The one major exception is the neighbour’s dog, goddammit I hate her owner, the dog keeps barking and howling because she’s bloody bored, can’t anyone take her to a walk?

We have such a neighbor too. She is also also an alcoholic (and so is her adult son, btw). Which means that she will shout at any hour of the day or the night and will walk her dog likewise at any hour, it is one of those angry pocket dog that constantly barks.

It’s pitiful to watch and it’s a real pain to deal with them too (not mentioning they’re also very… abusive). They’ve become sort of legendary in the neighborhood… as well as with the local police. Real sad.
