Yikes! Logan, I know it's hard. Our neighbors across the street had a Rottie that they tied out back and it barked constantly, esp. loud and snarly when anyone passed the house. I didn't know what it was tied with,a rope or chain (ugh) but I could hear it rubbing up against the tree as "Shadow" (what a coincidence) strained to get free. I'm talking about rain, snow, cold, hot weather. Only when I didn't hear him did I realize something was wrong and he got sick and had to be put down. Now they have a Finnish Spitz whose not out as often, but it does get annoying at 11p. Some people shouldn't have pets. "Dog" does not mean outside animal all the time. I am so tempted to call the Humane Society for the dog's sake. At least I can be anonomous, but you, sweetie, having made a new friend, can't do
that cause she sounds so understanding and rational! I think as long as the girls don't bark outside at night, she can't throw that in your face. After all, you are complaning about night, not day, I'd start with that!
Hmm, this is a dilemna..but we'll help you work it out!
