Neighbors got a dog, and you lost peace? The dog constantly barks and howls. What to do in this case? Where to escape the poor neighbors suffering from the actions of the animal?
Let's talk in more detail on what to do if the dog barks constantly at the neighbors.
Reasons for barking
Before threatening the dog-neighbor with all the heavenly punishments, let's look at the cause of this behavior of the animal. It can be with:
- The psyche of the animal. Dogs whose type of GNI is choleric are screaming for no reason. Believe me, the owners themselves do not like it. But there is nothing you can do about it, except how to get rid of the pet or put up with its behavior.
- Inappropriate dog content. If the dog is practically not walked, poorly fed or bullied, she will howl, bark or whine. This is a natural phenomenon. In this case, the intervention of neighbors is necessary. It is their direct duty to get the animal out of the hands of the owners of the flayer. For there is no one else to intervene, as a rule. No one knows about dog abuse.
- The disease. When something hurts, the dog expresses pain in an accessible language. It is possible that the dog fell ill with the neighbors. So he whines or barks lingeringly, howling.
- Bad behavior. Here you need the services of a professional dog handler. Correcting behavior is a serious matter. And newcomers are not able to cope with this task on their own.
This is all very cool, but the neighbors constantly bark the dog: what to do in this case? We continue our conversation on this issue.
Trying to settle the conflict
The neighbor's dog haunts him day and night. How to deal with this? Speaking in protocol language, there are two ways to solve the problem:
- Peaceful way.
- Less loyal.
Let's consider each of them in more detail.
Peaceful ways to resolve the conflict
A dog barks at its neighbors: what to do to those who suffer from its behavior? Solve the issue with the dog owners.
Wait to roll up your sleeves and run to the neighbors with the showdown. The conflict has not brought anyone anything good. Try talking peacefully with the owner of the animal. Find out the reason for constantly dog barking, whining and howling. Adequate dog lover will do everything possible to correct the situation. And a thousand times apologize for the behavior of his pet.
Just do not threaten to immediately contact the police, poison the dog and other, not the most loyal methods of getting rid of the problem. Firstly, respect for communication is not superfluous. And secondly, for many dogs - second children. What would it be like if you threatened to poison or kill a child? I would hardly want to continue a peaceful dialogue with those who threaten.
A dog barks at its neighbors: what if its owners do not want to go peacefully? Simply put, they don’t listen to anything and behave arrogantly enough. Here you will have to choose less loyal ways to resolve the conflict situation.
Relying on the law
Scare the neighbor by law. You can refer to the "Law on the Protection of Animals", "On keeping in urban conditions" and "On Veterinary Medicine". Doesn’t want to hear this? Have to act by other methods.
Contact the police
Even at night, a dog barks at the neighbors: what should be done for those who have to endure it? If all else fails, and the owners of the dog absolutely do not want to hear the suffering neighbors, you will have to write a statement to the police.
How to do it? Come to the district police officer in his office hours, state the problem in writing. Be sure to include the date the application was written and make sure it is registered. A district policeman may refuse to accept it, citing the fact that it is possible to make noise from a certain to a certain hour. Insist on your own, do not give up.
The comrade in uniform is obliged to check the apartment in which the constantly barking dog lives. Can he make a suggestion to the owners of the dog? For the first time, the fine will amount to 3,000 rubles. After the second warning and a fine, administrative punishment is quite possible.
Statement to court
The dog barks, the neighbors complain: what if there are no attempts to resolve this issue from either the owners or the police?
You will need the help of witnesses and documents with which you contacted the police. It is also desirable to have a dictaphone in your hands, on which a conversation with the owner of the dog is recorded.
Write a statement of claim to court. Attach the necessary materials. The court will help restrain the irresponsible owner of the dog.
Contacting animal authorities
The dog constantly barks loudly at the neighbors: what to do for those who live through the wall and are forced to listen to it?
Contact the animal authorities. It is likely that the dog barks or howls because of mistreatment. If you don’t walk with the pet and beat it, then this behavior is not surprising.
What can these authorities do? At least - talk with the owners. The maximum is to take the dog from the bad owners until they bite it to death.
Collective application to the court
The dog barks at the neighbors: what should the law do for the rest of the people living below, above, or on the same platform with the troublemaker? The owner dismisses, rude, does not want to listen. Or vice versa: with a sweet smile he listens to everything, but nothing changes.
Write a class action lawsuit. It will be necessary to deal with the owner of the dog officially, since he does not understand kind words. At a minimum, an unscrupulous citizen will be fined. By the way, the suffering neighbors have the right to demand compensation from him for moral damage. Once he will lay out the nth amount from his pocket, then he will think about whether to continue to stay inactive.
