I had a really crappy day at work today (or should i say year) and tomorrow promises to be even worse
to top it off i had a class tonight for work (yuck - nicest day of the year and I'm stuck inside with people I'm not getting along with), which I made sure to tell my brother about and asked if he could watch the dogs. I got home tonight, and he stuck a note on my door. A very nasty note from "an annonomys neighbor" about bailey barking and next time they would call the dog warden. I don't know who to be more mad at, Bailey for barking, my brother for saying he'll be home to watch them, or one of my neighbors for being a chicken/ass. I don't see what a warden would do, technically, there's no noise ordinance until 9pm.... and I genuinely am sorry, but still.
I've never had these problems before
My brother was as pissed about the note as I was, and he said my dogs were perfectly quiet when he came home and saw the note taped to the door. So, whatever.
Okay.... So..... I've been doing a TON of yard work outside today. Outside all day.... Ran into my one next door neighbor, he commented on how well behaved Bailey is (she was off leash keeping close while I work) which helped me bridge into asking about the note. He was genuinely surprised about the note, which I figured it wasn't him. He lets his dog roam the neighborhood so odds of him calling the warden are pretty slim. :rofl1: he said IF he hears my dogs bark it's only for a little bit, and he doesn't have a problem with them at all, they're very well behaved, etc (as he's petting bailey
lol)
About 10mins later he comes back over with his son who's about my age. His son tells me that day he heard BOTH dogs barking A LOT, it wasn't really a nuisance just more of a "hey, that's weird" so he looked and saw the other neighbor (the one with the pugs)in my backyard, on my back deck, looking in my house
OF COURSE MY DOGS ARE GOING TO BARK IF YOU'RE IN MY YARD, LOOKING IN MY HOUSE!! WTF!!!! He said at that point the dogs were barking a lot, but he apologized for not saying something to him for being in my yard. We also laughed about the warden threat
I've been waiting patiently for them to come home so I can ask them why they were on my back deck looking in my house. I am getting ready to leave, and they are not home yet. My brother just came home and I told him, and he's SERIOUSLY TICKED. He plans on confronting them and telling them to stay off of our property.
The landlord sent two men to work on a few things around the house. They've been in and out of my house, using hammers, power tools, etc.... and leaving my back door wide open. Both have remarked how well behaved and quiet they both are. Which makes me feel better.... But man I'm ticked at the other neighbor. And upset... I just can't be home 24/7, you know?
