What Can I Do About a Dog That is Constantly Barking?

It is the nature of a dog to protect his "home" by barking to ward off strangers, however repetative barking is not only unecessary, but annoying to those who live within earshot. If you are being disturbed by excessive dog barking, call the police department at the Non-Emergency Number listed above and an officer will respond to the home of the barking dog to speak to it's owners. If the problem is continual, or if you feel that it has become more of a "neighbor dispute" than just an isolated incident, you should contact the Prince Georges County Office of Mediation at (301) 883-6170, to see if they can help.
