To want to give my neighbour a mouthful for leaving her dog barking again after we’ve made her aware twice?!

Basically as the title says

Put up with dog barking when she was going work, spoke to her and she promised she would sort it...... didn’t so then I put a note through the door asking she move the dog away from our wall, this was months ago and it stopped.

Now a few weeks ago it’s started again, not left as long but when she’s going out for an hour or so at a time, it’s driving me insane!!! Can’t wait to move.

Thoughts?

@Shannith Yes they do. I certainly did after hours and bloody hours of it one night.

I didn't shout or swear (because you've lost as soon as you've started when you behave like that) but I did fly out of the door, evidently extremely cross, and ask very firmly why on earth they thought it was acceptable for us to have to put up with that kind of racket (luckily it was still going as we were stood there) and exactly what they intended to do to resolve the situation so that we weren't inconvenienced in that way again.

Sometimes you need to confront people. You don't have to be rude or horrible about it but people making antisocial noise to the point where it disturbs others repeatedly need calling out on it.

@mytinyfiredancers see I don't class that as giving someone e a mouthful. That's being (reasonably) polite and assertive.

I've just realised I have done it once. I shouted and swore and videoed her. She was mistreating a horse though.

That was pretty extreme. Maybe I'm not as sheltered as I thought and was just having a mellow moment.
