Sub Rosa

We are currently being driven potty by the dog residing at the holiday rental cottage next door.  It does nothing but bark - doesn't like being left alone and every sound sets it off.  I am usually quite tolerant to the holiday makers - next door is a second home and they only let family members and friends use it.  Right now though, it is grating on my senses and am on the verge of phoning up the original owners asking who is in and why is the dog continually kicking off?  Poor dog is probably frightened and wants it's owners to stay at home and eat.

Rant over.
