Provided its daytime and only limited periods of time I really don't think dog wardens or housing associations would be that bothered. Sounds to me like your neighbour is just a picky so and so.
Take no notice of our ever helpful friend bcw123.
I was talking to my neighbour this morning and she said the girl 2 doors down had a dog at one point but 'got rid' because it was barking but it was doing it at night.
I also found out that there was work being done on a house behind me yesterday and a number of dogs in the street were barking but because of the alleyway behind us the noise was echoing around.
She also told me that the people in the street off ours had forced a polish couple to rehome their dogs because of the noise, either that or find a new home. They whole street had got together and went to the housing association to complain and that was the outcome. The association never even came out to check on the noise just sent letters. I think this is down to the fact that we all have to sign a form at the start of our tenancy about anti social behaviour including dog noise.
I'm meeting a lady tomorrow morning about the barking but must admit I'm a bit sceptical about weather it'll work while I'm outbut am willing to give anything a shot.
I have thought about rehoming the male, he's a great dog but I feel awful for him because I can't walk him due to his fear-aggression, I don't feel confident enough to be able to control him if he were to attack another dog and I'd never forgive myself if he were to kill another dog. He's a soppy big thing but thinks he's the size of a chihuahua and nearly knocks you over when he wants attention. DS is getting fed up with being jumped up on and hurt every time he walks in the room, even when he ignores him and turns he still jumps although the female has learnt and now just rubs her head on him, the male's just a bit thick!
We'll see what this lady says tomorrow.SPC #329 £471/£500 banked

I still talk out loud to my mam and dad:o Not when anyone is about though. People think I'm daft enough as it is:rotfl::rotfl:

Yes, they are very carefully and cleverly linked to spend - not random at all. Before Xmas I did several £40 shops as I had a lot of competitor spend cs mocs - hence this one is for a £50 spend. The spend that generated the £7 off £50 moc was only £23. The till spits are usually targeted at £10 more than your ususal spend to get you to spend a bit more. So if you have more than one card, and can be arsed, try to keep them at different spend thresholds, leave one or two unused for a while, buy a small item separately before your main shop, etc - this way you can max the cs spits.
Afternoon everyone:)Just used my £7 off £50 tillsplit in T's. Onto the next CC now;) I usually let each card get to 500 points then move to the next one. That also means that when my CC vouchers come through they will always be at least £5 in points which is handy if I want to double them up because its a minimum of £5:T
Went into T's to have a massive scan of stuff because their is so much Xmas stuff floating about but the flipping scanner was broken:(
It's really mild here today but it was so windy and wet last night:eek:Lovely to finally see the sun out today:)Just going for a quick catchup now.Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:0 -

Hmm after yesterday success a dismal show today only 5 correct answers! My worst I think!!
Anyway gave my daughter all the advice given last night re Camp america and she is so grateful.
Busy week ahead with her off to Manchester and OH has dreaded ESA assessment/interview which he is really nervous about. We have read all the information on the thread on here and I don't think he has a chance of getting any points so we will have to appeal and hope for the best.
Hope everyone's enjoying a lazy Sunday xx0 -
Just a thought but if she is trying that hard to get to you what about recording your voice saying things to her/singing etc and leave a gap of a minute or two in between it and leave it playing on a cd in the other room and that way she may still think you are there.
I forget which room you leave them in but if you dont already, leave them in there while you are still in the house and it may break the association of we go in that room when you go out type of thing.
I would try that but if she hears anyone she barks, more so if she hears me, I was hoping that the dap diffuser would help if she has separation anxiety but so far it's not working
They're in the kitchen and go in there when we have our meals but I will try to put them in there a bit more and see what happens, thanks.SPC #329 £471/£500 banked
