Not enough information, tbh. Is your dog barking during regular day hours, when noise is expected? Then yeah, your neighbours are assholes (unless he's barking non-stop all day, then maybe look into that). Is he barking during the late evening/night when people want/need to sleep? Then you need to do something about that.

A neighbor with an incessantly barking dog is an asshole, too. Sounds like you live in an asshole neighborhood and that suits you well. Train your damn dog and then move to a non-asshole neighborhood, if they'll have you!

I agree your life suck and your neighbors could be more comprehensive. However, pet owners frequently tend to underestimate their pet's sonor level, because they are used to it. Maybe your dog barks a little louder than you perceive it.

I live in an apartment and when I first moved in my dog would bark when I was gone. I bought a vibrating bark collar (not a shock collar), and it worked! You can't have a barking dog in apartments

First go to your doctor and get the paperwork necessary to get your animal certified as a therapy animal then your landlord can't legally Force you or the dog out ;secondly make sure your dog isn't barking incessantly when you're not around and third start putting in formal complaints about your neighbor's kids.

if he's barking all day every day he's not that sweet. do something about it. you're an asshole too

You both suck. Train your dog.

Find new sources of happiness that don't bark.

I was in a very similar situation. you should buy a citronella dog bark collar. it works very well, but it does take between 1 to 2 weeks for the dog to stop barking.

I once had a neighbor with a dog that would bark like crazy anytime I was around. I just taken a class on how to use non-confrontational methods to resolve difficult issues and so I decided to try it out on this problem. When I went and talked to him about the dog using all of the skills that I learned in class but not being self-righteous or condescending in any way he got very defensive. Of course it's expected that people get defensive when they're being criticized or told that they have a problem. I think that's super common and expected and it's why we have a hard time dealing with conflicts like this one that you're talking about. He got pretty mad at me and told me that the dog only barks when I'm around and that I was just a renter and so I didn't have any rights. He also told me that if I just stayed on the opposite side of my yard then his dog wouldn't bark at me. Pretty much all of his suggestions were entirely unreasonable. His wife was there also and I think she was able to see how much of an effort I was making to negotiate the situation and so she was on my side in spirit. He ended up getting rid of a dog which was not what I suggested. I guess the dog actually belongs to one of his kids but they couldn't take it because they lived in an apartment or something. The sucky thing is that we had an okay relationship before that but after this our relationship was never the same and I think he ended up dying of a brain tumor like a year later. That was a real shame. Anyway the point is you probably don't realize how annoying your dog is and they might not realize how annoying theirs are but that doesn't mean your dogs are not worse. It's really hard for people to self analyze. I thought I was doing a great job trying to negotiate the issue with my neighbor but obviously myself analysis was flawed because I still messed up the relationship. I got along with the wife always but the husband just didn't like me anymore.
