How long must a dog bark after 10:00PM before you can legally waterboard its owner?
I'm asking, uh, hypothetically.

Honest.

2. Do you own a megaphone? I found mine really helpful when my
neighbor, who's since moved away, had a particularly yippy dog. I stood on the easement in front of her house and "barked" for about 5 minutes. She started leaving Yippy outside petitioning entrance a sight less after that.

3. A good thought, but I'm worred about my two-year-old waking up
Maybe if I could get the megaphone to broadcast like a dog whistle..?

5. Hmm. But what if I use it to say 'please stop barking' in that dogs-only frequency?

7. Maybe you wouldn't leave your dog outside for hours? ;)
It was actually part of a campaign to drive her from the neighborhood. Her father was a convicted pedophile who came to her house in the afternoon when she was babysitting several kids. The barking was annoying, but putting a stop to it was a two pronged assault with ulterior motives.

9. I don't own a dog, thank you very much! :P
But it sounds like she's a piece of work. I'd probably just egg her house and throw pig's blood on her as she exited every morning.

8. Do like everyone else does
Throw a rock through his window with a polite message attached requesting he bring his dog in after 10pm.

11. Call the police and have her cited
Assuming your city/town has a ordinance against dog barking. Most cities in the US have this ordinance. Call the police and make sure they cite her. You may have to go to court, but after she pays $200 a few times, she will get the point.

13. Eventually they will confess
that they really COULD hear their dog barking...

but not until they also admit to masterminding 9/11.

14. Well
Well in my city we can only send a cop out to ask the owners to shut it up, but then you could contact animal control and they would have to survey the area for about a week to get proof that the dog is continuously barking and then the owners can be ticketed. Its kinda of pointless LOL Is that what you were getting at, hypothetically? LOL
