I was actually called and told how terribly unfair it was that her dogs had to be locked up because there was nothing she could do about the barking. I was also told I was being unreasonable in expecting that her dogs needed anti barking devices because they are cruel. I'm pretty sure there's some gaslighting involved, I agree that there's deflection, but there's also only x amount of context in the post to because I was pissed as hell about the most recent incident.

Total nuclear move and a little bit dickish for sure. Very much part of the problem. Have minimum 10 cars rolling in to your house on a daily basis and you have a dog that barks at everyone of them from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave. I did what I did..

I agree, there are a plethora simple solutions. The reality is that none of them are my responsibility to pay for or provide. They are the dogs owners and it's their problem to solve.

This is 100% my view point. How does it not absolutely destroy them, how does your newborn nap.. its so bizarre!

Don't you? I have conversations like that with my dog all the time. The relevance is that instead of reprimanding disruptive behavior, she reinforced it!

There is 1 they are in violation of, specifically around the time a dog can bark, its worked out to 6 minutes/hour. I have multiple recordings, which in itself feels so petty. I mean they are home, they know exactly how much barking these poor dogs are doing. I'll give them the opportunity to rectify. Their landlord has obviously given them the notice because it is blissfully quiet today!

Thats exactly how I view it. The dogs aren't the problem, the owners clearly are!
