How much dog barking do you overhear at home?

I know, the poor thing. They just shove it in the garden. Some kind of Pitbull that needs proper walks to calm down, I reckon.

My neighbour brings her sausage dog on a bark parade a few times a day. Literally walks it up and down the road while it barks it's head off. Other than that a few in the distance maybe but nothing you can hear inside with the windows closed.

We have always had dogs in my parents family. Not one has been a barky dog. My sister has 4 dogs and they occasionally bark but it is an occasional single woof not continuous.
My neighbour has a particularly polite dog that barks once at the back door to say she has had her wee and would like to come inside. She then sits on the door mat and waits (it is never more than a minute before they come and get her).
It would drive me mad if we had to listen to a barky dog all the time... However, one of the other neighbours has screechy children who aged 10 and 13 (No extra needs - we know them well) still screech like toddlers at their parents like they did when they were toddlers. That is v annoying but I wouldn't say anything.

A little if we’re outside because we back onto woods where people walk their dogs, but not much.

One of our dogs barks quite a lot though and we foster dogs that can be anxious and bark a lot sometimes.

None, praise the Lord. (My cats wouldn't tolerate any such nonsense!)

Oddly enough, Id love a ‘Fall asleep or else!’ soundtrack of a lone dog giving voice, (only every now and then, and only briefly) faraway in the dark, such as you would hear in a movie. Out in the countryside, maybe, some dog in a nearby hamlet. That sound makes me imagine a deep soft night, and drifting into peaceful slumbers in a comfortable bed.
(Ive tried those rainfall soundtracks, and all have irritated me)

we live in a semi detached bungalow. Next door have two yappy terriers who are put out every evening, several times - non stop barking and growling. Every day they are put outside to bark - sometimes as early as 5 am. I hate these dogs - no break from the noise. Neighbours hate us and do not speak to us so no point in saying anything. They ruin my enjoyment of my garden.

Loads, does my head in. I can even hear my bellend neighbour barking at his dog to wind it up.

We have two rival Jack Russells on our street. It does my head in.

i used to live in a semi detached house and the neighbours dog barked very often.
it was clearly bored/understimulated/anxious.
It was rarely walked or even let into the garden. It barked at anyone going by and would bark for half an hour at least. It howled sometimes as well.
Annoyingly the neighbour oldest daughter was often in when it was barking but she didn’t seem to care so wouldn’t shut it up.
We moved because the dog and the neighbours were assholes.

We only have one neighbour with barky dogs. They are outside a lot (expensive pure bred big dogs, probably soft and friendly but not well trained - they've built a high metal fence and the dogs run along it and bark like crazy every time anyone walks past). It's only daytime but can be annoying. I think they bit off more than they can chew tbh but they do walk the dogs on the lead (always two adults as they clearly pull on the leads) and keep them secure with the very high metal fence...

I live in a semi in a village with lots of neighbouring dogs and v rarely hear barking and never at night

My old neighbours had a spaniel that barked constantly when they went out. They adored it and when it died they came round to break the v sad news. We were delighted

I am hemmed in in a village.. neighbours have a gang of little fluffy dogs like the old lady in fish called Wanda. They are left to yap for hours!!!!! Drives me crazy

We had a neighbour who let her dogs bark in the garden at about 5 am - that was annoying. We are detached and we do have a dog. The minute he barks I call him in.

I assumed people couldn’t hear him barking inside as we are detached but now I’m worried. We do have lots of dogs round here so I think as long as it’s not in the garden…

I can’t stop him barking either - he barks at car doors shutting, the door.. he is quiet all night though.

My neighbours have a lab and I hear her bark a few times a week, usually when they're playing with her. She doesn't bark at the postie or every passing person thankfully.

There's a house in the street behind ours that used have about six dogs that were often outside barking at all hours of the day and night which was annoying, but they've either been read the riot act by someone or moved because it doesn't happen anymore.

I expect a bit of barking here and there as normal household noise, no difference really from a child screaming or a couple arguing every now and then. If it's constant I'd be going to say something, because a dog barking constantly isn't likely to be a happy dog.

Semi-detached property. Immediate neighbours have two dogs who bark on repeat every time someone comes to their front door, when people walk past their front door, and when outside in the garden, every time we go out there, and dare to move. In addition, at random other times during the day as well.

Our own dog barks once, maybe twice when someone knocks the front door.

Our garden backs onto a local park frequented by lots of dogs, so we sometimes hear barking from there as well.

We live in a city and are very lucky to have a back garden. Our neighbours two doors down let their dog out in the morning and it barks for a couple of hours then again in the evening. Were early risers so it doesn’t wake us up in the morning but it often does in the evening. Itms a big dog with a deep bark I’ve never seen them take it out for a walk and even when they’re away, the dog stays at home with a sitter so there is no respite, ever.

The dog is getting on a bit so not really worth annoying our neighbours about. Just hope they don’t replace it with a happy little
shit- that would really drive me insane

Mid terrace flat. Previous neighbour had a dog and heard barely anything for years. New neighbours have two yappy dogs that bark all day and are often let out into the garden, barking at 5am, and late at night. Drives me insane.

I live in a terraced house and we back onto a close bit behind us so loads of houses in our immediate vicinity. Never hear anything from any people but there are SO many dogs and once one starts, they all do so a lot of the time and through the night too. I've learned to block it out though and it doesn't bother me that much.

Normally none at all, ever.

I do however hear a LOT of cows mooing!!!! (As a result of living very close to a dairy farm)

Semi detached with a dog (cockapoo) next door and only hear him occasionally in summer when windows/ doors are open or even outside.

used to be a happy dog behind us which I heard more but assume they have moved as haven’t heard it recently.

Large detached house.
One neighbour with an annoying barker.

Numerous people who park outside to walk their dogs (we live close to a lake where lots of people walk) so lots of barking dogs getting out of cars. Especially annoying in the heat of summer when they walk them at 5/6am

My immediate (detached) neighbours have a dog, and if we had known we would have seriously reconsidered buying the house. Dog barks are like nails down a chalkboard for me, it absolutely sets my teeth on edge, and it bloody barks at everything: our neighbours returning home, delivery men, cars pulling into the cul de sac. It also regularly escapes and we often find it roaming around on our drive, which scares our children, because it's absolutely huge.
