Break my Nintendo Wii controller
effigies and nooses
no joke.
Let the dog outside and bark for 15-30 minute stretches of time, no matter the hour of day. I’d get woken up randomly sometimes until I got a noise machine to at least somewhat drown it out.
I‘ll never forget this cause dealing with it for 2+ years now has changed my whole attitude on dogs, I always thought I might eventually own one and now it‘s the last thing I want in this world. Though I acknowledge some people are good owners with well trained dogs, awful owners like my neighbour now stick out to me and annoy me much more too.
Have you considered calling in a noise complaint?
I have considered it, but I didn‘t do it cause I had bad experiences with police in my life leading me to think of them and more broadly the state as useless at best or harmful at worst. I don‘t want anyone to shoot the dog, I just want it to be quiet. I tried communicating that with my neighbours, but that didn‘t work either as they said they would try to train it or something and just didn‘t.
Either way, I found some coping mechanisms like my noise machine, going to the office to avoid WFH (I like it, but not here!) and noise cancelling and in a year I want to move again and this time I plan to spend a few hours at any apartments to check for loud dogs first.
Fair enough pal. As long as it actually works for you. Don’t actually need to call the popo though, give bylaw a ring.
Making my sick with cancer granddad lift up and throw away a rather big piece of furniture that he was intending to give away to someone the next day and left outside our apartment in some empty spot (not in anyone’s way) because she didn’t like it in her field of view, threatening to complain about fire safety (it was in the far corner from the exit!)
Went after the other neighbor with a weed whacker after the other neighbor had dumped a bucket of water on the first neighbors wife.
That’s quite the neighborhood spat
They still live next door to each other but there is a restraining order in place.
