Nice doggy. Lovely owner.
oes your dog bark all day long – again, and again, and again – without any particular 
rhyme, reason or threat…?
Repeatedly.
comes to their dog barking incessantly, you can call Wicklow dog wardens John Byrne on 0862771695 or Noel Hayes on 0863846430. If neither of these guys answer their phone – and we did spend a week or two trying to catch them without any joy – you can leave a message for them to contact you on 040444873.

Or maybe the owner isn’t the ‘arsewipe’ that you suggest. Some of the best cared for dogs can cause barking problems unbeknownst to the the owner while they are away from home. Maybe be a decent neighbour and call round and make the owner aware of the problem before reporting to the authorities. Give the owner a chance to fix the problem before being an asshole and reporting it. Not condoning barking dogs at all but try being a decent neighbour and give the owner a heads up of the problem and a chance of fixing it first?
Where was it stated that these neighbours shouldn’t be given a chance to soothe their unhappy dog? This is about those who are aware – very aware – of their dogs barking and choose to do nothing whatsoever about it.
That’s the arsewipe we’re talking about here. But thanks a bunch for your arms-around-the-world input, Ivan.
Hello Ivan, you have a good point, unfortunately, I went to the neighbor and they abused me and rang the police for me, weeks later the dog continued to bark all the time because they had tied him up, so I shouted over to them can you please untie the dog he wants to play with the other dogs, they threatened to burn me out and they would poison my dogs, I got in touch with the police, they have it on the report, I rang and wrote to the dog warden, he said he needs a court order, eventually when the dog warden did go down he said the dogs were ok tied up to the fence as long as they have bedding and food, I have written and rang and called to the Wicklow co council and no one ever answers to me, the Lady on the reception is very nice, but no one else gets in touch, this is going on for years. the last time I shouted over to ask them to stop the dog barking please, they abuse me again, and one guy shows me his ass, so now I don’t know what to do apart from moving away from my home that took me almost 10 years to build, Shame on the dog warden and bigger Shame on the Wicklow county council. the neighbors are simply brain-dead so there’s no getting through to them.
Hello i dont know if this will get to the right person but i do need some information abiut how it works for stopping a neabour s three dog’s from barking .they have 3 jack russels they bark all day constantly .we can never go out in the garden and enjoy normal things .its making me sick !! This is realy upsetting us please help .we have ASKED before to stop but tgey continue tye same after a while .theur should be a law for people who let their dogs bark all day long and dont care of anybody else ?? Many thanks valerie
Hi Valerie,
We have the same problem at GG HQ. People who shouldn’t even be allowed to keep a goldfish have two dogs locked up pretty much 24/7, and all they do is bark at the wind. And cars. And kids. And leaves. And birds. And each other.
The number above is the one to call. Always difficult for action to be taken. Even when the people with the dogs are clearly assholes.
You should get your dog licence – and your marriage licence – the same way you get your driving licence. You should be tested first, to see if you’re actually capable.
Cheers,
Paul
