ULPT revenge: how to get revenge on neighbours over their NOISY dogs
Posted by peachalany@reddit | UnethicalLifeProTips | View on Reddit | 12 comments
Just to preface this, I have tried all the nice measures.
Neighbours dogs bark so loudly throughout the day that I can hear them through ear buds. They have caused me to miss out on important meetings, remove myself from my own house just to clutch onto whatever sanity I have left, abruptly awoken me from my sleep on more occasions that I can count, and the list goes on.
After a confrontation the owner openly admits they dgaf about the mental detriment they are causing me and their neighbours. Every avenue I have tried is a dead end and now I want revenge.

do not put Ex-Lax in sausages and throw them over the fence

Please don’t punish the dogs for their crappy owner.

Don’t lookup their mortgage holder and inform them that the homeowner is housing vicious dogs

Don’t go to an ear doctor and get diagnosed with a hearing problem and sue for damages (permanent disability is in the $4m range)

Don’t put you hands on the fence to yell at your neighbor about the loud dogs and get bit and sue for damages

I had to do a lot of research. Reddit is a good resource on what to do if you do some digging. In a nutshell, multiple calls to the cops, getting them to open a file, and then hiring a lawyer. You will win but you’ll have to work for it. I fuckin hate these people with a passion. I’m older so back in the day this situation has more DIY remedies but those will land you in a heap of trouble today - to the point where they’ll pull up video and records of who bought rat poison in the area.

Killing the dogs is too extreme bro

A loud incessantly barking dog will push the most high functioning person to dark corners of their mind. Now imagine someone who’s brain injured, sleep deprived because they work nights and the dog barks all day, someone barely keeping it together because of ptsd or mental illness. Everyone thinks everyone else out there is normal functioning. There are some people very close to the edge and one reason consideration for your neighbors matters.

I had a neighbor dog that would lunge at the fence and bark his fool head off everytime I went in the back yard!
I threw a 32oz cup of water at him and he ran off and hid. I then kept a full cup on the fence rail at the ready. I only used it three times before he learned to go to the other side of his yard when I went outside.
Problem solved.

Can you get an ultrasonic noice maker to discourage dog barking? How far away are the dogs?
Can you call animal control?
Tell us about the neighbors. Do they have a nice yard? How close are they? Is this a rural area or suburban?

Those ultrasonic devices do not work on determined barriers
