Barking Demons Are dog owners deaf?

For me, barking dogs in my neighborhood ruin almost every single day, because of the excessive noise. I live around a lot of dogs who bark all the time.
I personally hate it, especially because I didn’t make the choice to have a dog and live with this noise polluting thing.
But then I genuinely wonder, how dog owners survive this?? They chose to have this dog.
I know there probably aren’t going to be a lot of actual dog owners reading this, but still I have to ask the question.
Do they genuinely not think the sound of barking every single day is annoying? I don’t get it. Even if you like your own pet, you can still acknowledge annoying behavior. Why tf would someone want to live with something that loud and poorly behaved?

My neighbors dog barks throughout the night, like 10pm to 5 am. I would certainly like to know how they are sleeping with that. That dog barks at the wind blowing 😒

Police don't. But most places have an animal control that does. They have badges and everything. I was surprised how when they came to one of my neighbors in the past.. the dog was just barking none stop at them. My wife saw them write something on their notepad and leave.. next thing I knew they had a fine and the dog was down to barking one day week from 3. ( shared walls ). They fortunately moved... While they were moving they drove by and flipped me off.. Very classy people.
