Tell the owners to shut it the up. If they don't, throw some hot grease on it.
I'm just playing, don't do that.
I love dogs, but there's a dog in my neighborhood (I'm guessing one house behind me and one house over) that barks almost 24-7. I thought maybe it was new to the neighborhood, so I gave it some time to get acclimated. But damn, it's been a month now and it literally barks about 20 hours a day.
What should I do? Go tell the owners something? Give it some meat? Buy a barking collar, jump over the fence, and put it on the dog?

You want me to pick up some Antifreeze for ya?![]()
I don't want to kill the dog. I just want it to be quiet for a few hours a day.
Walmart. For about 30 bucks you can get a generic Daisy Red Ryder and a pack of BBs. The Daisy isn't powerful enough to penitrate the skin- as is suggested by its name- so it won't leave a mark, and also doubles as a bird extricator and cheap entertainment when Timvp arrives home late and you have a bit of misplaced anger or a high BAC level.
The dog next to us used to bark. USED to.
May I suggest you wear it yourself!![]()
Just talk to the owners, see why its barking. Dogs don't bark for the of it, there's always a reason for the madness.
Yeah I know. I'm thinking they might have it tied up. I'll have to look over the fences and investigate.
Reminds me of the Sopranos episode, "Whoever did this," where a "tragic, electrical fire" killed Tony's horse, Pie-O-My.
"It is terrible....whoever did this."![]()
Talk to your Neighbors, are you mad?????![]()
Take your tv, grab an extention cord, set it up facing into the dog's yard, and pop in tapes of games 1-7 in the NBA Finals. That'll make him go right to sleep.

So you watched HBo today I see.
buy a mexican hairless dog (they dont' bark) glue some hair on it, and "replace" the barking dog.
its fool proof.
I say try talking to the neighbors before you break out the ammo. You can also try calling the police. Nothing like the cops knocking at your at 3 am to let you know your barking dog is disturbing the neighbors.
Now, I don't recommend this, because it's mean, but we had this exact same problem when we first moved into our new apartment a couple years ago. The neighbor's dog was tied up at night because they don't really have a fence. And the dog barked non-stop all night. The dog was kind of re ed, I think, like maybe it got heat-stroke as a puppy... I'm not kidding. It tried to pee on people all the time. Anyway, we tried talking the neighbors, but the problem persisted. So one night, my husband walked over there and untied the dog. They started bringing the dog in at night.
I guess all dogs are re ed... lolIt tried to pee on people all the time.
Kori there should be a city ordinance against owners that allow their dogs to bark non stop and cause a nuisance to the neighboring homes. The city i believe investigates as to what the cause may be and gives the owners a chance to take care of the problem, and if they dont the dog can be taken from them. Atleast that is what happens out here, not sure about san antonio, but im sure they got something like that there.
I'd go with ZStomps recommendation.
Do you have a H.O.A.?
Report it to them and they'll send a nice little letter
There's a couple of dogs next to Jekka's place that ALWAYS ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS bark at anything that moves...they scare the daylights out of me when I'm walking to the door in the dark! I think in one drunken moment of intelligence, I suggested we light them on fire.
print out a noise ordanance warning on your printer..
make sure you put that it is warning #1 and after warning #3 they will have to pay a 2,500.00 fine. Pin the note to the front door.
If not call the animal abuse hotline from a pay phone, tell them you think there is a dog in pain, or in trouble, maybe after they get a visit or two , they may bring in the dog.
I recently moved to a brand new neighborhood and I brought my Catahoula with me. She barked and howled so much it was annoying me, so I figured my neighbors couldn't be too happy either. I now have her signed up for 6 weeks of obedience training but in the meantime I took her back to the old house (which I still own) where she is comfortable.
"maybe he's trying to tell you something..."

I took out the garbage just now - nonstop ing barking. Not to mention the fact that there's like 7 of them at that house, and as I just found out, one in the yard directly behind them that eggs them on. My landlord has offered to give them poisoned steaks.
