Noise in France

[Ocean Spirit]

It's never the dog's fault. Owners are to blame and should be expelled from a campsite if they can't control the barking and yapping. We have a dog (retriever) ourselves. He never barks on a campsite.

And there is middle ground.
My Dog will bark when it is startled and with the best will in the world I can't prevent that. However, its quickly bought to a halt and any bark gets our full attention to minimise the problems.
@Verity glad your neighbours moved but I feel for their new neighbours. Dogs left to bark is extremely annoying even if you are a dog owner yourself. It is unnecessary, inconsiderate and lazy.
