Ok, maybe not my proudest moment

After weeks of listening to that yapping machine of a neighbors dog, barking incessantly from 8am until after 7 pm almost every f&&king day, I lost it. Not in some major going nuclear.
I went to my bedroom window which looks out into our back yard, which is abutted by theirs, and yelled "Would you PLEASE quiet your DOG!"
Suddenly, blessed silence ensues.
If I have to do this every damned day, I will. I have had enough stress headaches that have blossomed into migraines from this constant nuisance.

Unfortunately the calling of the dog isn't working anymore.

Owner expects us to come around and tell him when the dog is barking...what? is he deaf? I'm not into getting dressed and walking next door for an unpleasant confrontation!
I yell at the dog but it's only good for ten minutes and then he starts in again. I'm starting to consider saltshot and that's a horrible thought.
