We've recently moved from an upstairs apartment with balconies off all Windows to a ground floor apartment with Windows facing the street and a communal garden.
We have a 9 year old terrier mix. In our first apartment from the windows he could barely see people/other dogs going by and so barking was only ever an issue when he was on the balcony. As soon as he started he got brought straight back in and the barking would stop.
Since we've moved he can see everything. He is constantly barking out the windows. And I mean CONSTANT barking. If I am in the living area he will sneak into one of the bedrooms and watch from the windows and bark at anything that moves. People, cats, dogs, birds.... anything really. If I am in any of the bedrooms or bathroom he is barking out at the communal garden at anything and everything.
I have tried keeping him from the windows but I can't watch him all day. I am a student and am usually busy studying. He gets out and gets a huge amount of attention from my husband when he's here. It's gotten to the stage now where he has to be kept in a box any time he is here alone or at night time.
It's really stressing me out. I am very conscious of the neighbours hearing him and I am constantly shouting at him to stop.
I need suggestions and fast. I can't put up with it much longer. It is driving me insane. I can't take my eye off him for a second.
