Look they do not know you and in this day and age it not safe sometimes to confront people that their dogs that they love are being a rlay noise brat.
I had he nieghbours help in telling me if they had a problme I took it right to them and said look she a dog and may bark and if it gets bad let me know and I will work on it but if you do not tell me I can not fix it. I did not get one call or note... welll one but it was not my dog it was the puppy upstairs and I could prove it cause my girl ahd been with me all day but I still said thank you for teling me...
What I am saying is yes your hurt but turn it around and have it work for you.. tell the nieghbours you been made aware there is a problem and are working on it.
Ask them to watch and see if they see any cause from outside to the reason the dog is barking a noise or a person bugging the dog. A dog walking by setting your dog off. Mailman, metor readers can be a big cause.
Take this as a chance to help your dog< If it is barking that much is stressing and stress kills. You now have a chance to fix it drop the stress level and make the dog more comfortable.
