One of the most prevalent reasons for neighbour disputes is because of having a noisy dog, constantly barking, right across your dividing fence and having the neighbour refusing to take the dog to dog obedience training to fix the problem.
Ask me, I know. Some people just do not want to know that their dog is causing a problem.
In my case, my neighbour’s dog was a dog that fired up when he heard us open the front door of our house at 6am and then, thereafter, anybody walking on our gravel driveway set him off again. He could not see us, just hearing us was enough.
If you do not have a dog that has gone through a full obedience training course, the chances are you may well have a dog that barks uncontrollably.
Dogs bark for lots of reasons:
?To warn strangers
?To say hello
?To say P**** off
?To talk to his neighbours and the moon
?Just because he can
?Because he is bored
?Because he is excited
?Because he is lonely
?To protect his bone
A dog that is lonely, bored or stressed is most likely to become a problem barker, so the first thing you need to establish is why is the dog barking.
Stressed dogs are usually suffering from separation anxiety. You need to desensitise the dog to your leaving him alone. Very often this dog will start barking as soon as you close the door on your way out.
You need to count to 10 and then open the door and go up to the dog, talk to him calmly, pat him, maybe give him a quick tug game, and then leave the room again. Count to 10 and repeat.
You can extend the time out of the room fairly quickly but be aware that if the dog starts barking, you have left the room for too long and need to go back a few steps.
Once the dog is not barking immediately after you leave the room, I would start ping ponging the time I am away from the dog.
What I mean by this is I would leave the dog for 10 seconds, and the next time 30 seconds, then back to 10 seconds. The next maybe 2 minutes, then 5 minutes and back to 10 seconds. This would leave the dog not knowing how long you are going to be a way but starting to understand that you do always come back.
A dog that is barking because he is bored or lonely needs to have some serious exercise just before being left alone. If you have access to a swimming pool or a spot in a river, lake or beach, then a 10 minute swim is equivalent to a 10 kilometre walk.
A dog, properly obedience trained, will retrieve a ball for you. If you have a nearby field where you can throw the ball, using a “Chuckit” or a tennis racket for 10 minutes will give your pooch plenty of exercise.
If you can throw the ball up hill, this will increase the level of effort the dog has to put into the session.
A physically exhausted dog is going to go to sleep for quite some time as soon as he gets back home.
When he does eventually wake up, he must then have some interesting toys to engage his attention until the urge to have another snooze comes along.
Kongs filled with peanut butter, holy rollers with a ball or pill bottle with a marble in it inside, a tugger tied to a tree or anything else your dog finds it fun to interact with are perfect.

Part of the curriculum of most schools in the United States is physical education. This could basketball, football or tennis and also the game of table tennis. The faculty in charge will teach the basics and then the student can take it from there. Those who have talent may even tryout for the varsity team to bring glory to the school.
Those who have played this game before will surely have an advantage over inexperienced players. But with practice, a newbie can be just as good with the proper training.
Some people think that the game of table tennis is simply hitting the ball with the paddle but there is more to it than that. It involves hand to eye coordination and fast reflexes given that the ball can travel to speeds up to more than 90 miles per hour.
Part of training involves reading up on the sport. This is because the sport has rules that players have to follow. Someone who is knowledgeable will surely cream those who don’t know anything.
There is not enough time to learn everything there is to know about table tennis in PE class given that this only lasts an hour. Those who are serious should get help from someone after school like those offered in the youth center.
No one can play the game without the proper equipment. This means the student should buy a paddle. This is available in sporting goods store or online. In fact, the cheapest out there will only cost $20.
The first thing that will be taught is how to hold the paddle. There are two ways of doing this but normally, Americans use the handshake grip.
Since this is easy to learn, the instructor can now move on to other things such as how to serve, block and drive. Before hitting a few balls, an important part of training is doing some drills. This is because the game is all about technique and being consistent means fewer mistakes will happen.
When the instructor sees that the person is ready, this is the time that a mock game will be done. This could be someone else who is learning the sport or someone experienced. If no one is available, the instructor will be the one to do it.
Training with someone knowledgeable usually takes an hour and a half to two hours daily. Those who want to keep in shape can even practice at home on weekends by using an ordinary table and pushing this toward the wall. The other alternative will be to play with someone who also knows how to play the game.
As part of the training, the player should never forget to stretch, warm up and cool down. This will get the muscles ready for practice and during competition.
In a month or two, there might be a competition in school. This is where the student will see if all the training paid off.
The player should not feel bad for losing in the first match. The individual should also not gloat over the victory because there are still other players out there who are much better.
Whatever happens, this should simply be taken as a lesson so that errors that were committed can be corrected to achieve a better performance in the next match.
