Dogs bark all night long....

Postby mark_ezov » Tue May 06, 2003 2:42 am

There are two dogs in a fenced in lot down the block. They bark like crazy all night long. They wake me up and stress me out like mad so I am unable to fall asleep again.

I spoke with the owner and he is not interested in doing anything about it.

I have called the police and they don't care. I have called the ASPCA, they came out to take a look and decided that and they don't care.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

you have to call The Department of Environmental Protection for complaints about many kinds of noise, including noise from:

barking dogs

find the # on nyc.gov
most Landlords suck it.

I'd buy a good set of earplugs, they can work wonders.

Try the new NYC Hotline # - 311 -- there's a Quality of Life Hotline #. However, I think it involves the police and if they are disinterested I don't know if it will help. I myself have been a victim of noise (not dogs barking) and I know what it's like to live with it -- and most people do not understand unless they have been exposed to unwanted noise for a period of time how absolutely awful it is!!!
