If you are live near a barking dog, there are some things you can do to keep your neighborhood quiet.

First, contact the dog owner and ask him to do something about the problem. Sometimes the owner may not be aware of the problem and will take steps to stop the barking right away.

If this does not work, then notify your local humane society. They will want the name and address of the pet owner, and probably your name and address too. It's also a good idea to keep track of when the dog is disturbing people.

Usually a letter from the humane society is sent to the dog owner, and usually this letter takes care of the barking problem.

However, if the barking dog continues to bark, you will have to call the humane society again. This time a complaint will probably be issued, and an officer will deliver it to the dog owner.

A complaint must be signed by persons representing households within a reasonable distance of the animal owner. If the owner still does not do something to stop the barking, he may have to appear in court.

keep in mind, if your dog is doing the barking; avoid the ugliness for yourself and fellow neighbors with some reasonable dog training.

In addition, if you are unlucky enough to be the neighbor of a barking dog, remember that you can do something about it. There ought to be a law, and there is!
