My neighbours a few doors down are lovely but they have a little terrier dog which yaps and yaps and yaps from the moment they leave the house until the moment they arrive home. They both seem to work long hours and over the last few weeks I haven't seen anyone in the house during the day until very late.
The dog just sits at the front window barking. I'm a good few doors down and I can hear it (unless I play the TV or music loudly, which in itself is antisocial!) It's spoiling my time off!
AIBU to think that working full time and dog ownership (when making no provision like a dog sitter/walker) is just not compatible? What can I do about the noise? They're nice people, I don't want to fall out with them or get them into trouble but the barking is really really doing my head in! (I also feel sorry for the dog being on its own for so long and wonder what it does about doing its business?!)
Why do people get dogs then leave them alone all day, most days?!
Sorry for the rant, I'm annoyed because I want to sit in my garden and read in peace but I can't because of the yapping!
