If you’ve ever cringed as your dog barked non-stop at the Amazon delivery guy, guests, or every little noise outside, you’re not alone.
For many dog owners, barking starts as a harmless quirk — until it spirals into a stressful daily battle: neighbor complaints, sleepless nights, even the fear of fines or losing your housing.
That’s exactly what happened to Sarah and her golden retriever, Max.
“I love him to bits,” Sarah told us. “But it got to the point where I couldn’t have people over, and I dreaded walking past my neighbors. I was terrified someone would report us.”
When a noise complaint arrived from her building management, Sarah knew she had just 30 days to solve Max’s barking — or risk eviction.
Like most owners, she tried the usual tricks: more walks, closing blinds, tasty chews, even an expensive training class. Nothing worked.
