So, us and our neighbors have been going
round and round with ours and their
dogs!!!
They have a mother and baby chow/pitt mix and we have our pitt and our american bulldog.
Well, the neighbors dogs *continually* get off of their leash from the back yard and run around the hood. They also bark at the wind. I don't know if it's the wind, or their shadows...
anyways, normally, the barking isn't a problem. But .Oni is teething and any little noise will wake her up when she's on the brink of sleep.
So, for the past week, I haven't been able to put her to sleep in her crib because them stupid ass dogs won't shut the hell up!
I went outside and yelled at them to "shut them dogs up!" nothing happened, and they continued to bark. So I went in the back yard and told the dogs to "shut the hell up!"
nothin happened....So I said medical answer em...Imma call somebody. I can't be the *only* person bothered by this.
So I called animal control. They told me to call the .Sheriff's office. Now, i'm not one to call the cops on people. I like to keep my peace with *everyone*, especially neighbors. But i've have *enough*
!!
So I filed(anonymously) a report of neuscance dogs. The neighbors *are* home, because I just watched them step outside for a cigarette. But when the cop rang their doorbell, nobody answered. Now, there's a car in the drive way, so it's totally obvious that they're home. And their dogs were barking up a storm!!
So, the cop just left.
i haven't heard them bark since the cop left. But if they didn't asnwer the door, how the hell do they know what the cop wanted? I mean, besides me yelling at them to shut them dogs the hell up!!
Grrr!! I hate these people!! This isn't the 1st incident we've had with them! They're *scum*!!!

perhaps yelling at the neighbors and their dogs wasn't the best way to go with this. Do they know you have a teething baby and it's hard for her to rest when the dogs bark? They might be a little more sympathetic if they knew your circumstances.
You are headed down a course in which their dogs will be victims. Try to diplomatically work things out before you call anyone. I have really, really scummy neighbors too, and have found out that a little talking can go a long way. Good luck!

I have that problem at the moment...Our
neighbours dog gets let out at around 7 pm
every single night and starts barking for
as long as it's out there...Which is
usually for over an hour. It's so hard to
concentrate on anything while it's out
there.
I just have to shut all my windows and get over it cos I don't believe that calling the cops will do much.
I don't blame the dog, I mean it's freezing outside and it's owners should let it out only for a pee or whatever it wants to do and then let it back in but instead they incredibly leave it out there for ages

I dunno, .Sarah. Maybe they've learned to
tune it out. Like when you go to the
grocery store and there are kids running
everywhere acting like damn fools -
throwing boxes of cereal off the shelves,
ripping open packages of toilet paper,
screaming and running down aisles, etc...
And the parents are just like
checking their shopping list or whatever.
And you're like "are you blind?? Don't
you see what your children are doing??"

K is right, they're disturbing the peace and we're not the only neighbors complaining. We've talked. And it did nothing. So I had to take that extra step. It's like, if it bothers me, it's *got* to bother them!! I mean hell, they're home alllllllllllll day long and the dogs bark alllllllllllll day long!!! Sarah |
my point was that I would hate to see the dogs suffer because you stood in the backyard, yelled at them, didn't get a response, so you called animal control.
You said you 'talked with them'. I am glad to hear it, because I got the impression you just stood in the backyard and yelled. I mean, did you really thinking yelling at the dogs to shut up would work?
i am one of those people that try to speak for animals since they don't have a voice. It's unfortunate for all when you have idiots for neighbors-babies and dogs alike! And it's dangerous for the dogs to run off leash in the neighborhood like that. Do your neighbors know that happens as well?
I ask all these questions because people make assumptions alot. My old neighbors assumed I wasn't bothered by their loud late night stereos, and I in turn assumed they were suckers for not knowing it was bothering me. A little chat cleared it up.
Good luck!

I dont feel like I have to speak to my
neighbors. They should be smart enough to
know that if I wanted a dang dog I would
get one but since I dont have one means I
dont want their dogs barking or in my
yard. I could careless if my neighbor
dogs suffer.

what kind of person doesn't care if an animal suffers?
I know this is the pregnancy forum...I can only hope you're not procreating.
