Garden rules to avoid ‘sparking conflict with neighbours’ – ‘can become a legal matter’

Don’t leave your dog unattended in the garden

Leaving a dog alone in the garden can lead to unwanted behaviours and excessive barking. 

According to PriceYourJob.co.uk, persistent barking is considered as an offence, potentially leading to a council complaint and a Noise Abatement Notice. 

If you’re a pet parent, do not leave your dog unattended outside.

Harry advised: “If your neighbour’s dog is constantly barking, the first point of action should always be trying to talk to them. 

“If this doesn’t work, keep a diary of timings, and report the noise to the local council who can act.”
