Firstly it might be worth talking to the dogs owners, there may be a problem or w/e that you won't know about till you talk to them. They may be understanding about it and you can work with them to sort it out.
If not you can make a complaint to the council about noise, they will come, check and take it from there

Usually you call the police department and put in a complaint. Sometimes if you know where the dog is barking you can tell the owners and complain to them that the dog is keeping you up, some people understand this and others do not. If this dog is that bad then I would think that other neighbors have the same problem. You might ask them about this before going into the police and maybe more of you can complain about this problem which would only help. Get a petition from the others though.

Yes, you can call the police, it is disturbing the peace. Do you know who's dog it is for sure? If so make sure you have their address to give on the phone. We were once reported as having a barking dog, and we asked the officers (they called, small town) to drive by as our dog was snoring in the backyard. They did and heard our dog snore, and the other dog that was actually barking in the neighborhood. Good luck and hope you get a better nights sleep.

Most communities have noise ordinances that will cause the owner of the dog to be fined or ticketed...in my town this is enforced by the police dept....constant barking, too loud music after 11pm, whatever- call the police....

Try talking to your neighbors first. If they don't correct the problem then the next time it happens and every time after that call the police for disturbance of the peace.

depends on the laws where you live
where I live there is no law all I was told I can go to the court house and file a report against the owner for nuisance and take them to court myself ( I have to pay and no guarantee to what the outcome would be)
