On September 17, an office worker left his friend’s dog at home alone in a residential area in Meishan, and the dog barked day and night, which attracted many owners in the residential area to complain to the property management.
According to media reports, such a situation is not uncommon in many cities in Sichuan. In the past few days, a reporter from Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News visited and found that nowadays, there are more and more dog lovers, including many young office workers. However, many office workers have limited time and energy. After going to work, they either keep their dogs at home alone, or give them away for a while, or ask someone to look after them. The difficulty of raising a dog is far beyond their original beautiful imagination.
Should office workers have dogs? How to keep a dog to avoid "house dogs disturbing neighbors" after work? Many pet shop owners and dog owners suggest that if you don’t have enough affection, adequate preparation and enough patience and time for dogs, don’t keep dogs on impulse … …
annoyed
Nobody barks at home, disturbing people day and night.
Owner’s complaint: property management
At about ten o’clock in the morning of September 17th, a dog barked again in a residential area of Dongpo Avenue in Meishan City, Sichuan Province. "This dog has been barking for several days." Yang Jun, a citizen of Meishan, opened the window, and the barking of dogs came from the next unit, which made Yang Jun angry.
Yang Jun is in business, and he can’t go home until very late every day these days because he is with customers. According to his previous schedule, he usually wakes up naturally until noon the next day, but these days, because the dogs in the community bark day and night, he can’t rest at all.
"Property management." Yang Jun opened WeChat and complained in the community owners.
"Yes, the dog barks with anxiety." As soon as Yang Jun spoke, the owners all spoke out in the group. "If you don’t have time, don’t keep a dog. Howling all day will affect your rest."
After the property received the complaint, it came back in less than an hour: it was the dog of the owner’s friend, and it was temporarily fed for two days, and it was arrested later.
"I know that the barking of the dog has caused great trouble to the neighbors. I am really sorry." On the evening of 17th, the reporter contacted the owner and talked about the dog sent by this friend. He was a little helpless. "My friend is on a business trip for a few days, and we have to go to work again, so we have to keep his dog in a cage."
perplex
Many office workers who raise dogs make complaints.
How to keep a dog and go to work at the same time?
In the past few days, Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News has randomly visited more than 20 residential quarters in 13 cities and states in Sichuan Province, including Chengdu, Meishan, Ya ‘an, Leshan, Mianyang and Deyang. At least 50 owners said that in their own residential quarters, there have been disturbing phenomena such as the owner was not at home and the dog barked, which caused many complaints. Among them, about 70% of the dog owners are office workers. When the owner goes to work, the dog will "fly himself" at home.
This situation is an annoyance to owners who don’t have dogs. For many dog owners, it is actually a problem.
Li Qiang, who is engaged in the computer industry, once had a husky. Every time he went out to work, this husky would be called for ten minutes before he would stop. Li Qiang used to keep the dog at home. After the sofa and mattress at home were bitten by the dog, he kept the dog in the bathroom. Not only that, sometimes this husky runs downstairs to chase the puppy, glared at the old man and urinated everywhere. To this end, Li Qiang received many complaints from its neighbors.
Tong Tong, who works in a cultural company, keeps two puppies at home. Because the working time and place are relatively free, she often takes the dogs with her when she goes out. Occasionally, when dogs can’t be brought, Tong Tong will put them in the kennel. "We have trained dogs to go to the toilet since childhood, let them get used to life in cages, and there may be playmates, so dogs rarely bark."
Hu Ying, a pet owner in Meishan City, said that many young people kill two birds with one stone by sending their dogs to have a beauty treatment before going to work and picking them up after work.
doubt
If you can’t raise it well, why should you raise it again?
"Have a companion when you are lonely."
Before opening a pet shop, Hu Ying was also a working dog owner. Because of her love, she opened a pet shop. Nowadays, many of her clients are young office workers, among whom about 80% are women, and many of them are single.
Hu Ying said that among office workers who have dogs, there are many impulsive people. Of course, more reasons are because dogs are spiritual, intelligent and loyal. Nowadays, many office workers are under great pressure, and having a dog has a sense of dependence and security, which is a good way for people with loneliness to relax.
