What kind of dogs does the neighbor have? Maybe they have been de-barked...Seriously, I have 8 that go out on my back deck and I am super careful because my neighbor has cancer and her bedroom is not 30 feet from my deck. I just go out with them onto the deck and we scoot right back in if they start barking. Neighbors should not have to put up with barky dogs-I know I don't like to hear them but some noise can be expected..Is there any way you can put up a barrier that would cut down on the transmission of the noise...and also keep your dog from seeing others and barking. Training with a noiseless whistle might help...
My feeling is make REEEALLY good friends with the neighbor and maybe she will stop being bothered by the barking...I do know of 2 families in my neighborhood who sold their homes and moved because of incessant barking..That was a bit extreme... |
