They're just down the road from you.

Be handy if a few of those miraculously blew onto the dog run. They sheltering neighbours from your building work? Four Reynard shuffled off their mortal coil this week so cause of problem may be gone!☺
Severn Trent are using them towards Stratford where they are drawing water from, the neighbours are moving can't think what I've done.

Guess who's not been on the forum for a while :oops:
His barking has got worse over last week as well as hormones are definitely kicking in (he had an experience with his bed last week that no mother should have to witness :eek:), he's generally ok on a night though. Well, the neighbours haven't complained anyway :)
Will add training speak and quiet to his rigorous regime

Pissing on the bed? That one I can help you with (well, maybe!). Dogs lift their heads when they pee and crap, so fit a false ceiling to the bed and they'll choose to go elsewhere.

If no complaints, could your neighbour be a victim of occupational deafness??

I think @Lackey's randy young mutt may have been, ahem, pleasuring himself' rather than soiling himself! Good tip about the false ceiling, though!

The new H untaway pup is irritating neighbours as he barks quite often in night according to what I am told. pretty much silent all day. Usually barks intermittently towards nightfall and from as early as 4 am at this time of year. Understandably neighbours, 300+ meters away have Windows open in this heat. Has anyone come up with a good sound absorbing solution to cut the decibels and stop noise travelling particularly on still nights. Need to clear out some foxes which probably start him off but also looking for longer term solution.
we have working dog that barks all night.to good of a dog to let go.and we are suround by house, any way the wife came up with the idea of putting a muzzle on the dog it still barks but at much lower volume, you can only just here it. also it can still drink its water. I just need one to fit the wife and job done

Please do not leave a dog muzzled - it's cruel and dangerous. A dog needs to be able to pant with mouth wide open to maintain body temperature. In recent temperatures you are lucky you still have a dog! Just train your dog!

Think this is an elderly collie thing, they go a bit cuckoo! Ours started doing this last year and the vet said it happens alot in collie's!
