So either our new neighbors went out and got a dog, or someone was watching theirs while they settled in because I saw them with a dog this weekend. That same dog is now barking its head off because no one is home. Lucky us.
Just ONCE I’d like to live next to quiet. Apparently the only way we’ll ever get that is by buying a house on a large plot of land away from everyone else. Because being quiet is clearly a challenge for the majority of the population. Or at least 100% of our neighbors. Ugh!
A lot of cities have noise ordinances. You could call the police and complain?
I’m hoping it won’t won’t have to come to that. I’m giving it a month for the dog to settle in and then I’ll talk to them if it’s still going on. Since it only happens when no one is home they probably have no idea it’s happening. If it was me I’d like to know before my neighbors started calling the police. Plus I had to go that route in the past (when a neighbor left their dog in their yard and let it bark nonstop for hours even though they were home) and it didn’t change anything. Not to mention that the police can’t do anything if no one is home. So frustrating!
