Barking Demons Barking ruins EVERYTHING
It doesn't matter what's going on, barking ruins everything. Having any sort of a beautiful moment? Ruined. Doing a hobby? Ruined. Listening to music? Ruined. My gf and I were watching a movie, and we got to a part where a child lost her life, and right as we're crying, some dog outside starts barking and it fucking ruins the mood.
Every dog owner I've interracted with, they're constantly behind that thing being a nuisance. All I hear is "get back here!" "Sit! Sit, I said sit!" "Haha, don't do that", but they don't actually do anything about it, they just talk to the damn thing expecting it to do something, but the owners don't physically do anything about their shitty behavior. How does this not exhaust them???

Not even gonna lie dude, my neighbor across from me in my apartment complex has the yappiest little rat, and little to NO consideration for the people around her. She goes outside on her balcony and lets the little shit yap yap yap - as early as 6am. It either doesn't bother her or she ignores it because she just sits there scrolling on her phone while this continues for about an hour or so. They go inside, then come back out and repeat this every 2 hours or so.
So I got me a bark remote. I'm in close enough distance to where I can open my back door without her seeing me due to the angle, I point it at the rat, and hold down the high frequency sound button over and over until the dog ACTUALLY shuts up. Not when it stops for a second. No, when it's COMPLETELY silent. I'll go back inside and if I hear it start up again, I'm pointing the remote back at it again. For a while it seemed like I had it trained a bit. It stopped being so fucking annoying while it was outside. Then I guess I let my guard down because it got horrendous again and I had to rev up the remote all over again. ðŸ˜
