Hi All,
looking for an option that I have not already explored. I am living in a courtyard villa mostly to enjoy the backyard with my pup. My next-door neighbor also has a dog that is reactive every time we are outside with growling and mind-numbing barking to the point where my sweet pup can't even do her business in peace. Not to mention my enjoyment of my yard as well.

yes, I have already spoken to the neighbor, she has a doggie door since she is out a lot so its great for her but for the neighbors listening to barking day and night, not so much. I told her how bad it was but she could care less.

I also contacted the villages customer service and they directed me to animal control. not sure this elevates to that level since the barking is intermittent, i.e. he reacts to activity around his area.

Is this just my luck? why do people leave barking dogs out when we are all living so close to each other? not the experience I wanted here for sure as a newbie....

any suggestions welcomed....
