I Pmed you with a link to one of the many "no bark box" type of products available. Do some research. Some shoot a focused wave of sound while others send sound out over a much broader area.
I was not sure if I could post external link on the forum

I personally after seeing the effects I consider the bark boxes animal torture and would LOVE to see them removed from the market. Because of the nature of these devices when used in close range of houses the dogs who this is being inflicted upon (there is no way to select a single dog for this correction) will hear this noise non stop even indoors in most stick built houses.
In the case of my sisters dogs it helped cause some severe temperment changes, loss of sleep (this dog was going 14 - 16 hrs), house pacing, refusal to go outside, and a general state of panic. Please do not use one of these devices. If you must contact the authorities about the barking but there is never an excuse to cause harm to a dog.

I am a strong believer that sound in that manner should NOT BE USED AS A CORRECTION for a dog. I don't care what kind of sound be it a shake/rattle can or a bark box - you are teaching your dog that sounds are something to fear(as a correction) and this can either create or make exhisting sound sensitivity problems worse.

You can always throw your dog's poop into the other dog's raceway. The drunk neighbor wont know its not hers. Last I knew, dogs don't like running in poo. LOL

Along the lines of Howard's post, what about a repellent that you could sprinkle along the fence line? I don't know anthing about these products as far as safety though...
here's a link to one:
I would have to go a few feet into their yard but anything is worth a try. I have 26 kids coming to camo the middle of this month. I would love some peace.
I am not too worried about the neighbor dogs ears but definately do not want to bother my animals with those sonic devices.
If they would exercise their dog I wouldn't be in this situation.
We have a similar problem at our house. ALL they have to do is stay out there with the dog for five minutes while he does his business and he wouldn't bark. But no, they let him outside then go back inside and let him bark and bark and bark for an hour at the crack of dawn.
We have a bike path/nature trail about 50 yards from our backyards, and there's always people on it, so the dog is always barking (which of course is self-reinforcing, as I tried to explain to them when they said "he will grow out of it")
since it seems like your neighbor is not for training her own dog. is it a chain link fence that borders the prop line? If so, you can train her dog not to get to close, with a hose or water bottle. Make sure it cant see you, then when it comes out running and barking squirt it. Hoses have great distance and its only water, over time i would think every time it got hosed it would learn to stay clear that side of the fence. i understand it will take some of you time away to do your own things but it might stop the barking

That would be a attraction for my dogs. I can't use a hose around them because they go ballistic trying to snap at and bite the water coming out of the hose. If they hear the hose they come running.
