Pete.the.dog Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Hi, my dogs about 14 months old - had him for about 6. He is very quiet usually, doesn't bark at strangers and rarely will bark at a dog when they are playing but when my neighbours dog is outside, and runs along the fence, pete will run along as well and bark at the dog - the other dog doesn't bark back. I really wish I could get him to stop cause I don't want to annoy the neighbours. Any suggestions would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PandaGirl Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I've recently solved this issue myself. We bought a HUGE roll of black weedmat at Bunnings and ran that along the fence. Now that they can't see the dogs nextdoor they don't care about them even when the neighbours dogs are bouncing off the fence and barking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete can only see their feet though in a small gap under the fence, so it's not like he has a full view by any means, was it the same sort of situation? He doesn't back much but its just a nuisance and unfair on the neighbours with the quiet dog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PandaGirl Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Ours was about 10 metres of chain mesh, but really the concept is the same. Block his vision of other dogs and he'll hopefully forget they're there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PandaGirl Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 There was a tiny bit in our fence that we couldn't quite cover with the weedmat, a couple of days of putting pepper there soon stopped any nosy dogs causing trouble! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
