Re:  How I Got My Neighbor's Dog To Stop Barking!

I recently had a really bad situation involving my neighbor's dogs and their barking.  I work at night and sleep during the day when people usually don't pay attention to their barking dogs.

I asked my neighbors to quiet their dogs down and they agreed.  The dogs are still barking at about the same rate so I am sure that they did not take me seriously.  

After weeks of not being able to sleep, I decided to check the internet and found a lot of people that recommended "The Barking Dog CD".  

To make a long story short, I popped the CD into my CD player and the dogs stopped barking almost immediately.  As on person stated "I almost fell out of my chair when the dogs stopped barking".  I totally agree with them.  It worked like a charm.  The website is at http://www.antibarkingdevice.com  if you are interested.  

This method should also work on your own dog if you are having problems with your dog.  I certainly hope that I was helpful to you.
