Silencing Your Neighbor's Dog Through Personal Intervention

How to persuade your neighbors to quiet their chronically barking dogs
This page describes the various classifications of people who keep barking dogs, and provides an appropriate strategy for dealing with each group. It also goes into detail about what you can expect from the police in the event that they should become involved.

What not to say
Living in a house inundated with externally-fed noise can bring life to the boiling point, generating unrelenting turmoil and keeping everyone upset. With the entire family under acoustic siege and everyone exhausted, it is easy to say something you shouldn't. But some things are best kept under wraps and there are a couple things that you must never say. This page will tell you what they are.

How to put your neighbor's barking dog on YouTube - and why you might want to
This page will tell you how, by videotaping your neighbor's dog and publicly posting your digital video on YouTube, you can shame your irresponsible neighbor while bringing pressure to bear on your local authorities to take action. In addition, after you have completed your upload, you can include a link in any emails you might choose, so that the email recipient need only click on the link in order to view your neighbor's dog, in all his glory, displayed in full color, barking furiously on their computer screen.

Remote, free-standing, sound-emitting, anti-barking devices
This section describes a type of device you can place in your yard, that may serve to quiet a nearby canine by bombarding his owners, and/or the dog himself, with noxious noise, every time the animal barks. However, please note that this website has received numerous complaints from readers saying that the devices described in this section had no discernable impact on the barking of their neighbor's dogs. Therefore, even though we have had a few positive reports, we do not recommend these products.

Reverse telephone directory for determining the phone number of the dog's owners
For people living in the United States and Canada, this reverse directory may be able to provide you with your neighbor's telephone number. Just type in the address where the barking dogs live and the reverse directory should be able to provide you with the phone number of the owners. Unless of course, it is an unlisted number.
