 Neighbors dog always barking, poison ivy cure that's dog safe but actually effective?
Hey guys, first dilemma....
I've been avoiding taking the dog out in the yard because the neighbor always has their dog out-- all the time... Which means that their dog barks anytime they see mine, and it doesn't help the situation that my dog barks at dogs too...
It's not the dogs fault, it's the fact that we're trying to keep the noise level down... I mean I am tempted to just stay there with the dog and let her bark to her hearts content so the neighbors get it that our dog needs to go out at some point to play outside... Their dog, and our dogs aren't saints... She only barks because their dog is relatively a lot larger (it's a golden retriever).
The solution I am asking for is a way to be able to take my dogs out without them being driven crazy by the other dogs barking and the other dogs barking be driven crazy by ours.
Is there something that could hide the scent of other dogs, and their presence? I was thinking of putting a dog repellent by our side of the fence so neither dog try to get near the fence.
The fence isn't see through, it's wooden. I have her leashed when I take her to the yard (with a retractable leash) but she just runs to there.

on another note-- is there something I can do about the poison ivy itch on me that wont hurt the dog? She constantly licks me, my legs, etc... I usually wear shorts as its hot in this house... It's funny because even the medicines that's not really dog friendly still dont work that well... I just want to get rid of it or ease the itching without being afraid itll affect the dog.. |
