I agree with Barefoot, get the dog some exercise. All dogs bark, especially when they are home. They have an instinct to protect their property so they will bark. If the owners would be more pro-active with their dog and get it some exercise, I'm sure the dog will settle down. Also, the owners should take a little more responsibility and try to correct the dog when it barks. I have two little dogs that bark at everything, but I try to discipline them by getting up out of my chair and telling them "No". A nice talk with the owners of the dog would be beneficial also. Don't go to authorities right away. Try to solve the issue with kindness first. Know one wants to loose their dog to authorities if another solution is available.
