My neighbours have a beautiful dog, he is crying because they both work ft and at the weekends go out all day/or all night. They are 21-22yo. It is heartbreaking to listen to.
We have said to them "ooh he misses you when your out" and had the "he's crying all day" chat. They didn't know because he stops as soon as they get near the house in the car.
The crying did stop for a week, she came home at lunch and took him in the car for a walk (15 mins from getting home to getting back from the walk) and his DM came round to see him.
That's all stopped now. The dogs been crying all day. I don't think they realise their duty to the dog. He's only a year old. His crying sets the other dogs off barking.
Is there anything we can do? I think he'd be better off with a family who'd be there with him all day. Pets aren't toys you can just leave in the house all day. The left him alone all night on bonfire night, it was his first one and he sounded terrified all night.
