Barking dogs is usually an owner issue not the dog's fault. Great to see you back at the renovation of this cozy guest house 😊🇨🇦
Inconsiderate neighbors need to be trained, lol. Excessive barking ,It's a shame.
Feel bad for the dog.
You are right about that Sherry. I have dogs next to me and behind me and both dogs are lovely. However, they too barked every time I went outside. So, I started talking to them. They would start barking and I would respond with questions like; "how are you doing today?" "You enjoying the weather?" And then I started praising the animal; "you're a good puppy" (i.e., boy, girl; even better if you learn their names). "You are doing a good job." I did not yell, just spoke in normal range; used a pleasant voice and praised the dogs on their good job protecting the neighborhood. I did this every time I went outside. Within 2-3 weeks, the dogs did not bark when I came outside. If you know the name of the dog, it is even faster.
Hello Sherry how are you doing today
It blows my mind how everyone can hear an annoying barking dog, except the owner. I love your dry sense of humor. So refreshing! Watching from 🇨🇦
Hello Tammy how are you doing today
A suggestion for blocking the view to your neighbor's chaos...a fence with the top panels shaped like treetops, then have one of your artist friends paint a mural on it creating a forest vista. Trompe l'oeil effect, or full on fantasy forest, whatever suits your aesthetic. - Side note: I'm SO VERY GLAD you're back, you were missed.
I don't want to add any pressure but: it is so good to have you back :)
They say there’s nothing more boring than watching paint dry, but ‘they’ haven’t watched you paint a ceiling! It’s great to be back on the tools with you renovating once again.
One thing I really appreciate about the music in your videos is that the volume level is always good: I never have to turn it down. Many people who make videos for CZcams end up with their music much louder than their voices, so I keep having to adjust the volume down and up, down and up, down and up.
Oh my goodness, that yapping dog would send me around the bend! Love the white ceiling, it certainly brightens up the space.
I hope no one is complaining about your videos... It is quite evident how much effort goes into one. ❤🇨🇦
So nice of you
Your sense of humor is golden! 😂😂 Love it! I'm so sorry no one has taught that dog to "shut the front door!" So good to have you back.
Hello Kimberly how are you doing today
Definitely looks brighter and fresher in white. I like it
You have no idea how happy hearing the intro music makes me. Missed you loads although I know how much work a CZcams channel can be. At some point I was so worn out that I simply walked away from it - and subtitling a love story is no fun when going through a breakup. Glad you listened to what you needed.
It's going to be great to have a guest/music room. Living tiny is great but sometimes it does have its limitations. Right there with you when it come to yappy dogs. We have one in our neighborhood too and I don't know whether the dog or its owner who's constantly yelling "Felix, PLEASE stop" is more annoying.
Even the out-of-sync stripes are graceful and relaxing (not flickering) on Andre’s channel!
Bright and light colours are the best way to feel good in smaller rooms and of course some sets of mirrors. This is all coming together at your place. The beautiful small cottage must be nice in the summertime. Good luck with everything you are planing.Nice watching the videos. 🍀🌳🌷🍀
Hello Olafia how are you doing today
So sorry about the dog…or actually, the owner(s). So inconsiderate. The bedroom is coming along well! The white ceiling really opens up the room. It always takes me a minute to let go and relax when I watch your videos, but I appreciate it so much. A zen moment for me, and I look forward to them so much! Hope you have a happy week…see you soon 😊
White ceiling looks great. Much brighter in the room . Welcome back and look forward to seeing more of u guys and the remodeling. Keep up the great work !Watching u from the USA.
Such a gem of a cottage. Thank You for taking us along as visual guests.
You're more than welcome!
Was there an outlet covered at 5:12? Maybe I was seeing something. This will be a lovely little house when finished.
I love the poke at your partner for borrowing your lights, such a real life situation is almost all homes LOL
Hello Erin how are you doing today
My weekend dose of calm all the way from Germany 😘💖
Love the white paint❤
Glad you found a way to deal with the yapping dog. We have one next door, too. Luckily, I can’t hear it in the bedroom, but my studio is on that side of the house, so I hear him loud and clear all day long. We have a noise ordinance in our town, but I hate to be the “bad” neighbor who reports them.
