My guess is the dog starts to bark once the owner has left for work. It's anxiety. Prozac can help that (for the dog)
I can't believe gog owners renters contract doesn't have some sort of "keep the peace" clause. Does your building have by-laws on paper? Homeowner rules that everyone has to abide by? I'm betting there's something about peaceful enjoyment in those documents. You would have received a copy of these documents when you purchased the unit and can probably get a copy from building management or the homeowners committee.
Try that.
Wear earplugs in the meantime
Already got some solid ear plugs.. Spoke to the landlord of the property today.
Good and bad news...
Bad news.. He can't do anything about it, other than talk to him.. He cannot evict him!
Good news.. His contract is only for 6 months and the Landlord has assured me, he will NOT be extending the contract due to the trouble this tenant is causing me, and another neighbour who is elderly and very ill..
This moron is 2 months already into his tenancy, so another 4 months of putting up with this CRAP.
His dog is so damn loud.. These 4 weeks will be stressful as hell, as this dog barks, howls non stop 4 or 5 hours...
The local authority has also been informed of this.. The elderly neighbours who have cancer have also lodged a complaint with local authority and complained to the Landlord.. Two complaints are better than one!
What is frustrating is.. I could have this dude packing his bags, and leaving in days, if I really wanted to... But I have to do everything above board I suppose lol
I'm getting the feeling most people on here, are opting to have the dog assassinated lol
