Loud and Barking Dogs
Barking dogs cause frequent complaints to the Irvine Police Department, particularly in warm weather when windows are open. While it may be a violation of law to allow a dog to bark excessively, residents are encouraged, when practical, to speak with their neighbor to attempt to resolve the disturbance prior to requesting law enforcement intervention.
If the problem persists after trying to resolve it with the animal owner, residents are encouraged to contact Irvine Police Dispatch at 949-724-7200. Be prepared to provide the exact address of the barking dog and to supply as much detail as possible regarding the nuisance.
