I really wanted to call the police on someone, who I suppose was gone for the night, about their barking dogs. Imagined a $300 ticket being stuck to their front door for disturbing the peace of the neighborhood. Lack of sleep is no joke. Causes pain for some, and increases (I would think) chances of accidents, auto, around the home, etc. A pastor w/reduced sleep might even have trouble with giving the sermon effectively. Hard to believe dogs can cause so much trouble. Makes me wish there was a muzzle requirement at night for them. Wasn't feeling anger so much (which is bad for your health) as much as wanting to solve the problem. Turned on my light with the blinds open & stood looking out the window at 5 AM to let anyone outside know I was awake, but had no one to yell out to be quiet to. Just someone's luxury animals. Didn't have much else to do after prayer, stretching, Bible, besides posting here. Thanks for listening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most dogs bark for a reason, find the reason and you will find your solution to the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some dogs are a real blessing..... and they've had them long enough for us to understand the difference in people being around or a raccoon or skunk of something. They have one bark that makes me want to call the poilce instead of looking out the window. some dogs are really really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knocked on that door and told them they had better rectify the situation NOW. They were evicted shortly thereafter. Go talk to the neighbor. If they ignore you and they're renters, call their landlord. If they own, call the law. It's not that hard to fix such a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can find him/her sometime... Oh, and dorms. You're right- I spent a year in them. It is hard to remember how I managed sleep- And I wake up when the sun comes up (God's alarm clock). Or a bit earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you not know your neighbor? Are you scared that they will reject you? I know my neighbors, sometimes I wish I didn't but I do and we keep and eye out for each others property and other stuff. In the old days we used to know the people all around us and everyone helped all, if one went away, we would feed the live stock and milk the cows. Who is your neighbor. Just a thought.~~~Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