What's banned
The dog barks at the neighbors: what to do with this problem? No peaceful resolution to the conflict helps. The district policeman came and had conversations. Enough for a few days, and then - all over again.
Endless barking, whining and howling bore. To such an extent that I want to send the dog to the dog forefathers. Should I start a not quite decent fight? A simple but very instructive story about this.
Once upon a time there was a girl. She was holding a German shepherd. The dog was violent in nature, remaining alone, began to smash the apartment. The hostess had to buy a box and close the dog in it when she had to go to work.
The dog began to bark and howl. The neighbors below did not tolerate. The neighbor came running to sort things out. The form of his speech, behavior and numerous threats were far from cultural.
Several months have passed. The dog stopped howling. And the neighbors lost a young son. He went for a walk, did not come home at night. Desperate parents rushed to the neighbor. She has a dog, she suddenly finds a little boy.
Lucky. The dog, despite its bad temper, was trained in trace work. The guy was found in the nearest forest. He’s alive and well, only scared.
Is it worth spoiling relationships with neighbors? Suddenly have to ask for help sometime?
Whatever happens, no matter how the dog is tired, you can not resort to the following methods:
- Poisoning.
- Shooting.
- Beating an animal.
Here, the owner has the full right to declare to the appropriate authorities.
Whistle will help
The dog barks at the neighbors: what to do to other neighbors who are forced to endure it? Especially living behind the wall with this bored dog.
Buy a scaring whistle. What is this scroll? Its sound is not audible to humans, but is very well captured by the dog. A little dog barked, and a neighbor whistled in a whistle. The dog got it over the ears once, as soon as it started to bark, the second time. And on the third the bad idea will come to her little head that it would not be necessary to yell foolishly for no reason.
In general, a whistle is a useful thing. It will not affect a person, the dog will have to be tight.And every time the dog begins to bark, immediately whistle at him. Soon, the animal will develop a conditioned reflex, and it will stop bothering with its constant barking.
Memo to the owner
We talked about if the dog barks at the neighbors, what to do for those who have to listen to it. We examined possible solutions to the problem.
Now I would like to talk a bit with the dog owners about this.
Cases in life are different. We got a puppy, and he got such a psyche, even cry. And the causeless barking is a consequence of a weakened psyche. Some dogs gnaw furniture, others rummage in a garbage can, someone spoils at home. And there are those who bark for no reason.
What should the owner do in this case? Correction of behavior will not help. You cannot beat such a dog, it will be even worse. Buy the whistle discussed above. The pet barked - the owner whistled. Develop a conditioned reflex to the whistle at the dog, and soon the animal will cease to constantly bark.
If it’s a matter of upbringing, then do not hesitate in contacting a dog handler. When the puppy was small, his yapping touched. Doggie has grown, now it looks like a calf. And the dog’s voice is such that the neighbors bounce. The pet resolutely refuses to react to the owner’s prohibitions.
Here you can’t do without adjustment. Look for a good dog handler and go to him for help.
If, however, both upbringing is orderly and the psyche, the dog may not have enough communication and walking. Walk longer, exhaust your pet for a walk. Run, play outdoor games. Ideally, if there is a field or forest near the house. There you can lower the dog off the leash, let it run as it should.
Do not forget about contact at home. Talk with the dog, praise for the right actions and desired behavior. When leaving home, leave your pet toys. All these actions will help to avoid problems with barking and neighbors.
Summarize
We examined the issue that the neighbors got a dog, she barks: what should other neighbors do in this case? How to resolve the issue? We outline the main aspects of the article:
- The conflict can be settled peacefully. Talk to the dog’s neighbors in a good, polite manner, without threats.
- If the owners refuse to make contact, contact the police.
- There is no help from the local? Go to court.
- A great option would be a class action lawsuit. The court will not only fine the negligent owner, but also oblige him to pay moral damage to those who suffered from a barking dog.
- Contact the animal authorities. It is possible that the dog is mistreated. It is possible that the dog will be taken away from such owners.
- No matter how tired the dog barking and howling, do not threaten poisoning or killing the animal. This will not lead to anything good.
- Do not attempt to eliminate the dog in inhumane ways. This is fundamentally wrong. The dog is not always to blame for their own behavior. It is better to require the intervention of the relevant authorities.
Conclusion
Now the reader knows the answer to the question of what to do: the dog barks at its neighbors without ceasing.
Contact the police, court or animal authorities. This is done in the case when the resolution of the conflict situation by peaceful means is not possible.
