To go and kidnap the neighbours dog and drop it off in a faraway location

It's Easter Sunday. Nice weather. We are all outside playing and all I can hear is yap yap yap yap. We are in a quiet village, there is no other sound apart from birds. How can they not realise that the flipping yapping is annoying to all around. I'm in the kitchen and I can still hear it & their house isn't even visible from ours.

When I brought home our cocker our neighbour was really condescending “oh you should have got a cocker poo like us, much better breed. Spaniels are nuts” etc

5 years later I now have 2 spaniels that rarely bark and he has a yappy, anxious cocker poo that I would like to kidnap and give to a family that doesn’t leave him home alone for hours on end. He gets so distresses.

Eye rolling at all the "poor dog" comments. Poor dog my arse. They're a fucking nuisance.

We all have dogs where i live. My cocker doesn’t bark really, but the old terrier next doors has its moments. She can really go it.

It doesn’t bother me at all. I was in the garden, nice sunny day and she was really barking for a long time. I wondered if it was her because she’s really old and won’t be around for much longer.

I saw her owner, my neighbour the next day and asked if it was her, she said it was and apologised, she had been barking at the rabbits.

We laughed and I said ‘well it sounds as
if she has had a new lease of life’.

I like hear barking away!

I've had that thought myself quite a few times I must admit. My fantasy far away location would be with a loving family in a different country altogether.

If it was the Pomeranian in Dreghorn the reward is now £40K, so bring it back.
