Question

What do u think i should do to the dog that is barking next door

Answer 1

i would suggest training the dog needs help to contol its behavior talk to the owner offer to pay for the training if it cant be afforded some times beining nice will get you farther than not try being neighborley or go to the aspca and see what they can help with just dont take the easy way out DONT HURT THE DOG its not his fault he was not trained to be out all the time

Answer 2

Dealing with neighbors is a nightmare. First, try asking them nicely. Make a video tape and show them how annoying this is. Offer to split the cost of having the dogs surgically debarked. Personally, I'd move before I'd live next to a neighbor like that, but sometimes that's not an option. I have a neighbor who goes to work early and slams his car door shut outside my window every morning. I've padded the glass with those closed-cell foam mats they make for gym flooring and keep a noisy fan or wind machine on while I sleep. That helps a lot.

Sounds like you've taken the high road so far in a very frustrating situation. Some fools recommend killing the dogs, which is ridiculous. It's really not the dogs' fault and killing a pet dog is a felony in most states, especially if it's on your neighbor's property. Bad neighbors are big on retaliation. If you kill his dog, who's to say he won't burn down your house? And his next dog might be worse. If you're intent on committing a crime, kill your neighbor instead. (Just kidding!)

Most areas have noise or nuisance laws - sometimes calling the cops can help, sometimes it can make it worse. Animal control will only seize the dogs if they are abused (ie, no shelter, no water, no food, etc). If you don't mind risking a war, get witness statements from your other annoyed neighbors. If the cops won't help, I'd try calling your local TV station and see if they want to do a human interest story on lousy neighbors. Show them as much documentation as you can, pictures and a log of how many times you have called the cops and gotten no help.

Hmmm... Make an audio tape of the dog barking, call your neighbor (from a pay phone!) and play the tape really loud at three in the morning?

Answer 3

To all those who suggested shooting and anti freeze you are ignorant, and certainly not an adult. As well as inhumane.
Maybe they ought to shoot you or poison you that would solve the problem for ya.

Now on to the question asked.
I myself would start out by talking to the owner in a kind and nice way.
Ask them if it is possible to put the dog in the house or somewhere other than outside .
Usually a dog barks for a reason, such as a person or other animal in its territory, or it is bored and does not receive enough attention from its owner.

If this fails call animal control, and file a complaint against the owners.

Buy some ear plugs, or ear phones.

DONT PUNISH OR HURT THE DOG BECAUSE OF THE OWNERS STUPIDITY.

Answer 4

Unfortunately it's the dog that is going to be punished instead of the owner. If you have already spoken to the owner and they have done nothing, try spraying the dog with a hose. In obedience school, many people spray their dogs with a water bottle to keep them quiet. You will have to spray from a longer distance and may get only one chance at it. WHILE IT IS BARKING, spray it. It works best if you startle the dog and the dog (or the owner) does not see you. You may only have to do it a couple of times to get it to work. When it is quiet, throw it a bone. The dog will learn that being quiet is more rewarding than barking.

Answer 5

First of all, have a conversation with your neighbor. I tend to inadvertantly ignore barking b/c I'm so used to it from my dogs but to others who aren't around it, it can be a serious annoyance. Maybe your neighbor isn't even aware of how much it's bothering you. If the neighbor refuses to do something about it then you can call animal control in your city. Most places have laws about excessive barking and they can deal with your neighbor on a more serious level.

Answer 6

Start with talking to the owner. Tell him that the barking is bugging you. If you get no where with that, file a complaint with the authorities. You can sue if the barking is messing with your day to day living too. Good luck.

Answer 7

Better you buy a good barking dog.. Then you dont feel barking is disturbance.

Answer 8

Its not the dogs fault...........its the owners. Go over and tell them that it is barking all the time. Maybe they are not aware of it

Answer 9

Frame the dog so that your neighbors have to get one of those masks that cover the face so that the dog can't open it's mouth.
