RESIDENTS of Sunnyhill in Buntingford have set up a petition against the building of Rottweiler kennels at a property in the road.
Sean Dunn is currently building 15 kennels at the house, which he says will house his two pet Rottweilers.
However, residents fear that a breeding centre may be set up.
One resident, who asked not to be named, said: "We had a residents' meeting to discuss what to do and have set up a petition.
"We are hearing a lot of different things and no one seems to know what is going on.
With so many Rottweiler attacks in the news at the moment it is not surprising people are concerned."
