Judy, The neighbors on the other side of the 3 dogs have complained. They don't bother me that much, as far as barking.
G, I think Skip's eyes are bigger than his teeth. He barks at me and shows his teeth like he hates me and could eat me to pieces. But when I visited over there it is a very charming little host who wants a petting.
I think the fence changes his personality and the other two dogs follow suit.
Well, don't go stickin' your hand thru the fence :)
Our neighborhood association just sent out a letter informing us that they have received numerous written complaints about barking dogs. From now on ...
First offense will result in a letter from the association (a friendly warning).
Second offense will be result in another letter (threat of a citation).
G, I read that Cobb County is working on a similar ordinance. I suppose this will be a county law, if passed. A warning, and someplace down the line you will have to pay a $250 fine if your dog continues barking.

How do you debark a dog?
Rock, it's already been in effect for more than 7 years in Cobb for a dog to bark excessively, see below:

Mike,
ReplyDeleteThanks! So, it is already on the books. I'm glad Willow is not much of a barker. I wonder if my neighbors know of this? heh heh.
