Barking Dogs

  • Barking is a normal sound a dog uses to communicate
  • Excessive barking is different
  • Excessive barking is considered a nuisance when it is constant and continues over a prolonged period of time
  • Excessive barking, particularly at night can become a neighbourhood nuisance.

Dogs do not bark without a reason. It can occur when the dog:

Is excited or boredHas separation anxietyFeels threatenedIs being protective.

In most cases, having a conversation with your neighbour will nip it in the bud, but if you aren’t comfortable chatting with them you can report it for an investigation to the Rangers.

Nuisance barking should be dealt with in the early stages. Prolonged barking can become habitual and is difficult and time-consuming to correct.

Information on how to handle nuisance barking is available on the RSPCA website.

Contact Shire Rangers if you are experiencing problems with nuisance barking.
