Barking dogs

[Nebulous]

Hypothetical situation:

Your neighbor has a dog that constantly barks.

What will you do about it?

You can ask your neighbor to let the dogs inside. If that doesn't work and your town has a noise ordinance, you can call the cops and they'll come out and threaten to fine the neighbors if they don't keep the dogs quiet. Some places will call the ASPCA (is that the right group?) and they'll make sure the dogs are taken care of and not neglected.

I will speak to my neighbor about it. I don't like to hear dogs bark. I am someone that is closer to cats than dogs. So, I won't keep quiet about it.

I personally would speak to my neighbor about the dog and let them know that the barking was causing an issue and would leave it at that. If they didn't make any attempt to calm the dog or prevent the annoying barking I would then report it.

I have a neighbor myself, she has a little dog and she often lets her out into the garden and when she does, she tends to bark a lot, she will either tell her to be quiet or will bring her in if she gets too much.

If I speak with the neighbour and if he or she doesn't care to do something reasonable about it, I will report him or her to authorities for noise pollution.

I'd talk to the neighbour about the dog barking before doing anything else. If they don't bother to stop the constant dog barking, I'll report the neighbour.

The best GIF to describe how I would be feeling in that kind of situation.

There's nothing else left to do but sink in dispair.

Barking dogs are preferable to crying and screaming children.

A neighbour we are living close to called the cops on her neighbour because of how often and loud her dogs bark especially at night.
