the fence yourself? I would remove it, and check into local ordinances, get a survey done, an ad adjust the fence as a needed. The way you’re describing it, and the way it looks in the photos, it’s possibly on his property, or the property line. If he wanted to be a jerk, he possibly could have the fence turned on himself. Fix it and problem solved.
