Redditor Makes Fun Of The Neighbor's Dog Who Always Barks At Them, Neighbor Calls Them Silly For "Taunting" Her Dog
"I say things in a squeaky animal voice like “Ohhhh, who’s so vicious? Who’s a little killer? Yes, you are! You’re an apex predator! Such a savage little beastie!”

When your neighbor's dog barks all the time, it can be more bothersome than just a small irritation. A barking dog that doesn't belong to you might damage your peace of mind, keep you awake at night, or even give you headaches.
The constant barking can even make your own dogs act out because it becomes a distraction, and you might find that your own puppies feel the need to bark in return. When dogs become territorial and feel like you are encroaching on their territory, they may bark.
Your neighbor's dog may be acting territorially if you notice that it barks whenever you enter your yard or approach the neighbor's property. The OP in today's AITA story has a next-door neighbor who, according to the Redditor, has a "Yorkie/Yorkie mix of some kind."
This dog barks incessantly if the OP so much as opens the door for a delivery. The dog doesn’t often bark at the delivery person, just the OP, and as for why, the OP doesn't have a clue.
Even from inside, the dog's barks will trigger other dogs in the neighborhood and start a bark fest. So sometimes the OP makes fun of her a bit, as it makes her constant barking more tolerable.
But little did the OP know that the dog owner heard it until she let it out one morning. Keep scrolling to read the entire story in full.
