We have a new family next door with a good size dog which they keep in the backyard. The dog barks all the damn time. It barks at night and also during the day and even wakes me up at sunrise everyday.![]()
Last week it barked for nearly three days straight. I finally figured out that they had gone away somewhere and just left the poor thing in the yard the whole time. What was even worse is that it snowed one of those nights and has been in the 30's everynight as well. I can see most of their yard from my upstairs windows and while there is a covered porch I see no dog house anywhere.The poor dog must have been freezing!
I don't want to be a bitch but I don't think this animal is being treated properly. I don't feel I can speak to the neighbors in person without causing bad blood between us. Should I call someone about this issue? They would know it was me or my husband who called too because no one else lives on this end of our street yet since it is a brand new and still in progress development.
They only moved in 3 weeks ago. Maybe the dog just isn't used to it's enviroment yet and that is why it barks so much? But then again what about them leaving the dog alone and outside for three days in such cold weather?
I am a pet owner myself but even if I was not I think I would feel bad for this dog. I am afraid that if I call someone about this animal it will end up being put down and that sure isn't what I would want to see happen. What should I do?
