I think it is rude, anti-social and cruel to keep a dog where it barks non-stop at the expense of the peace and quiet of all the neighbors. What ever happened to the individuals right to have an enjoyable atmosphere at home. There needs to be stronger legislation...not less!

I agree whole-heartedly about the lack of laws concerning the ever-present barking of dogs within a neighborhood. The area in which I live(Parsons Heights) has several dogs which bark constantly over nothing. My so-called neighbors who own these animals seldom interact with them, and their animals bark at any sound, or movement that takes place around them. It's a sad statement to think that people would own pets that they really do not appreciate, nor take care of.
