    Default My neighbor is videotaping my yard

    Is it legal for my neighbors to videotape our backyard without our knowledge? Apparently our puppy was keeping them awake which we were unaware of and instead of coming to us to let us know they decided to videotape our yard and our dog. My 4 daughters swim in our pool in the same area he was videotaping and I am very uncomfortable to take them out there now. My husband confronted our neighbor after we caught him videotaping our yard and that is when we were told that our dog was bothering them and they stated they are "trying to make a case against us" We absolutely do not want our dog to disturb anyone but we were not aware it was an issue until the videotaping.

    Default Oblivious

    I'm sorry I don't have the answer to your question but I just can't let this go without a reply.

    My neighbour has insanely barking dogs. They are always out between 5 and 7am. In my city there is a by-law that prohibits that kind of noise between 11PM and 7AM. I DID tell her, she didn’t care. She says 'dog are going to bark'. To make a long story short, I've complained to our property management company, the police and the city. They have all warned her, but it continues.

    The police recommended that I keep a log of the barking. I went one step further and started a video log. I don't care if it may be considered legal or not. She's breaking the law, I've reported it, nothing is being done so I am building a case.

    In your case, I think you are completely insane. Your neighbour shouldn't have to tell you that your dogs are causing a nuisance. You are an adult (apparently)... you and ONLY you are responsible for your animals. But here's a tip...If your dogs are barking, they are disturbing someone. PERIOD. Dogs don't just bark for no reason at all. Do a little research on barking dogs and you will find ALL the reasons for the behaviour.

    I especially resent that you are now so concerned for your 4 daughters swimming. What a cop out. That's just bs. That's you, deflecting from the real problem here. Your children aren't doing anything differently when they are on video, as opposed to when they are not. Your neighbour is not a pedophile because he's got inconsiderate neighbours. You brought this upon yourself.

    Stop being childish...stop your dogs from barking, apologize to the neighbour and in a short time, he will take his camera down... that is, if you can control your dogs.

    I don't want to spend ANY time videotapping my neighbour, it's a PAIN in the ASS. I do it because I am forced to.
