If I were a chi, or any dog left outside 24/7 I would bark all day and night too! Hasn't anyone reported them being outside 24/7? Chis don't belong outside for that long. Has anyone checked on them to make sure that they are being fed and watered well and have shelter from the heat??
I had a neighbor that had a small terrier mix. He was adorable, and very friendly, they also had two other large dogs. When the wife was at work, the hubby would leave the little one out there all day, and with no shelter. We had a rain and ice storm and that stupid man still didn't bring in the dog. Poor thing was out there for an hour and I couldn't take it any longer I walked over there and called to the owner over the fence and said ''you forgot to bring your dog in, he is shivering cold'' He complained that the dog wouldn't come to him. Can't say I blamed the dog, I never liked him either. So I walked around, called the dog who came to me and handed him over to the idiot. Next day, sure enough with over a foot of snow still coming down, he left the dog out there again. So I got pissed and called A/C. This guy was doing this for months, before I said anything to him or A/C. They came around and the stupid laws here say that as long as a dog has shelter and food and water they can say outside no matter what the size of the dog or the weather. They bought the dog a small plastic dog house, which he never went into, and which would get buried in the snow, along with his frozen water. So one day, I talked to the wife and asked her if she wanted to rehome him. She said they were moving and she would be home during the day, so there wasn't a problem. That poor dog already had lost an eye because of all the junk they had in the yard close to the fence where he would run and bark at people as they passed by. The hubby always took good care of the bigger dogs. He would brush and play with them outside, but he clearly didn't like the little one.

No loud noise after 10p.m. and before 7 or 8 a.m. My neighbors have a supposed Chi who they left outside 24/7 and who barked non stop. Then their grown daughter left her supposed Chi and it was a duo. My 6+ don't make as much noise and their other neighbor complained. She came to my backyard fence while I was out reading and said that isn't your dogs barking. Nope, I keep on my guys.

FL must have some pretty strict laws. Wonder if he is a yapper, and if neighbors constantly complained. Is there a law for barking dogs in FL? Hope they gave the little guy a blanket......he really needs one.

A story of moronic owners . He is being held for citations. So the owner has 30 days to decide to pay up or go to court to contest. Shelter won't say what the charges against the owners are but it could be anything from no rabies tag to biting someone to letting him run loose and be a nuisance. Meanwhile this scared little guy has to stay in this environment. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr..
