I am not happy re confronting the neighbour as she lost her husband end of last year and it affected her badly. So I will have to continue on as best I can.
Have to say I have enjoyed this thread - difficult subject as it is
If you want this sorting you are going to have to speak to her as it says she may be unaware this is disruptive.
Reporting a barking dog
The occasional bark or 'woof' is usually not a problem for neighbours and others in the community but when barking becomes disruptive it's often considered unacceptable and unpleasant to many people.
If you're concerned about a dog barking excessively near you there are things you can do:
- Speak to the owner. They may not be aware there's an issue, or they may be using some of the advice above to try and resolve the issue.
- If speaking to your neighbour hasn't worked or isn't an option, try contacting your local council about the noise complaint. This can help resolve the underlying issue, or if there is a welfare complaint they will contact us. Contact your local council about a barking dog .
