WTF is it with you people that have dogs?
You can’t take the time to teach them to shut the fuck up?? I have about 7-8 dogs living on my street, I rarely hear them, and when you do it is once and that’s it. I have great neighbours. But why oh why, when you walk your dog to the store, or take it to a ballpark right next to somebody’s house…which was there LONG before the ballpark, or just put it out in the yard, do you have to let it bark and bark and bark and bark. There are by laws agaisnt that you know. And why the fuck do you fuckers insist on hooking the dogs leash to MY FENCE??!!! Why do I have to continually tell you to not leave your animal tied to my fence barking it’s fucking head off?? Have a bit of respect for your fellow neighbours in the community. I don’t let my kids go screaming around the neighbourhood and I wouldn’t let my dog either. There are two things that really piss me off waking up to, un-necessary screaming kids and barking dogs. Dogs are way worse. Shut the thing up, or next time I let it go free while you’re not looking.

Wow, you sound like a really fun, happy guy! So you have about 7 or 8 neighbours on your street who have dogs that are very quiet and well behaved…yet you’re still whining about the dogs in the park?! Dogs shouldn’t be barking while playing in the park, you say? Oh the horror of what you must put up with!!! Those lousy stupid dog owners, allowing their mutts to bark while happily chasing a ball and playing with eachother!! Listen here ya hermit, dogs and children make noise when they are playing outside… ummmm usually because they are happy and excited to be playing outside. A park is a place where kids and dogs are supposed to be able to let loose and have fun! So take the fucking cactus out of your ass or move somewhere you don’t have to worry about it (good luck)!! As for the people who tie their barking dogs to your fence, I ask you this: How often are people tying their dogs to your fence??? Do you live in a busy urban area or something??? If it bugs you so much, why don’t you just attach a sign to your fence saying: “Please do not tie your dogs to this fence.” Really quite simple…isn’t it!! And much better than letting go of someone’s beloved pet so that they run into the road and get knocked down (Then again, I bet you’d love that)! Do us all a favor and get some freaking earplugs…
Call animal control, excess barking = see ya later doggy !! haha
It’s a damn park, get over it
I’d counter-act with an obnoxious bullhorn for 25 minutes straight.
i love dogs but as a shift worker, i do know how annoying it can be to hear a dog barking incessantly. OP, if you must endure this barking for a few minutes only, id say to get over it you miserable fucker. if its for hours then yes, you have a valid complaint.
Get yourself some ear plugs already.
