Hi, BelgianMAL,
I'm not a lawyer, but I question what if any impact such a message would have on MBSA.
You say you will hold them "liable for any harm" to your family. First, how do you define harm, and second, what is your plan of action against MBSA? If you accuse them of causing your family emotional distress, they can argue that your dogs are causing the neighbours emotional distress. And liability? The law is on their side, unless you can prove that your dogs are not actually disturbing the peace in your neighbourhood.
My advice, as other Petfinder members have also suggested, is to demand that the complaining neighbours provide proof of their complaints. If you can prove that the complaints have no basis, MBSA will have to dismiss them.
