Every time I'm out on my deck, my neighbor's dog barks. Should I...

Little yap-yap dog is driving me crazy!!! I can't even sit on my own deck, read a book and enjoy a glass of wine. He doesn't stop barking!!!!!! What should I do?

The proper thing to do would be to knock on the neighbors door and tell them...

Try spraying it with a hose every time it starts barking... that might stop it...

Hmmmm.....I like the water ideas...devious, yet not really cruel.

And I know what the "adult" thing to do would be, but that's not nearly as much fun as the other options, now is it?

You can try one of these Super Bark Stoppers.

Set it to ultrasonic and aim it toward your neighbor's yard. Sorry I had to use it myself, love dogs, but my neighbor was uncooperative, and waking up at 6ish on Sunday mornings was getting old.

Well, I appreciate the idea, but.....I had another neighbor who put one of those shock collars on their dogs. It was so pitiful hearing the little guys start to bark "wuf----yelp!!" I felt guilty causing them to hurt themselves.

Maybe it's me...seems I constantly have neighbor's dogs barking at me.

OK people, 86 views and only 11 votes? How difficult is it to choose one option? (And not to try and influence anyone, bonus points for picking the more interesting options.)

I may have to resort to buying a dildo...wait. Explain again how this would help? (Other than the obvious benefits).

LOL... you know you've been waiting for an excuse.

when you get busted with it, all you have to say is "WAIT, its for the neighbors dog!!"

Make friends with it. It's guarding its territory. If the little yapper doesn't see you as a threat, then it will stop barking at you. Giving it food goes a long way to a dog's heart. Be sure to ask the owners what food is okay to give it. They may even provide you with the treats.

I actually have the same issue with my 80lb boxer. she barks at strangers like CRAZY. she doesnt bark at people she knows, so I invite new neighbors over to "introduce" themselves. I also suggest they come over to the fence and let her sniff every once and a while and pet her. she is incredibly freindly, so once she knows you she doesnt bark. Once you arent a stranger anymore, the barking stops.

The only neighbor she barks at now is the one that apparently is afraid of her. I have asked them repeatedly to stop by and say hi (I ask when they are out from across the fences) to her so they arent annoyed by her (translation: so 'I" am not annoyed by her) but they decline every time. but then again these are also annoying and slightly rude people. they have 3 large breed dogs, so I know they arent afraid of dogs...

So talk to your neighbor. I am sure the barking annoys him too. introduce yourself to both, and dont be a stranger to the dog and after a short while I am sure the barking will stop.




If that still doesnt work, I suggest the silenced .22

My dogs bark at anything. Any slight movment. And it doesnt matter if it is someone they know. When we walk in the house, they start barking, and dont stop until you yell "SHUT UP!". Of course it doesnt help having 4 of them. One will bark [even if it is for no reason what so ever] and send the rest of them in a frenzy. I seriously doubt the others know what they are barking at, but they do it anyway.

I do like the super soaker idea. My grandfather uses the same technique to keep cats off his show car! LoL!

They should be out there annnoying you with word "NO"... until poochie learns not to bark at you!

Or you can be nice to the dog and let it know you are not a threat.

If any dog was that much a problem it would conveniantly dissapear. Small ankle biting bitch dogs are only good for eating. People get way too attached to shit dogs. Do what every farmer does to a dud dog. Shoot it.

I've had an ongoing problem like this with a neighbor.

To start, I would let the thing bark nonstop for about 3 hours. Finally it got to be too much, so I started asking her to bring the dog back in (...again, after waiting a really long time). This got me NO WHERE FAST. My neighbor is a bitch, and she felt since it was her property it was my problem.

So, I contacted my local police department, after debating a long time about killing the dog, decided it wasn't worth it, since the animal is neglected, and I simply couldn't bring myself to do such a thing.

Come to find out, there are TOWN ORDANCES that deal with nuisance animals. You're not allowed to leave a barking dog unattended in my town. So, I just started calling the animal control officer. He finally educated her about the laws in the town. Now, being the bitch she is, she still pushed things. After the third call to the cops, she finally started to get it.

What's even better, during this time, she started making up lies about me to the cops. Since I'm friends with the detectives in town, she lost her credence very quickly. Then, she slashed my tire one night (...we think it was her). She's also was telling the neighbors how she was going to have one of her cop friends wait for me to come out the pub one night and bust me for DWI. She doesn't realize that pub is where all the cops drink.

Cops are firmly on my side now.

She still lets the dog out, but keeps it to twenty minutes. I'm a reasonable guy, so I'm happy with the staus quo right now.
