chosen.content: In order to get your neighbor's dog to quit barking, the first step you should take is to speak with your neighbor and let them know how the barking is affecting you. Make sure to be polite and friendly, and offer suggestions on how to manage the barking. Possible solutions may include training the dog, limiting the length of time the dog is outside, and making sure the neighborhood cats are not attracting the dog's attention. Additionally, you may want to contact your local law enforcement and Animal Control to seek advice on how to address the barking.

rejected.content: There are several steps you can take to try to discourage your neighbor’s dog from barking. 
  
  1. First, try to contact your neighbor directly to discuss the issue. If speaking with them does not have a favorable result, try again in a nicer tone. Be sure to stay calm and respectful in your communication. It is also important to let them know you have tried to contact them, and not to do so in anger.
  
  2. You can also try giving their dog some separation or exercise time so they are not left alone in the environment where barking occurs.
  
  3. Additionally, consider purchasing some “noise deterrents” such as bark collars or sound machine. This can be a subtle and effective way of reducing excess barking. 
  
  4. If all else fails, the police or animal control can be contacted. This option should only be taken after a few attempts at communication have failed. Be sure to take detailed notes of each interaction in order to properly document the effort made.
  
  5. Finally, if the neighbor’s dog is especially bad at barking or has a history of aggression, it may be necessary to involve local experts. This could involve a veterinarian, behavior specialists, or trainees. In some cases, it may be necessary to have the dog relocated.
