[QUOTE="Unregistered, post: 2583922"] Advance warning – long post. I know from personal experience how barking dogs can ruin the quality of a person's life. In my case the dogs are generally quiet at night, so I haven't gone for the "nuclear" option. That's not to say I haven't thought about it (that's how I found this site) - and reading some of the stories here it's obvious that some of you have it far worse than me. It is sad that so many are driven to consider taking action that normally they would never think of doing. My advice is to remember that even though offing the offending dog may appear to be the only way to get your life back, you could be landing yourself in an even worse situation. Many cops are dumb, but not all – and if poisoning is suspected even the dumbest Plod will work out that it’s likely to be one of the neighbours within earshot of the dog. If you get caught that could mean jail – and even if you get away with a fine or community service, you’ll have a criminal record. The papers love this sort of story and you will be presented as the villain, however much the dog was tormenting you. The abuse and threats on these pages show that there are people who will not even try to see it from your side, and while most of them are undoubtedly only brave behind a keyboard, it only takes one. Basically you may well be hounded (bad pun intended) out of your home. If you really have to do it, be VERY careful. Here are some dos and don’ts (some have been mentioned already, but there’s no harm in reinforcing them): NEVER act in anger. If you suddenly decide “right, that’s it” and go storming round with a bottle of antifreeze or whatever, you will be caught. Don’t do it after alcohol or drugs – you will almost certainly slip up. If you have complained to the neighbour, police or authorities, forget it. You’ll need to leave it at least 5 years. That includes shouting at the dog to STFU. Someone will have heard you, either the owner or another neighbour who will happily pass this on to the police if they are suspected. If the geography of where you live would point to you as the only suspect, forget it. In other words, if you are the only neighbour likely to benefit from shutting the dog up, the finger will be pointed at you. Buy all materials from way out of town (minimum 50 miles) in a place where you won’t be remembered, such as a large store where the checkout staff see so many people that they pay little attention to who they are serving. PAY CASH only. Dispose of all packaging and excess materials before doing the deed. Again, take a long trip to do this. Use gloves (fingerprints). If at first you don’t succeed, WAIT. It could be that the owner found your little present before the dog. If you’ve used an obvious poison the intent is clear, and they may install cameras or keep vigil. If you do succeed and get away with it, NEVER tell anyone. Not your partner, best friend, or the bloke you get chatting to in a bar 1000 miles from home. This is vital. I have effectively ruled myself out of dealing with the annoying dog in my road, if it gets worse and starts yapping at night, as I have yelled at it several times (I know people have heard) and I complained to the owner of another dog last year. Why have I bothered to write all this? Simple – I don’t want to see yet another person’s life ruined by the selfishness of an inconsiderate dog owner and inadequate laws. Killing a dog is not a nice thing to do but sadly it may be the only way out for someone who’s reluctant to get behind the wheel of a car as they have had no proper sleep in months. So if you do have to do this and can see no other way out – BE CAREFUL. [/QUOTE]
