Our next door neighbor has a small friendly dog and decided to get another one of the same species to keep it company. The new one constantly barks an irritating yappy bark when we go outside and frequently excites the friendly one to bark as well. It is so aggressive with its growling and barking that it scares the young children that are visiting us. It tries to squeeze through the wrought iron fence to attack the children.
The owner sometimes comes outside to get the aggressive dog and bring it inside. She apologizes to the children or us when she gets the dog. Unfortunately on most occasions the dog is left to bark which starts the neighbor's dogs to bark as well. Our once peaceful backyard on the lake is now dog hell.
I don't want to upset our relationship with this relatively new neighbor. We are considering purchasing one of the various ultrasonic dog barking devices such as the Dog Silencer Pro or the Super Bark Stop but it appears to be only about 50% successful.
Have any of you tried one of the ultrasonic devices to control a neighbor's barking dog? If so, how well did it work? Do you have any other suggestions?
