£3,000 fine for barking dog owners

[stockhausen]

The owners of a Jack Russell that kept neighbours awake with its "continuous" barking, have been fined almost £3,000. Cardiff council said it recorded 1,350 barks in a 45 minute period, which is about one bark every two seconds. (LINK)

One of our inconsiderate neighbours puts out their wee dog last thing at night and every morning at about 6AM - it yaps incessantly. During the week it acts as an alarm clock but at weekends and in the evening it is incredibly annoying. I have never been able to pinpoint where it is but perhaps I will make more of an effort following this case.

So you can poop through the owner’s letterbox right?

That's barking mad! How the hell do you stop a dog barking? Put a muzzle on? or shove some socks in it's mouth.

Or look after your dogs and don’t just throw them in your back yard for all hours.

Good, owners who leave their dogs out all day and all night barking to get in should have them taken off them.

'round 'ere it seems like every other house has a yappy dog.
We need to bring back dog licenses so we actually have data on how many dogs of each type there are.
Then when it seems everyone has registered their dogs, start taxing the nuts off them.

Hopefully we can now see unlimited fines for owners of ****** cats who let them out to spread excriment around everyone eses gardens.

Or at the very least make it legal to shoot them
If caught In your garden

Putting it to sleep would work.

Can we have fines for screaming/shouting/crying children too?

 

[Nasher]

The fines for annoying dogs are nuts. After the initial fine if they don't stop the owner can be fined £500 a DAY.

If you have a yappy dog and someone reports it, you basically either need to train it properly asap or get rid of it. Which is fine by me.

Get in! I might finally sleep past half five!

And for neighbours kids playing loud music

And specially for people that use loud petrol mowers & Hedge Cutters on a Saturday & Sunday

Took two years to resolve though. That's far too long.

I agree that poor dog mouth muscles & throat must have been really aching..

Do what you want. When your hobby / pet starts causing a disturbance expect disgruntled neighbours and in this case, a hefty fine.
