He barks when I’m out of the house

Typical of bored animals, this behavior is often reported by an enraged neighbor. To make matters worse, when you arrive home tired, you are greeted with more barking…

How to solve: hide part of the day’s ration around the house, encouraging him to “hunt” for food. Also put dog biscuits in a closed PET bottle and make some holes in it, making it difficult for the animal to access the treat and keeping it entertained.

You already complained to the neighbor, but the owner didn’t move a straw to train the “singer”. Worst of all, all it takes is one dog barking in the street for all the others to bark in unison…

How to solve: if you live in an apartment, take the case to the condominium meeting. Those who live at home and have already tried to resolve it in conversation only have one way out: to sue the owner via the Small Claims Court.
