Topic: finally figured out how to make the neighbors yorkies quit yapping at me

[bucky katt]

i throw wonder bread with a buttload of peanut butter on it then roilled into a ball. the little bastards stop yapping for a good 15 minutes after that, since their owners dont seem to be interested in stopping the incessant daily yapping and i;m not going to call the cops because of barking dustmops

[syth82]

I hear transvestite street performers can take care of that, too.... Maybe just akitas though. YMMV

Funny how some dog owners have no clue the POS bark all the time.
But I also used to have a neighbor who's cat would $hit on my porch and he wouldnt do anything about it.

Keep it up, they will soon be porkies...

How far away is the dog?  Put pennies in a two liter container or a pop can and shake it (you have to be close for this to be effective) or get a super soaker squirt gun.  Ooh, I know, get out the garden hose.

Water cannon.....

Awww, come on, you know I'm just kiddin'. 

[syth82]

Feed the dog fresh ground beef?

[mark]

probably keep 'em quiet for more than 15 minutes too.

might be better with some sauce though.

Couple of hours if you put a sleeping tablet in it......

Watch a fish called wanda for some good ideas on how to get rid of yorkies.

Not that I'm taking his side but what did you want him to do about it?  Just catch the cat with a paintball gun a few times.

is that a cooked pit bull or in fact an amstaff?

[Retro Rocket]

Bucky, i recon that if you kick them in the arse hard enough  not only will you stop their barking but you will end up with a nice pair of fluffy slippers.....

How about keep the #$%*ing cat inside?  In most places it's not legal to let your pets roam the neighborhood freely.

i dont really want to hurt the little bastards, not their fault their owner is a stupid git that leaves them out most of the afternoon to bark at their hugely fat, foul tempered, tattooed neighbor.

Ditto!!!!!!!   Didnt make it too long anyway.  My dogs got good at catching cats.  Thats my story anyway.

[jamesb]

throw firecrackers at it you need the the small pack that has about 20 of them in it. you'd be surprised how quick the dog will shut up.

[cb650]

That only works for a little while.  Been doing that to the stupid chiwawa's (5 of them) by me.  Gets the owners attention though.

As hilarious as most of these suggestions are(I particularly like the slippers one), I have heard of someone who took matters into his own hands and is facing animal cruelty charges.  I heard it over at The Wooden Boat forum.  Every time the subject comes up, the thread gets deleted after a day or 2, so I don't have all the details.  But it seems that this guy(a forum member there. And go figure. He isn't liked much there anymore) couldn't take the barking anymore and HUNG the dog.

You have tattoos?

[Frankenkit]

wow... well... we're all joking.  actually killing someone's pet is pretty awful.

Nuff said.

[bucky katt]

one of the very few things that will cause mne to bring voilence to someone that hasnt touched me, is cruelty to animals. i spent some time as a guest of hillsborough country floirda at their falkenburg road "hotel" many many moons ago after catching someone trying to drown a bag of kittens. my folks ended up with 2 of them and co-workers of mine got the other 7

[bucky katt]

i tried a set of truck airhorns poweered by my 33 gallon compressor at 150 psi. all THAT did was make the dogs crap all over his patio and sundeck........which while funny as hell watching his reaction, actually made the little bastards bark even more. dont want to hurt them anyways, but it appears Hamish did. we were out for a walk this morning when one of the dogs came running around the corner of my fence and charged him. the dog when yelping home with a bloody ear and nose, i had to get the doggy hair out of hamishs' claws and mouth. neighbor started to whine at me about my "vicious" cat when i mentioned that the cat and i were in our yard and the CAT was on a leash, in a neighborhood where there is a leash law and didnt he think he ought to shut the #$%* up and bring his dogs in during the day?

Really?  I've never heard of anywhere having regulations against letting your cat out.
