In the house behind us they have a little white terrier dog of some sort, and two or three times a day they let it out, and it yaps. For the whole time it just yaps. Behind our stable another couple do the same, both dogs yap continuously for about 30 minutes. The owners never try to stop them, and will even talk to each other whilst the pesky mutts are at it. How can they bear it?
 
That's one reason why cats are better than dogs..
Probably get a few hate comments now.. :tearsofjoy:
 
Winter time , double glazing shut .
(Dodgy looking punters at the door- Yup dogs in the garden - half truth)
Just think crime prevention .
( Hot summer's night -all windows open ..:mad::( )
 
I am a dog person and our last was a Cocker and his bark could pierce eardrums but we never let him yap away in the garden. But yes once you have picked up on a yapping dog it is lodged in your brain, they are a pain in the --- and you wonder whether the owners actually hear it.
 
The owners need one of these.....

ours yap when they first run out in the morning but shut up i less than a minute, as long as there's not a cat on the fence. then all bets are off.
 
Don't expect dogs to be silent, it's only natural that they bark, but not constantly for that length of time
 
Did a job in the communal area of a small HMO last week with 2 yappy dogs behind a door within 6 feet of where I was working; headache-inducing but thats nature's way. I'm a dog fan but couldn't own a yappy one though
 
I guess a yappy dog is like a noisy kid, the parents/owners get used to it and tune it out, or don't give a t oss - 50:50 as to which?

I’d have my ear defenders on when it comes to something like that situation - I’d rather listen to my own pointless thoughts than pointless barking!
Cat persons reply!
 
We have a cat that we procured from our communal dustbin; We have since registered and insured it. Horrible little fecker that will meow for something and hiss at me when its got it. Much prefer dogs but the missus wouldn't tolerate anything that could bite higher than your ankle.

Would love a German Shepherd if I had the space and time to look after one properly

Merry Xmas everyone!
