If you happen to live by a barking dog, there are a couple steps you can take to keep your neighborhood calm.
First, try contacting the barking dog's owner and ask them to do something about the noise. On some occasions the pet owner may not be conscious of the problem and hopefully take steps to stop the barking right away.
If this does not work, then call your local humane society. They will want the name and address of the dog owner, and they will need your name and address too. They will also want to know when the dog is disturbing people.
Usually a letter from the humane society is sent to the dog owner, and usually this letter takes care of the barking problem.
However, if the barking dog continues to bark, you will have to call the humane society again. This time a complaint will probably be issued, and an officer will deliver it to the dog owner.
A protest must be signed by households within a practical distance of the dog owner. If the owner fails to do something about the barking, he or she might have to appear in a court.
Dont forget, if your dog is doing the barking; steer clear of any unpleasantness for your neighbors and yourself with some easy and sensible training for your dog.
In addition, if you are unlucky enough to be the neighbor of a barking dog, remember that you can do something about it. There ought to be a law, and there is!
