'my neighbour lets his dog bark all night long so i got my petty revenge on him'

A MAN HAS SHARED HIS 'PETTY REVENGE' ON HIS NEIGHBOUR WHO LETS HIS DOG BARK OUTSIDE ALL NIGHT - AND PEOPLE ARE PRAISING HIM FOR GIVING THE OWNER A 'TASTE OF HIS OWN

MEDICINE' 15:36, 30 May 2025 A man has been lauded for his 'petty revenge' on a neighbour who allows their dog to bark outside all night long. He detailed how the incessant

barking keeps him up at night and despite pleading with his neighbour to address the issue, the neighbour merely laughs it off. In an attempt to teach him a lesson, he decided to give his

'entitled' neighbour a taste of his own medicine, reports the Mirror. Sharing his story on Reddit, he said: "Every night from midnight to 3am his dog would bark non-stop right

outside my bedroom. Deep loud echoing barks like he was announcing the end of the world. I asked my neighbour twice to bring the dog in. Both times he brushed it off with a smirk and said

'he's just doing his job'. "Cool. Then I'll do mine." With that, he began recording the barking on his phone and blasted it at full volume through a speaker

against the wall at 6am to rouse his neighbour. He continued: "I repeated that for two mornings. No yelling. No threats. "Just his own dog giving him a taste of what I'd been

dealing with. Article continues below "On day three the dog was inside before 10pm. Hasn't barked at night since. Sometimes the best revenge is pressing play." Responding to

his post, one user saod: "I had that problem so I'd put my speaker outside on my wall and played 'We Built this City on Rock and Roll' on repeat for three hours."

Another user chimed in: "Wonderfully petty - and effective - love it!" A third user recounted: "My dad used to get up at 5am to go to work every day. Anytime the

neighbour's dog woke him up during the night, they got a knock on the door around 5.30am. Dad would just casually let them know he was off to work and their dog woke him up."

Another person shared: "When my neighbour's dog wouldn't stop barking out in their yard I took a flashlight and aimed the beam at the side of the house. "The stupid dog

chased the beam of light and jumped all over the house. They would come out and yell 'King stop jumping!' and I would start all over again when they went back in... until they

finally brought him in." One more user shared a noisy tenant story, posting: "Years ago my parents had a tenant who would play disco music at an appalling volume every morning at

2am. "We begged her to stop and she never did. I finally got fed up with her and my brother and I decided to get back at her. "We parked a very large first amp at her back door and

then I added an additional 30 decibels to the song 'Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead' from the Wizard of Oz and attached my CD player to my brother's guitar amp and then we

waited. "The next night her music went on and two minutes later, so did ours. "I thought her shoe was going to explode it was so loud. "It blasted out for about two minutes

before I heard her yelling she was turning the music off. We had to repeat it a few times, but she eventually got the message." Article continues below
