Would a barking dog next door put you off buying a house?

That ⬆️

Yes.

Definitely. A constantly barking dog is one of the most annoying things you can live next to!

Yes

Yes

Absolutely. Both my neighbours have two dogs. They bark at passers by, neighbours, delivery people, relatives, me, when I’m in my garden, cats, traffic, fireworks, other dogs. It’s exhausting.

Yes. I would take it as an indicator that it's owners don't care about the dog or anyone else.

Yes

Yes

Yes

Yes

Yes, I wouldn't buy the house.

Yes. Our neighbour with the yappy dogs has just moved and the streets so quiet now.

Yes!

I wouldn't want to live anywhere it was possible to hear neighbours or dogs so any noise at all would be a deal breaker for me.

Yes. Especially yappy dogs!

My shepard has taken to barking. Everytime he goes out, we can't figure out why, he makes me want to move house, so I feel for the neighbours and do apologise as much as I can!

So yes, even as a barking dog owner, it would put me off. My own dog is driving me crazy, never mind others!

Yes, I wouldn't even consider it if I got the impression that the barking was a reoccurring problem- and I say that as a massive dog lover with my own dogs. Nothing worse than something that disrupts peaceful enjoyment of your own home.

Are you thinking of buying a house next to a barking dog? Do you like dogs yourself?

Yes. I live next door to somebody who has a dog that barks constantly and it is really annoying!

Yep.

Yes

Yes. I would take it as an indicator that it's owners don't care about the dog or anyone else.

Yes. I would take it as an indicator that it's owners don't care about the dog or anyone else.

Yes. Though I might - if I liked the house enough - try knocking on other neighbours' doors and getting more information.
As in, just because it was barking at the time of the viewing doesn't mean it is barking all the time???
