I read about that now and again in the paper ... someone's dog is

driving the neighbors crazy. Literally, sometimes.

As someone who often sleeps during the day and works at night, I
can seriously sympathize.

Ditto. I don't know why people think it's okay to let that go on.
I can see how it might drive someone around the bend.

I agree, but I think the owner needs to be dealt with, not the dog. Or
at least not in that way. :-/

Obviously. Seems some people don't care. I'm not saying the
people should have killed the dog, just that I can see how that
happens.

While I don't think poisoning the dog is right or moral or would do it
myself. If you speak to the dog's owner, even if he complies and attemps
to train the dog, which won't happen. It doesn't stop the noise
immediately and forever. More likely it aggrevates it as the owner will
flaunt his supposed rights and make the dog bark even more. Calling the
police is useless. Killing the owner doesn't work as well, because the
police will go out of their way to find you. Killing the dog shows the
owner your displeaure and stops the noise quite readily at low risk to
you.

This is my point of view on the whole thing. I work nights and all day
the kids at the school across the street scream and yell so I know how
noise screws up your sleep and irrates you. And no I haven't even
considered poisioning them. But those teenagers who play basket-ball to
the wee hours have had some nasty things said about them.

I have good wall insulation and run a fan next to my bed.
That drowns out even most traffic noise.

I work nights. Period. No other shifts at this time unless I'm needed
for an occasional (rare) vacation spot. My shift is too hard to cover so
they seldom ask. ;-)
