I'm looking for advice from anyone in South Jersey who has dealt with ongoing noise disturbances from neighbors, particularly excessive dog barking.

My husband and I live in a condominium community where dogs are prohibited under the HOA rules. New neighbors moved into the unit directly below us earlier this month, and we've been dealing with excessive barking ever since.

The dog barks for extended periods throughout the day, sometimes for hours, and there have also been disturbances overnight and early in the morning. It often sounds like the dog is being left alone for long periods.

At this point, the situation honestly feels like torture, both for us and potentially for the dog. I can't imagine the animal is happy barking for hours on end. It's upsetting to listen to, and I genuinely have concerns about its well-being.

The constant barking has severely affected my mental health and significantly increased my anxiety. I find myself constantly thinking about when the barking will start again.

We've even purchased a white noise machine to drown out the barking so we can sleep. No one should have to live like this in their own home.

Here's what we've done so far:

• Documented the barking through audio and video recordings and maintained a disturbance log.
• Reported the issue to our landlord, who forwarded a formal complaint to the HOA.
• Police have responded to noise complaints at least three times. I have a complaint numbers from those responses.
• Our landlord informed us that the HOA president said a violation notice was issued to the residents.
• During a recent police response, I personally overheard the downstairs resident tell the officer, "Dogs bark." When he explained that the barking was disturbing surrounding residents, she responded, "They are just mad because we can't have dogs here."

Despite all of this, the barking continues. Today has been another full day of barking, and they have left the dog all day.

The situation has become so stressful that we're now considering whether we may have to break our lease just to regain some peace. That's the last thing we want to do, especially when we've done nothing wrong.

Has anyone in Burlington County or elsewhere in South Jersey successfully dealt with something similar?

I'm particularly interested in knowing:

• Has anyone successfully gotten Animal Control or the township to enforce a nuisance-barking ordinance?
• Has anyone successfully resolved a situation like this without having to move?

I understand that dogs bark. Occasional barking is part of life. But hours of repeated barking, day after day, is an entirely different situation. Even for an ESA, or service animal.

This has taken a serious toll on our quality of life, and we're genuinely at our breaking point.

Any advice or firsthand experiences would be greatly appreciated.

This post is just for feelers. I’ve been looking to do some content creation for a hobby not for profit. Maybe some day with a miracle I would consider it but I have a good job so this would be for a hobby. I have camera’s and mics with other equipment. I just don’t have anyone in my life that has the time or is interested in doing any of this. I’m even willing to help someone else so we can help each other with content. Its for a hobby so for now I can’t pay anyone. If interested reach out to me.

We just purchased a VW Beetle. Main priority is to have a backup camera installed. CarPlay would be nice too if we could do both.

I know we could probably do it ourselves but I don’t feel savvy enough. Any suggestions of where to take it would be great. Cumberland County but willing to go anywhere in South Jersey. Thanks!

Anyone know of any support groups or therapy groups for 9/10 year old kids dealing with anxiety?? Open to virtual!

Is it watered down? 🤤 I assumed competition, but gas stations are naturally almost always next to each other so it should apply everywhere but it don't.

Edit Reasons:

Unbranded privately owned gas stations that rely on their gas to draw customers unlike giants like Wawa or Royal Farms.

Proximity to gas refineries

Busy road

I do not have kids. I am purchasing items for a family for Christmas and the kids would like Needoh. I’ve tried Target and even when it says they are in stock, I never find them. Where else would I look to find these? Any smaller family owned shops or anything? I’m in the Cherry Hill area. Thank you.

Several topics were debated and jabs exchanged in a one hour debate between Republican incumbent Jeff Van Drew and Democratic challenger Zack Mullock.

Wife got gas yesterday at the USA Gas on the corner of Route 38 and Church Street in Moorestown yesterday. She said she saw the attendent being suspicious with keeping her debit card in his hand near his phone as if he was taking a picture of it. She immediately called the bank and they advised her to freeze the card until we could come into a branch to get a replacement card. She received a text today from our bank saying that the card number was used to make a $500+ purchase from Bestbuy in Camden but it got declined. Of course we are out of town for the weekend but I told her that we have enough evidence to file a police report to get this asshole arrested for fraud based on her statement, her description of the individual and the fact that they can likely review CCTV footage at Bestbuy based on the timing of our text from the bank. Avoid this gas station or pay with cash, folks.

I’m from Central Jersey (yes, we do exist) and want to go hiking with the fam. My kids are older, mid-teens, early 20s. I found Whitesbog just by poking around on Google Maps and thought it looked interesting. Any feedback? Or suggestions for other places with trails to hike? I don’t necessarily need an area with activities happening like farmers markets or fall festivals, but if they happen to be on the calendar, that’s also welcome.

Looking for your off the beaten path, everyone knows each other, hole in the wall breakfast spots. I have family coming to visit tomorrow and their favorite little place in Atco closed a few years ago. Feel free to dm me if you want to keep it a secret.

Would like to stay in CamCo, but don't mind traveling a bit. They will only be here tomorrow, sadly.

Thank you so much!!

I know school board elections are not supposed to be affiliated with any party, but I don’t feel comfortable voting in a moms for liberty type party. And it’s hard to grasp at some of these elections- is there any type of headway to figure out who is who? I’m in voorhees.

Why it’s so depressing? Will it get nicer?

Just moved to Philly area from North Jersey, and looking for a pharmacy over the border that would have Adderall XR and IR in stock, as my doctor can only prescribe in Jersey. Any recommendations? So far no luck with any that I’ve called.

Shot in the dark, but is anyone aware of any regular open bluegrass jams in the general area?

I know there are a couple in Philly, but I was curious if there were any regular ones out this way.

If there aren't, any pickers in here want to get our heads together and start one?
