This has been going on since March 2018, next door neighbours dog is left alone most of the day and night barking constantly!
Text her back in March to let her know that the dog was always barking, not wanting to upset her and cause a neighbourly drama, I tiptoed around it and said the dog is always barking when you’re out, clearly you don’t know as you’re out so I thought I’d let you know as the dog sounds distressed.
She text back and apologised and said she would give the dog calming music and let her in her bedroom as she has to work more lately.
This only started happening in March as the neighbours split up and he moved out, taking one dog with him and leaving the one that is now lonely and keeps barking... she’s then got a job which is a day job but she was also out at the pub most nights.
Now she’s moved in with her new bf and left her ds (21) living in the house with his gf (18) who are both literally never home.
The dog is howling and barking all the time, mostly In the evening and most days... sometimes she’s ‘crying’ which just breaks my heart for her.
About four months ago, neighbours from about 8 houses down knocked on my door at 1am worried because the dog had been barking all day, they thought maybe it was an elderly person who had died and the dog was left alone... i explained and sent next door neighbour a message to let her know.
Text neighbour again on Xmas eve to tell her that the dog is howling and she said sorry Blah blah blah, dog is still howling tonight.
Aibu to call rspca? Or what would you guys do?
The dog is so sweet and lovely, she doesn’t deserve to be left like this.
