To my classy thoughtful neighbours, who are admittedly better than everyone else. You have retaliated in order to teach the other horrible undeserving neighbourhood dwellers a much-needed lesson about dog barking. This is the third night in a row that you’ve waited until AFTER 11PM to put your dog out. Last night it barked almost incessantly for an hour. WOOF WOOF WOOF!!! Oh, but I digress, what fucking selfish to ever wish to live in a neighbourhood where we don’t have to listen to dogs bark throughout the entirety of our meager existance. And why the hell would anyone ever need uninterrupted sleep? You know who you are. It’s nice to see that after numerous visits from animal control and a warning from HRM police that your poor animal, who did nothing to deserve this, is no longer “abandoned” in his own backyard 99% of the time with no human interaction. At least the barking is no longer 24/7. I’d like to park my car outside your front door and just honk my horn all hours of the day and night, whenever I feel like it, just for your listening pleasure! I wouldn’t trust you people to care for a fucking fish let alone a poor puppy dog!

hahah – Yeah, next time the barking starts up again, (which it probably will) have a honking vs. barking contest…
I remember the bitch a while back about the dog being out all hours of the day and night; obviously the “owner” does not care for the dog, they just have one for what ever misguided reason.
Take the dog to a no-kill shelter and tell them it is being neglected. Pay the surrender fee and make sure they know who your neighbour is so they cannot get the dog back.
Hey OP ever hear the song “I’m gonna kill the dog next door” by arrogant warms? Next time the dog starts barking, take a portable stereo and set it on the front step, ring the door bell, press play and run away….
My dear ol’ departed daddy used to say: ‘Play a recording of a cat meowing and let the motherfucker bark himself to death.’
If it’s one of those tiny little puff ball shit dogs, you could always go fishing with it.
Dr. Fever, I’ve never heard anything like a ‘WOOF” out of those dogs. 😉
Agreed, it’s not the dog’s fault. A long range tranquilizer gun would work nicely though.
Cosmolilly, this is why I suggest taking the dog away from negligent owners. Negligence is simply abuse for the passive aggressive or the lazy. Neither of which deserve the loyalty of a pet.
Doesn’t really matter if it is the dogs fault. The dog is the barking offender. And this day and age you are not allowed to just kill the dogs owner. So have the dog killed. Well, at very least removed from the property. Problem solved.
