People who let their dogs bark constantly...
What do you do about them? I seriously don't get the disrespect of some neighbors, fill me in so I understand. The culprits are both young and old. I tend to confront them.

Some people just can't get it through their head that other people may not want to hear their dog(s) barking.
On the other hand, I hate it when a dog sees a stranger and barks - then the dog's owner screams at the dog to "SHUT UP!". I never understood that. Yes, continuous barking is bad, but I've always thought part of a dog's "job" is to warn when unusual things are happening. I actually appreciate it in my neighborhood when a neighbor's dog gives some "who's there?" barks at strangers.
Having said that, in a busy campground, you can't have a dog even doing the "who's there?" bark at strangers, as the dog ends up barking all day long.
If the dog's owner can't stay with the dog to keep it company, then don't bring the dog camping!!