Please do. They are the bad neighbor. And once dog is confiscated, it can be given to people actually capable of having it.
Why not get the electrical saw going from 6-8 p.m. or cut some firewood for yourself and all the other neighbors that can't stand the yapping? Just a thought
A white, light ceiling is always a good choice. It'll go well with whatever colours you put on the walls.
I'm glad you're back and I'm enjoying your progress!
Yes! Thank you!
i would NEVER pause & forward because of a few lines...don't want to miss one moment of your video❤!!
so glad to see you back, good luck with the studies.
I enjoyed every second of the video. I could probably also watch paint dry...lol. Such is my life now. The white ceiling in the bedroom looks so nice! Thanks for continuing to bring us along for the journey.
Enjoyed the video! So glad you're back! I have two yappy dogs. But I always make them come inside when they start barking. I like for my neighbors to like me!
🙂👍
"... but you would miss out on me spray painting!" This earned a literal laugh out loud.
I don't think I understand doubling up the drywall on the chimney; certainly the brick/stone in there isn't transferring sound in or out?
(I must say though: I'm so glad to see you back. I don't expect it, but am grateful for it, and that you're "staying healthy" while doing it! :) )
It's great to see this abandoned house turn into a Home. Keep it up!
White always makes the room bigger! But small patches of color will make the room pop! Nice soundproofing!
Small patches of color can be a couple pictures on the wall, a throw across foot of bed, or a couple throw pillows on the bed or colored sheers on the windows.
Are there no noise ordinances where you can report a barking dog after say 10:00 pm preventing you from sleeping??
Hello Linda how are you doing today
The white looks great. The dog needs to shut the front door comment made me laugh out loud 🤣
Glad to see your videos again!
shivering black bell thumbs up, I like the musice and thankyou for returning! 🥰
good to see you back. hope you’re both well
Yes we are - thanks for watching again! :)
Your neighbour's dog is frightened, in sole responsibility for the care of an empty house, and can hear you - doesn't know if you're a threat. Why don't you ask your neighbours to: 1. Introduce you, &/or; 2. If they can leave their dog outside in your care for one day; so he/she can learn you're no threat. It's social and cheaper than double panelling you walls. 🕊🐶😊🤗
The white looks really nice. I appreciate you sharing this adventure with us. I love the rounded doorways. I use a white noise app to block out my neighbor’s annoying dog barking.
Just going to say my husband and I decided to double the drywall throughout our house to help deaden the noise with 5 kids. The double thickness actually increased the sound travel. I later learned that the has to be a good between the layers so the sound waves can’t travel. This was my experience.
Cant wait to see it when you're done. Good to see you!!!!!!!
GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK ON YOUR PROJECT
Thank you :)
Wow on the dog. Bad dog owners!!! And you are so considerate of any future guests.
Can’t go wrong with white…I like it very much.
Excellent idea to use a second layer of sheetrock for soundproofing. Did the same thing in my kitchen years ago because I live in a row house where I share a mutual kitchen wall with my neighbor. Since it is 1 inch thick, it also serves as a one-hour fire wall between dwellings.
That's a great idea!
I live in a duplex and we hear every sound from next door despite the wall between the 2 homes being a cement block wall filled ground to roof with concrete. to make a firewall and to comply with Florida hurricane standards on new construction.
@@ginger1549 Concrete is an excellent sound transmitter!
Please do not apologise for the beginning, it brought back happy memories of my childhood for when the TV would have blackline's on it when the signal played up, i forgot about them till i saw them on here, well done on the good work.
Blame the owner, not the bored/lonely dog 💕🐾
I like the white and light colors always makes a room seem larger 😊
So glad your back
...yeah, but I love the music during your presentation! So glad your back!
Hello Aquene how are you doing today
Bow Wow...! Well that should help take care of the problem, along with a nice tall Hedge!
Good tipp!
Glad to see you back in the house.😊
I worked with a company that built a hotel and one of the requirements was a low coefficient of sound factor. To do so an additional layer of drywall was added to one side of each room with a little air lather in between.
