cyclone24 1,912 Posted May 7, 2024 At what point do you say something? We have neighbors with two dogs. They don’t train them no bark collars and this morning they were out before 6 AM barking when we have kids sleeping for school. To me that comically excessive. Do you say anything or no?

I live in the middle of 45 acres. If my neighbor doesn't like my dog barking at 6:00 am they can move. I porposfully insulated myself to avoid these situations.

Does your dog do their barking from the middle of the 45 acres or does it go to the property line/fence line and bark directly at your neighbor? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We keep them controlled on about 2 acres in the middle. However 1 is a coon hound and has an incredibly deep and loud bark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I understand coon hounds their bark is literally designed to be such that one can locate that dog, in the dark of night, as it has gone far afield chasing and eventually treeing raccoons. It is designed to carry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alias Detective 1,389 Posted May 7, 2024 My closest neighbor only has 2 acres. There is 4.2 for sale bordering him. He is buying it so he doesn't have to worry about his "new neighbor's dog" He is controlling the situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t know I think it’s just tacky. I mean, we have kids that are outside all evening making noise but they go to bed at like eight. We have a dog but In a million years I wouldn’t let him bark and keep doing it. But he’s an English bulldog so they don’t really bark that much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I lived on base I had a guy next door who's dogs would bark constantly. One morning I threw about 10 bars of Exlax over the fence. It was so bad that he had people shampooing his carpets for 2 days That learned him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I texted my neighbor a few months ago, as their two small dogs barking was excessive when I can hear it multiple times a day every day from inside my house with all doors and windows closed.. I got a response. Not sure if it helped, maybe a little. Need to talk to the neighbor on the other side who has two Marmaduke sized dogs, not that size matters with barking. I'm just going to say it, I hate dogs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
