The woman, who wished to be named only as Jayne, told Yorkshire Live how her neighbour’s dog would bark “uncontrollably” when she entered her kitchen or garden. The 39-year-old from Wakefield, West Yorkshire, claims the dog would hear her walking to her own kitchen and bark out. She said her options were to either get confrontational with her neighbours or deal with the bark.
Jayne claims she put up with the intimidating bark for one year until her neighbours moved out.
She said: “My old neighbours just left their dog in the back garden and it barked constantly and they did nothing about it. I couldn’t go out in my garden because of it.
“It’s like they were deaf and would leave the back door open go out and leave the dog there, I tried to be friendly so it would get used to me.
“If it was a nice day after work I couldn’t even sit in my garden or have friends round and have a BBQ because the dogs were barking that much. They made me stay out more than I wanted.
“Luckily they moved from me so I can have now barbecues.”
Jayne claims she didn’t dare speak to them because she didn’t know…
