Noisy Dog

[Colibri]

Waymond, I can sympathize with your situation. Nearly 25 years ago, when I first moved to GTO, I lived in a beautiful little house at the end of a narrow valley in the centro. The dogs barking drove me crazy! One who was in an enclosed courtyard of some kind would bark for hours AT HIS OWN ECHO! I got earplugs. Later on, when I was looking for land to buy and build a house, I thought I'd found the perfect place, but there was some noise from a ROCK CRUSHING plant for the mines nearby. I thought, "OK, I can handle it during the day". Then, I went down to the bus-stop near the plant and asked the miners qued up there the hours of operation. "24 hours", they said. I didn't buy there. That's why I caution newcomers to check out where they're thinking of staying, renting long-term or buying/building to go there at ALL HOURS of the day and days of the week to check it out, try to find a short-term stay place in the neighborhood first, too. You may find a nice house during the day only to discover that during the night there are noisy dogs, or that there's a disco or other noisy feature that you would have never noticed during the day (Shuttered and without even a sign during the day!) OR, you may be somewhere on a Sunday, and not know that your possible choice is next to a clanging body shop open on other days. Sorry I don't have any suggestions for what you may do in your present situation, but I hope you can consider it a learning experience.
