The News
First, the bad news... the dogs' constant barking is driving me nuts.
The good news... it's not our dogs making all the noise!!
As of yesterday, we have dogs on either side of us, and behind us. And I'm pretty sure (but not positive) that there are dogs living behind both of our neighbors. I'm not sure what the grand total is, but I think the grand total (if you include Mike and Snort) might be as many as 10 or 12 dogs living in the back yards of these 6 houses. And they can't see each other because of the privacy fences. And that makes them... annoyed.
Since about 9 o'clock this morning, dogs have been barking off and on. Mostly on. But not our dogs. They're sitting here in the living room, looking up at me with these sad eyes, as if to say "Make the noise stop! We're trying to nap here!"
We've had complaints about our dogs from time to time, and Heaven knows they're not perfect. But the electric fence is working, chicken wire covers the weak spots in the fence, and our dogs are being the well-behaved ones for once. Woohoo!!!