Andre, maybe look into getting a high pitched dog whistle. They make no sound (actually, they do, but only dogs can hear it). Maybe by you blowing it every time he starts barking uncontrollably, he will stop. If so, do it every time he does it.. you're essentially training the dog to understand that he needs to stop when you blow the whistle. But it's sad, coz that dog is probably bored as hell and just needs some stimulation. Are you "friendly" with your neighbours? Is there any way you could make "friends with the dog" and get him some toys? .. if so, a Kong is a GREAT stimulation toy for dogs. It's a thick rubber toy with a hole. You place treats inside.. peanut butter etc.. and they spend a lot of time trying to get the food out. It tires them quick. I know what I'm suggesting is A LOT and it's something the dog's owner should be doing, not you, but if you're going to be living next to that dog from now on, the noise will only aggravate you more and more. Just a suggestion.
I remember when you started removing everything from this room in the beginning. I loved the brick. But I'm sure it will be amazing when you are done. Hugs my friend. Your doing a great job.
White paint ( and furniture ) reflects light so house has a light
bright fresh airy ambience.
Yay. A new video. I was just thinking of this channel today. I must be psychic, haha.
I hope that you had a wonderful day on your birthday. Your house is coming along beautifully. Thank you for sharing your renovation with us. Have a blessed week.
Hello Eve how are you doing today
So good to see you.
hi friend, I was following the reform from the beginning, I missed seeing in the last year, because I was not subscribed and did not remember the name of the channel, but today after three hours of research I found you again, I think amazing, you reform everything yourself, I am your Brazilian fan. :)
Your channel was one of my first that I subscribed when you started your renovation.I am happy to see you back on the channnel and look forward to your completion of your project.I agree with a previous comment about barking dogs being an owner problem more often than the animal itself.I often wonder what the earth would be like if people were more responsible in their decision to be pet owners or parents.Just a thought.Keep up your good work.
Everything is coming together fine, look great. Have a wonderful week God Bless stay safe & well.😊
Glad you are back. I've missed your videos. Although I have been known to Bing some old ones.
blijft mooi om je weer te zien en dat park is ook mooi vriendelijke groeten uit den haag nederland
The combination of your soothing voice and the satisfaction of watching you accomplish your construction goals, and your music choice, are so relaxing and bring the blood pressure down. So, when the dog drives you the most nuts (I have neighbors who don’t quiet their dogs either😡), just watch one of your videos👍👏👏
:-)))
@@renovationeast9379 Your intro about the barking dogs- so cute and yet so ‘subtle.’ IMO.
Happy belated birthday. Love your videos and happy to see you back to making videos.
Andre, it's too bad you had to do that twice because of a neighbors barking dog. Shame on that dog owner.
As always, it is a pleasure to see you work.
I am happy you did come back : }
The crocus are beautiful.
Look up Bark Stop. They sell a gadget you hang near the offensive barking that looks like a bird house. It deters most dogs from barking. I hope this helps the neighborhood find peace again 😅
We live where there is a Homeowners association. While for the most part I think it is a pain in the neck - they would put a quick stop to incessant barking. The owners would either get the dog professionally trained, get rid of the dog or move away. Otherwise the fines would be very high.
Hi Andre, I feel for you and your neighbors when it comes to dealing with a yapping dog. I had a neighbor with one also. I hope you and others in the neighborhood can use some law or ordinance to correct this problem. Good luck.
Barking dogs are the bane of our existence, we have 11 dogs between the five families out on our acreage. One one starts they all join in like it is the Midnight Bark! Even ours who are inside. The white looks great.
You need to have a little friendly chat to the dog.
"Hey dog, you wanna play football - you're the ball"!
Failing that you need to have that same cat with the dog's owner.
No need to skip ahead. Things happen in life out of our control sometimes. Always worth watching.
Thank you :)
@@renovationeast9379 -Welcome.👍
I can feel the rage at that dog through my monitor, lol.
To you also. Make the most of the weekend. Be efficient, productive, Creative, and continue improving all around you. Looks perfect.
Thank you! You too!
Yet more progress! Coming along beautifully! Thankyou! XXX
Ooohh I can't wait!
I agree!
