OPP say the 41-year-old man went to his neighbour’s home between 2 a.m. and 2:30 a.m. where he barked and howled.

They say he was fed up with his neighbour’s dogs barking at all hours of the day.

Police say the man’s barking and howling outside his neighbour’s window made the dogs inside that house bark excessively.

They say they spoke to the neighbours and helped mediate a resolution — and both were warned about contravening the Norfolk County noise bylaw.
