      <description><![CDATA[Ms. Sarah Bishop, Sherman Oaks, CA, United States of America<p>We have a neighbor who leaves their two large dogs outside unattended in the yard all day while at work and on weekends so pretty much everyday. We have complained to animal control about the barking of these dogs non stop for hours in end. We actually had a meeting at the local shelter with a mediator about the issue and nothing has been resolved months later. When confronted about the disturbance again the owner backlashes and blamed us for being &quot;too sensitive&quot;. To be honest, it&#039;s cruel and neglectful to leave your dogs unattended outside for hours on end everyday number one and number two it&#039;s extremely selfish and inconsiderate to blame the neighbors who are disturbed by the barking and who are unable to have peace and quiet in their own homes because of it for being &quot;too sensitive&quot;. These dogs deserve a home who&#039;s owners give them the love and attention they deserve and to a home where they are not neglected and abusing the neighborhood by the distress of the neglect they are in Day in and day out. It should be illegal to own a dog and leave them unattended point blank.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ms. Liz Winters, Dayton, Ohio, United States of America<p>I have to put up with an awful dog that barks at me every time I&#039;m in my backyard and the owners are no where in sight. I truely believe I am developing mental issues because of this dog. I finally called animal control and the owner threw a fit. Now I have worse anxiety because the neighbors are now hostile. Uncontrolled and unattended dogs in a residential area should be a crime.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[L Biggs, Thousand Oaks, CA, United States of America<p>What I don&#039;t understand is how this isn&#039;t already the law!  I have been harassed by barking dogs for many years now where I live, mostly dogs that are left outside when their owners go out.  What rubs salt into the wound is that the owners themselves don&#039;t have to listen to their own dogs bark as when they&#039;re home they have the ability to quiet them!</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ms. Susan Martin, Oakland, CA, United States of America<p>Dogs just do not belong in an urban environment.  And most people who have them, shouldn&#039;t!  They think all they have to do is shove it in the back yard and feed it once a day; then it turns into a neurotic mess that barks constantly and drives everyone crazy.  Speaking for myself, if every dog on this planet dropped dead tomorrow it would suit me just fine...</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Michele Greene, Wilmington, De, United States of America<p>The City of Wilmington Delaware has a complex, burdensome procedure for reporting barking dogs.  This procedure involves signing a complaint and going to court.  In addition to the time and expense connected with this procedure, it exposes the complainant to the wrath of the dog owner.  When a noise officer is dispatched to a location they frequently come at a time when the offending dog(s) have been taken inside, and they will refuse to issue a citation based on the allegation of a constantly barking dog left unattended.  The system is inefficient and unfair as well as harmful to the health of the individual exposed to the sounds of barking dogs.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Anonymous, San Gabriel, CA, United States of America<p>I&#039;m a victim of a very inconsiderate neighbor who was told by Animal Control, a neighbor and me about their problem of leaving their German Shepherd in the backyard day and night, rain or shine. It barks loud and disturbing when gardeners work at the 3 sides of their neighbors. It also barks incessantly when any passersby walks on the street. They have 3 young kids and a small dog living inside the house. Whenever kids need to play in the backyard, this GS is chained up so not to disturb the kids. The dog cannot get socialized with anyone, not even another dog. When I ask the owner to stop this GS barking at the gardeners, she said it is ONLY barking at the gardeners. The barking noise can shoot over 100db into our bedroom and my son&#039;s study room! The male owner claims to be the Principal of a public high school. But look at how they keep and treat their dog! Something is very wrong with these kinds of owners. They should be fined with just some proof of their dog&#039;s incessant barking.</p>]]></description>

<p>However, making it an offence to leave dogs unattended is a brilliant step in the right direction because it would weed out most dogs everywhere anyway.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ms Susan Martin, Oakland, CA, United States of America<p>Too many people think that all you have to do with a dog is put it in the back yard, feed and water it.  Dogs need attention, rules and SOCIALIZING--they&#039;re pack animals who NEED to know who&#039;s in charge.  Leaving them alone all day to bark (noise pollution!) makes them neurotic and DRIVES THE NEIGHBORS CRAZY!</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Melissa Barbalaco, Tucson, AZ, United States of America<p>I have a neighbor who left his pit bull in his back yard its entire life to bark. Alone, lonely, in the terrible 100+ temps, to bark.  It finally died from old age, and now he has a new one that is doing the exact same thing. Let&#039;s put an end to people using dogs as lawn ornaments. This makes for bored, unhappy, and often violent dogs who escape their enclosures to attack and kill people&#039;s pets, service/guide dogs, and children.</p>]]></description>

He taught his dog to charge me and I have had to remove most of my garden.   The dogs have no dog house.  When I called the police, they do nothing.  He brought a rifle out to intimidate me after I asked his wife to stop the dogs.  These sociopaths have taken over and they use dogs to abuse other people.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Michal Kinasz, Ridgehavn, SA, Australia<p>As human being is left confined in one place and in particular against one&#039;s will, it is a cruelty, a punishment and leads definitely to serious distress and mental problems, same apply to dogs.<br />
Their barking often/usually does mean the call of attracting an attention, the desperate act of self defense.<br />
As developed nation we cannot pretend any longer that we do not know why dogs bark. We must at last legislate clear duties of dog owners who must ensure a proper environment to the dog.</p>]]></description>

Dogs value the companionship of the others in their &quot;pack&quot; and are sometimes distressed if they are separated from it. Typical reactions when a dog is separated from the pack are barking, howling, digging, and chewing. These activities may distress humans when they need to leave dogs alone for a period of time. However, this behavior, called separation anxiety</p>]]></description>

One of the saddest and very stressful things I&#039;ve ever seen was my neighbors&#039; chained dog jump up wagging her tail when she heard her people outside, then slowly droop when she realized no one was coming to see her. She got more attention from me than she did from her own owners. This went on for 6 years...until she died.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Miss Audrey Robb, Maryborough, Qld, Australia<p>When a dog is left alone, most are almost sure to bark.  This is a stressful situation for the dog, and for the neighbours.  In years past, the woman of the house was generally at home most of the time, so the problem was not so widesptread, and also we had a much smaller population.  How anyone can do this to their pet, or to the hapless neighbours is beyond my comprehension.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Susan Shirkey, Detroit, MI, United States of America<p>My husband &amp; I are sick &amp; tired of living near neighbors who leave their dogs outside and unattended.  We have never had success trying to solve the problem of barking dogs by talking with the owners.  The response is always the same, &quot;that&#039;s what dogs do&quot;.  Law enforcement agencies are completely ineffective in dealing with barking complaints.  We wish that laws would be changed so that offending dog owners could be punished by monetary fines and/or by removal of the dog.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Philip Sienko, Dumont, NJ, United States of America<p>Many irresponsible pet owners are also irresponsible with many, and in some cases  all, aspects of their own lives. Its no wonder why their pets are mistreated, and behave as they do, such as barking relentlessly. Its time the authorities do something not just for our sake but for the pets. This is animal neglect and cruelty.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mrs. Megan Hymers, Tucson, AZ, United States of America<p>Responsible pet owners know that dogs do not bark unless they are hurt or are warning about an intruder. Pet owners need to take responsibility for providing exercise and stimulation for their pets so they do not cause problems for other people.</p>]]></description>
