are not born aggressive but may not have had early puppy
socialization so they may bark
through not having been introduced to new experiences such as meeting
people, other dogs etc...
- It is always best to
try and stay on good terms with your neighbor so don't go in guns
blazing.

Neighbor Dogs Barking
- Purchase
a pad of
paper and start a journal - record the time and date of the barking and
grade the noise from 1-10.
- Take a deep breath and
go over to your neighbors...
- If
you don't know your
neighbor and its your first meeting, don't start your relationship off
with a complaint - leave it for a couple of weeks but keep fairly
regular contact.
- If
you know your
neighbors take over a cake or a beer depending on their taste and start
with a chat about normal things...build up to mentioning the noise. When stopping neighbor dogs barking its best if you can remain friends.
- Now
with a smile,
tactfully mention the noise, you could even mention how you had a
similar problem with your dogs, use a bit of psychology...be clever!
- Tell
your neighbors
the times he is barking, but if you at work be honest and say that
there are times in the day when the noise won't actually effect you.
- Now
if you have got to
this point, ask your neighbor why they think their dog is barking,
there maybe a simple reason...it maybe that that have moved to that
House recently and the dog feels unsettled... without realizing it you
are now working together to find a solution.
- Now
mention going out
for meal or a beer and discuss the issues, mention that you know a
great e-book, book or website that maybe able to help.
Stopping
Neighbor Dogs Barking
If
your neighbors are difficult and don't play ball!
Sometimes
when you want to stop neighbors dog barking and they are being really
difficult try following the step by step guide below...
- Start by purchasing a
dog dazer or ultrasonic dog stopper - these can work up to 50 feet
away...just place the dazer towards the barking and it lets off a
really high pitched audio noise that only dogs can hear when they bark
- and they hate it!
- If you have other
neighbors who are friends ask them if they are being effected by your
neighbors dog barking and try and form an alliance - they may also
agree to a dog dazer which they may place in their back-yard and now
you have an ally.
- If you live in a
apartment block, condo or complex - mention the problem to the landlord
and log all correspondence, keep any letters as it leaves a paper trail.
If you have go to the this
point and your neighbors dog is
still barking, and they are being really difficult and even a bit of a
jerk, you may need to take the following steps...
Stop
Neighbors Dog Barking
What
to do if your neighbor is being a real jerk...
- Write a letter
politely asking your neighbor to control their dog's barking and wait
for a reply.
- Give it ten days and
then write another letter, but state at the bottom that they have ten
days to respond - state the facts clearly and accurately
- Send copies of these
letters to your landlord, environmental agency or Home Owners
Association (HOA.)
- If you live in a
property that is under a lease, covenant or community code
take a good look at the Community Codes and Restrictions and review
whether there are any provisions for a neighbors dog barking and what
your rights are.
- Get copies of your
local and state covenance law and post them to your neighbor - state
that if they don't stop their dog's barking you will get the
authorities involved - give them ten days to respond.
- Now this is the last
point of call - go to the Police or RSPCA and give them copies all of
your letters, correspondence and your log.
- If the Police, Animal
Control or RSPCA don't feel it is a priority, speak to your MP, local
councilor or commissioner - you can always go higher - everyone has a
boss - get
names!
- Don't ever use
threats, you can sue in a small claims court and can get anything from $2,000
to $5,000
- Never use force, get a
solicitor, lawyer and speak to your local Citizens Advice Bureau - a
letter from a solicitor carries allot of weight!
- If this all fails, you
may have to consider moving, but you will need to disclose your
neighbors dog barking.
Congratulations,
if you follow this guide you will be stopping neighbor dogs barking
every-time!
