Leave it to the professionals.

What? And have them retaliate? No thank you. People get pretty irrational about their lil ''puppies.''

I'd just as soon leave that to the professionals. Animal Control does an excellent job of informing people of how intrusive excessive barking is and can even offer excellent guidance on how to prevent or reduce that sort of behavior.

Most professionals

would tell you 90 out of 100 runs they make could have been resolved by other means than them coming out.

Animal control responds to over 10,000 runs a year, and aside from dog bites and dog fighting or neglect, most of the runs they make are from scared whiney citizens.

Scared Citizens

If a person is scared they have a right to call, they shouldn't have to be threatened by a dog or anything else in that manner. Dogs are a nuisance, and people can be too.

My reply stands.

My comment on your stats: So what.

MOST professionals also have no problem doing their job, and that includes any and all runs, INCLUDING complaints of excessive barking.

That's like saying that cops shouldn't do noise complaint runs because, blah blah blah yada yada yada.

Might it be that you have an obnoxious dog that you feel you don't have to control?