Hello Kathy how are you doing today
Looking Good!
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Always enjoy,and no need to skip ahead. Have a good week ahead.
Thank you! You too!
It’s coming along, slow n steady does it.
I do empathise, as I too have a neighbour with a little dog that loves to bark, but he prefers later in the evening, just when your head is touching the pillow 😉
Sorry to hear that
Perfect idea with the double layered drywall. Could really use that here as well to drown out the sound of people and outside disturbances and constant distractions. Never the less, always much better here watching. Keep up all the excellent work, my friend.
Thank you!
Better use acrylic to fill the gaps in the panels and then apply the paint. Then it will look like one cast ;)
My neighbour has a rescue dog that wouldn't stop barking at any little noise no matter what she tried even dog therapy in the end after lots of rows her husband brought a device called tiptop anti dog barking.. It worked & it's not even used anymore. He is the most spoilt dog because of his life before. The white ceiling looks so much better & I hope your sound proofing works. Did you have to water down the paint to spray it before using in the spray gun?
The light quality does matter but I just enjoy whatever u r able to show us. So if construction lights r what u use go for it we'll enjoy the video because we enjoy u and lasso. Hope u both have a good week.
So nice of you
You are very considerate of your guests to want to ensure they have a quiet night's sleep.
Great job on more sound proofing! Sorry dog (owner) is a barker. Looking good....
Thank you so much, it was a treat, I do like the real time part, it is relaxing to watch. Kind regards
Hello good work 👍 on the cabin
The white looks bright and clean
We had a herd of Scottish deerhiubds and an Imperial huge poodle. Often made no sound. Which was no indication of whether they would silently attack . Happy was not their firte but sometimes would have been better than being considered a deer or in the i. case of poodle some water bird . Still yapping is worth sound proofing.. stay well.
Soundproofing will good if you don’t open the windows, I guess. I like white on the ceiling too. 👍🇨🇦
I really have a strong preference for unfinished/unpainted wood. I hated seeing the ceiling covered up like that.
Excellent solution for the barking dog! You may enjoy this poem by Billy Collins about his neighbors barking dog:
The neighbors' dog will not stop barking.
He is barking the same high, rhythmic bark
that he barks every time they leave the house.
They must switch him on on their way out.
The neighbors' dog will not stop barking.
I close all the windows in the house
and put on a Beethoven symphony full blast
but I can still hear him muffled under the music,
barking, barking, barking,
and now I can see him sitting in the orchestra,
his head raised confidently as if Beethoven
had included a part for barking dog.
When the record finally ends he is still barking,
sitting there in the oboe section barking,
his eyes fixed on the conductor who is
entreating him with his baton
while the other musicians listen in respectful
silence to the famous barking dog solo,
that endless coda that first established
Beethoven as an innovative genius.
Hello Leslie how are you doing today
I like the white in the guest bedroom. Nice and bright. Poor dog. Shame on the owners.
Great video, thanks for sharing Andre.
White looks much better than brown. Love your flowers, too. (Not the dog, though). Hugs to you and Laslo.
Thank you :)
Hi Andre’!! So glad to see you again and your progress on the house! Does the doubled plasterboard give you any additional advantage as fireproofing? Does it result in increased resistance to fire - giving you a 3-hour rating rather than a 2-hour rating? So sorry about your inconsiderate neighbor, but perhaps they simply need to know that you hear the dog bark, too, and that it disturbs your peace and quiet (as well as sleep!). Good luck with that tricky encounter!
Yay! Happy Sunday, Andre!!!
Hello Daymon how are you doing today
We have the same problem with the new next door 's dog, drives me made and never hear them saying now stop, he barks all day and night, but never hear anything from the people, I know it's not the dog's fault, but keep it under control . Xx
Love the videos. Keep them coming please.
Thanks, will do!
Good to see you. Your crocus look great. Mine aren't too bad either. Lots of tete a tete but lots and lots of rain here. Look forward to some sunlight like you have.
I feel your pain! My husband is a veterinary dermatologist and people ask us why we don’t have pets. That’s why! 😂. Doesn’t mean we dislike pets, it’s that barking! And clients think it’s cute. 😮. Good luck
