dog deterrent

Is there any bug deterrent that I can spray on my lawn that’s not harmful to my two dogs? Seems like there’s TONS of bugs back there (not many bushes or anything, it’s mostly just grass, no flowers, etc. and we’re really good about picking up the poop every day) and it makes me crazy having to swat them away every 2 seconds. Anything?

Update: These neighbors and I had a hearing with the city and the dog was declared a noisy animal. Fines will be imposed upon them if they fail to keep the dog quiet. Thank you for the comments everyone! ——————– These recordings were made on February 11, 2010. I was home during work hours this day so I decided to do something constructive and continuously record what I have been suffering for months from.

I need a dog for protection?

dog deterrent

So, i’m getting a dog. I am 17, I will be taking this dog to college. (im going to community college-ive researched pet friendly apartments) But my dad said I can get a dog at the latest Christmas, he will consider it sooner if I bring my grades up.

I know you should carry pepper spray/knife/cell for protection. But I would like a guard dog…more that looks the part though if you know what I mean? I will not train it to attack, it would end up put to sleep or something you should never train your family dogs to attack, I know its the dog itself not the breed-our family Labrador is very protective but labs are supposed to be friendly. I just want a dog that will be a deterrent/looks at least slightly intimidating. I also want an affectionate, loyal dog with short fur. I do really want a Beagle, but they arent exactly intimidating. Any breed ideas? I love Catahoula Leopard Dogs but my dad thinks they are ugly. Should I go with a Beagle even though they wont be good for protection?
haha no in alaska you can carry concealed weapons
im not in college now i do online homeschooling i have time for a puppy
ahh i want a mutt bad but its hard to get one where i live. its about 0 which is less than a purebred but they have to do a homecheck, interview, blah blah.
i plan on walking the dog twice a day and just letting it out to run and go on a hike on weekends. or a long trail.

Do the ultrasonic pest control devices work?

These devices supposedly drive away pests (ants, spiders, mice, rats) with an ultrasonic noise that humans cannot hear. Also, will it bother a dog?

Help with Barking Neighbors dog ?

dog silencer

I hate to leave a long question here but a bit of back story:

Some new neighbors recently moved in next door, we are in a gated community with single family homes. I have a small HOA and live in Souther California (I know laws vary by region)

Since the neighbors moved in the neighbors dogs has barked insistently every second of the day (and night) that I step outside my own home. Get in my car or go into my garage.
The dog will bark for hours at times. Even nipping at anyone who gets near the fence.

I ,my neighbor (to the other side) and my parents have spoken to the neighbor (whos elderly mother owns the dog) who look at us almost blankly when we explain to them that their dog barks all day.

I have called the humane society who wants my address, I dont really want to cause neighborhood problems frankly but am at my wits end with this dog. We now have had to add blocks to our fence line (just cost me 100 bucks this morning) because now the dog is digging under my fence.

The dog is constantly 24/7 tied to a rose bush on my side of the fence, he today had no food and no water. I took a photo of it just for "proof" in case something comes up, as well as a couple photos of the dog literally jumping fence height trying to bite me.

Heres my question, What can I do??

I was looking up some info on silencers. Anyone know a Good one that works, or anyone have any ideas of what I can do?
I fear though what I truly have on my hands is in-humane abuse (no food and water and one ignored vicious dog)

Can I give a report without leaving my address?

Another question Can I somehow be sued for adding a silencer to the side of my home to quiet neighborhood dogs?

ultrasonic dog repeller

…Gard and Bell & Howell models.
The deer are lovely animals but they are no respecters of property. They eat everything in sight including grass, flowers and vegetables. While we don’t want to harm them, we sure would like to drive them away. A friend of ours told us that there are various ultrasonic animal repellers but, while they are sometimes effective against dogs and cats, they probably don’t work with deer.
