Talk to the neighbors
I lived with dogs my entire life, at one point having FIVE at once. We have only one dog now and I refuse to allow my dog to be a pain to the neighborhood. My dog does his business in his own yard and stays in his yard or he goes inside. Barking at people while outside is not allowed at all and it gets stopped immediately, only barking to protect his family is allowed (it is a different mindset for the dog and is easy for them to tell the difference). It is 100% the owners responsibility to teach the dog to respect others and know its boundaries. I would like to know if someone had an issue with my dog so that I could correct it. It is hard enough find good neighbors let alone keep them.