Wang Hong, who works in Meishan, is very handsome on the surface, but he doesn’t have many good friends in Meishan, so he bought a dog and brought it back to his family to keep him company.
"Sometimes I know that I can’t take care of dogs, but I’m really lonely." Wang Hong said, but he goes to work during the day, and the dog is alone at home, and it is also lonely.
Solve the situation
It is private to have a dog.
But how to break the "house dog disturbing neighbors"?
The master trains the pulse to increase the sense of security and let it learn to wait.
Having kept a dog for more than 10 years, Tong Tong has learned a lot about keeping a dog. She said that dogs love to bark, except for the breed of dogs, the limited space and the proximity of strangers. Another important reason is that dogs like to keep company with others and be separated from their owners for a long time, which will make them feel abandoned and left out.
Hu Ying also agrees with this statement. She said that barking of dogs mostly occurs in the early stage of raising dogs. If the owner does not train his behavior habits, the dogs will feel insecure because of anxiety and other reasons.
Shen Qunhui, who has run a pet shop in Meishan City for many years, said that it is best to increase the dog’s sense of security through training and let the dog learn to wait. For example, pretending to go out, the dog barks at home and scolds it. When it spends time alone and quietly, it needs to be rewarded. It can start for a minute or two, and then slowly increase the time, and so on.
"The most important thing is to let the dog know clearly through training that the owner has only left temporarily and will come back later." Shen Qunhui said that in addition, office workers must take their dogs to play after work, so that the dogs can be satisfied physically and mentally, and the chances of howling will be reduced.
Professional advice
The quality of a dog reflects the quality of its owner.
Don’t have the patience and time to get a dog on impulse.
At the beginning of raising a dog, Li Qiang naively thought that raising a dog was very simple, as long as he had food and a place to live, but after raising it, he found that it was not as easy as he thought. After raising it for more than a year, the husky in Li Qiang was sent to his hometown in the countryside.
Ren Yuan, who works in a pharmacy in Chengdu, once imagined that when she bought an Alaskan dog last year, people around her would look envious when she walked the dog after work, but in less than three months, Ren Yuan sent the dog away.
"During the day, it curled up in a cage, and it was painful. When I was tired after work, it was even more difficult to think about walking it."
"You think you have the energy to keep a dog, but the practical difficulties will far exceed your expectations. If you have no real feelings, patience and time for dogs, office workers should not keep dogs on impulse. " This is the common view of Li Qiang, Hu Ying and Shen Qunhui.
Shen Qunhui said that in a sense, the quality of a dog is the quality of its owner. Dog owners should be responsible for their dogs, and it is most basic not to let dogs disturb their neighbors.
Lawyer’s statement
If a dog owner causes mental damage to his neighbor,
You can claim compensation
Wang Yingzhan, a lawyer of Beijing Lanpeng (Chengdu) Law Firm, believes that dog owners should keep dogs in accordance with the law and in a civilized manner, and must not harm the legitimate rights and interests of others. Dog owners and neighbors are neighbors, because the disputes between them are handled in line with the principle of facilitating production and life. Dog owners should try their best to stop barking when keeping dogs in their homes. If the barking does not affect the normal life and rest of their neighbors in time, dog owners should take active measures to put the pet dog up for adoption to others as soon as possible. If it causes serious mental damage to neighbors, neighbors can demand compensation for mental damage in addition to asking dog owners to stop barking.
Letting pet noise continue to disturb people has serious consequences
May be detained by public security
Lawyer Wang Xinnian, director of Sichuan Xinnian Law Firm, said that the pet noise that keeps disturbing people is not only a civil tort, but actually an administrative violation. The new law on public security administration punishment has included this kind of pet noise nuisance into the new public security violation. Under this circumstance, the public security organ can give a warning to the breeder or manager of this related pet according to the owner’s complaint or report, and order him to correct it in time. If the public security organ warns them not to change, they can be fined. If the pet keeper or manager lets the pet noise disturb the people and causes serious consequences, they can be detained for public security. Therefore, if pet owners or managers infringe upon the interests of others when exercising their rights, they may not only be subject to civil tort claims, but also face administrative violations.
