I live near a family who let their two dogs bark all night long. They are two German Shepherds that do NOT stop barking for anything! I am starting to get really upset about being woken up at all hours of the night. The man lives on Teresa lane, next door to an empty home. So all of us around him get to hear the dogs bark, and bark and bark. Its almost 1 am right now, and the dogs are barking as I type this. I dont know what to do? Ive called the police. Ive contacted the neighbor disbute line, with no return call. Ive called the pound with no return call there either. WHAT CAN I DO. I dont trust where he lives. the house next to him has known gang members living there, and on the other side, next to the empty house has not so nice people there either. So, I as a small woman, am not going to go knocking on his door. I have two kids to think of, and cant have anyone causing trouble with me because I would like some sleep. I dont know, maybe they are a nice family, and just dont think the dogs bark as much as they do? But I will not take the chance of going over there and letting him know I want his dogs gone.

Any tips, hints, suggestions??

HELP, I am so tired!!!

Keep calling the police and keep calling Neighborhood Services. You deserve some help on this, you just might have to demand it. Don't give up, there is a noise ordinance in Oakley that addresses dogs. If I remember right, it stated the owner could get a $100 fine if they let their dogs bark for over 30 minutes. Keep calling, put the OPD on your speed dial and call every night if you have to!

Good luck, let us know how everything went.
