He or she could sit both parties in a room and allow grievances to be aired as well as outlining the laws with regard to dogs, noise, trespass and harassment.

When someone hates animals that much you do need to be cautious because in their mind they're justified in doing what they feel is correct.

Dogs bark. Also, there are LOTS of other dogs in this neighborhood that do more than their share.<br /><br />We've never had complaints about Ginger and George from previous neighbors. Not once, and they used to be outside dogs! Now they spend every night in the house, and most days when one or the other of us is at home, they're inside then too. <br /><br />We've always tried hard to be good neighbors and responsible pet owners, and I think we're generally very nice and considerate people. For some reason this neighbor had gotten fixated on our dogs and nothing short of zero barking is going to satisfy him...which isn't possible. I'm so tired of stressing out about it!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12512800812290518552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830720322970025712.post-278039572915880392019-05-15T16:47:49.723-04:002019-05-15T16:47:49.723-04:00I have no idea.
