This Week's Barking News Roundup - 04/22/13

Well, this day started bright -n- way too early, thanks to an idiot neighbor's barking dogs. I'd like to have whatever he's had in order to sleep through the racket.

This dog’s bark was worse than his bite

Excerpt: They may be man’s best friend, but not keeping your pet dog under control could be disasterous. In a curious case, a man lost his life and six others sustained injuries after an argument over the constant barking of a dog in Kotherapally, Ranga Reddy district.

Homeowner growls over neighbor’s barking pets

Excerpt: We have a new neighbor who has three dogs that bark incessantly, both during the day and at night. We asked the owner to try to keep them quiet, but he just shrugged and said: "All dogs bark. That's just what they do." What are our options here? We can't even sleep at night because of the noise!

Noise report: Barking dogs still a problem!

Excerpt: Complaints from neighbours about dogs barking are still ‘top of the pops’ with people in Fermanagh, but it seems that officers in the Townhall are also at the top of their game in handling them.

From the TWBNR Advice Column Department, we have this question:

I have a new neighbor that moved in about 8 months ago. They have a dog that they keep outside 24 hours a day. I don't think that its ever been in the house. This dog barks non stop at night. It seriously wakes my wife and I up every night at some point. I have talked with the neighbors about this, they refuse to do anything.
