Dog barking update. Last week was bliss, barely heard any barking. Thought the issue was resolved. But this week… it’s been the worst yet. I spoke to a neighbour who told me the owner’s overseas holiday is for three months and we’re not even halfway through. Their adult daughter lives in the house and is “taking care” of the dog, but is out at work all day and the dog is probably used to having someone around all the time. She leaves the dog outside when she heads off to work quite early, and it barks loudly all morning and all day until it’s let back inside when she gets home from work. Guess it’s easy to not care about your barking dog when you’re not around to hear it. Leaving another note in the hope that whatever she did last week is done again.

So tired from day after day of bark alarm. Ear plugs do nothing.
