“Around dinner time, I’d like to be able to sit on my deck and maybe read a book and chat with a friend or have a glass of wine, and the dogs are barking,”

“...how many times is it acceptable for you to be bothered in your house every day?”

If not for the dogs, I'd hear mostly crickets and cicadas.

They leave their dogs outside 24/7. One dude has 4-5 of those dog crates, and I don't see the dogs running around so I assume they are in crates most of the time. Other neighbor's dog barks from roughly 8pm-11pm non-stop every night. Literal neglect in both cases. I feel bad for the dogs.

Like hourse of this, but with slightly deeper barks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdZvMcCaSYA

lol, I can hear the muted pain and anger in his voice. Dude has it worse than me. At least none of the dogs are in the properties next to mine, and I put privacy fencing up.

I also have to close all my windows and put on a fan for white noise, or else the barking drives me crazy.


Yeah, I be telling. Went and got the city's 311 app just so I can tell through that too.
