Best cure for neighbor's barking dogs

[sniper7]

it isn't the dogs fault. maybe he is tired of hearing humans speak and wants to get back at them.

talk to the owner about it. that is how men handle things.

I totally I agree with this. I have two dogs. Big dogs. 90 pound yellow lab/golden retriever and a 135 pound blood hound. I put them in their dog run(20'x15') daily, and from time to time the squirrels torment the bloodhound. Hey howls and howls etc. I spoke to all my neighbors when I moved in and asked them if the bloodhound ever gets on their nerves to just let me know. 1 year after I moved in I get a written complaint from the animal control people. To sum it up, this was my freebie for him barking, next time is a fine, the time after that time to goto court. Needless to say I was pretty pissed that my neighbors couldn't knock on my door, leave a note - whatever. So now he goes to his dog kennel with his bark collar on.

Moral of the story - face to face non-confrontational is the way to handle in my opinion.

Man thats some bulls*** right there. I can't stand people like that, cowards. If someone came to my door and complained I would most likely apologize, thank the for being a good neighbor for coming to me instead of calling the animal control and invite them in for a beer.

/Agree

go talk to the guy, let him know what your concerns/issues are.

If after you speak with him it happens again, Go to him and offer suggestions for a resolution. (Collar, No bark electronics.)

Then if it happens again, call the City/PD and you can look him in the eye knowing you came to him and he failed.

I attempted to talk to my neighbor 3 times about her barking dog, she spit in my face. I decided if the dog ever got out, it would be toast. May not be the dog's fault, but if the owner gets mad because you tell them to shut their dog, then tough cookies.

Next step is animal control owner gets ticketed, after the warning.
