Do u think I should call the council about the dogs?

[Monalisa77]

Hear me out. I absolutely love dogs, i love playing with them, cuddles, stroking, taking them for walks. Etc but i absolutely detest the barking. Its not only giving me headaches, its keeping me awake at night and waking me up when im not ready (i need a good 10 hours sleep to function during the day) theyre in the kennels if u haven't guessed already. I read its heavily against leaving them in kennels for long periods of time too

Its 1am and i can hear them barking, i had 5 hrs sleep last night so i feel ready to go to sleep now but also feel my headaches getting worse. I've had a sever minegrane (sp) so they're probably not helping it. But theyve been there for years but its lately just getting worse. I can even hear them When were in the front room roraring so i dont think moving rooms would even be the answer (i do go into my mums as i dont hear them in there but she snores so that also wakes me up), theyve been barking till 2am some nIghts lately

I read on some forum someone tried to get something done but they wouldn't due to them Not barking during the night but ours are

Its A bit awkward to talk to the neighbours due to it being behind our back garden. Its not like its the same estate. I was thinking of leaving a note ontop of the fence or something like that😂

Im also concerned about their well being that accessive barking means theyre not being looked after properly. My brother and sister s dogs dont bark that much

Yes

No

I read this over twice and I think that you live near a dog kennel? Did you know that there was a dog kennel there when you moved in? The kennel owner is running a business and dogs bark. There is a dog kennel next door to where I work and the dogs bark all day long.
Where I go on vacation there is a day camp that has horses. Some people bought the house next door and decided that they did not like to live next door to horses. They got a lawsuit going and put the camp out of business. Maybe they won in court but they better hope that they never need help from anybody in town because they will not get it.

[Monalisa77]

Its just in the neighbours garden, we have been here since the estate was first built, i didn't sleep in the rtoom i do now n i had a better life when we were kids

[Monalisa77]

Its only recently gotten worse that i can hear them roaring

Is it a dog kennel business or just some neighbor that keeps his dog locked in a cage?

[Monalisa77]

neighbour

[exitseven]

Just go over to his house and tell him tat he needs to do something about his dog. If it persists, get a 5 gallon bucket of dog poop from a local dog kennel ans dump it on his front porch. I am thinking he gets the message.

You can get a box of foam ear plugs for a couple dollars that will last you a half year. You stick them in your ear holes and they reduce noise by 20 to 30 dB. Every pharmacy and hardware store carries them.

[Monalisa77]

I've got sensitive /waxed ears and dont c y i should also during the night when im trying to sleep?

[Monalisa77]

I live in the uk

[rigmarole]

Because you want to sleep. That's why.

[Monalisa77]

Shouldn't b accessive barking, the drs told me i can't put things in my ears

[rigmarole]

Then spend $20 and get a sleep mask/sleep ear muff thing that goes over your ears to cancel noise and light.

Maybe have Animal Control Look Further into it. Not sure What Good it will do... xxoo

[Monalisa77]

Do they have that in the uk?

[Paris13]

Um... I Shall Find Out? xx

[Paris13]

Animal Welfare Officer. xx

[Paris13]

Tanks, Gag. xxoo

[aceleon]

dogs shouldn't be left out at nights, the one at fault is not you, it is the dumbass prick who leaves them outside at nights.

[Monalisa77]

Thanks, yeah i read it isn't illegal

[aceleon]

but should be.
this is sort of an animal abuse. you risk them getting attacked by other animals.

[Monalisa77]

Its at the back of their garden and agreed.

[aceleon]

you need to talk to him/her
explain that they are not only bothering people that way but also might get attacked during night.

[Monalisa77]

Its not in our estate, when I've heard them before i feel like they werent nice people, they also played loud music during the summer.

[aceleon]

do you have a man in your home, father, brother, partner etc etc? make him or them go do the talking and if they are not nice, well so they shouldn't either.

[Monalisa77]

My dad has anger issues and might make things worse (he's also got a lot of health issues atm) . My mum would be best but it doesn't seem to bother her and doesn't want to do anything (she even said before she doesn't care about the dogs) I don't know if calling the council theyd be able to do anything because they said we need to deal With the issue first on the website

[Monalisa77]

Its just a v awkward situation, im surprised noone else has complained tho.. Next door has two young kids

[Monalisa77]

Next door could do it, he seems pretty tough and a decent bloke, if we ever get a chance to talk to them ill defo bring it up

[aceleon]

indeed awkward but if law is not helping and you are the only one who is troubled, only you can do something about it but i don't know what either. i just hope you won't poison them or such thing.

[Monalisa77]

Lol no i wish i didn't have a guilty conscious lol we have birds nest aswell which is just as bad but definitely nothing can do about those despite my dads best efforts to block the path when they ain't there

[aceleon]

try ear plugs or listening music when sleeping.

[Monalisa77]

I have sensitive ears, i am working thro my issues just ridiculous about the dogs lol

[aceleon]

i don't know what else to say, good luck with that.

[Monalisa77]

Do u think the note could b a good idea? Even flying it in so they won't know its from me😂

[aceleon]

don't think so. if they are not nice people like you suggested.

[Monalisa77]

Would they know its from me?

[Monalisa77]

Or even get the address and post a letter

[aceleon]

i don't know.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Yes you should that barking would drive me crazy

[RedInnocent68]

Yes, Karen. Call away.

[Monalisa77]

? Did u read my post? Im not 1 to usually formally complain about things

[RedInnocent68]

I did. I’m just being a jerk. I used to hate my neighbours dogs too. One reason I was happy to move. 🤗🤗

[Roudyrebel8]

If you are concerned then yes
