Bought the plugs already, its the only way we can sleep and stoped buying from him a few days ago. Maybe i wait a few more days and go back and ask him if you want me to buy more get rid of your Zoo?
The guy has a dog and a rooster, that is pretty standard here. I've lived in about 7 different house/apartments in the DR and basically what you have is a good situation by comparison with how bad it could be.
Can you imagine if it was a colmadon with the loud thumpedy thumpedy and plinky plinky music with a crowd of drunks yelling at each other?
I consider my living situation to be the quietest I've found since I have moved to this country. My neighbors have 5 dogs that run around the whole neighborhood chasing cars and bark at the moon all night long.
There are chickens and roosters wandering around all over the neighborhood and a Haitian family squatting some construction behind the house. The husband gets drunk and beats his wife once a week or so, and their toddler age child screams his head off pretty frequently.
I consider it a very quiet living situation, the best I've found in 10 years in 7 different locations because there are no colmadones or neighbors who play loud music (well 3 or 4 times a year one may crank the radio) also, the road in front is in very bad repair so no one cruises through there with the radio turned way up, and there aren't many motorcycles driving through without mufflers.
Basically from reading your post I think you may not realize how bad it can get, and if you actually asked your neighbor to do something about his dog barking or his rooster crowing I have no doubt he will be laughing about this (though maybe not to your face) whenever he thinks of you.
I think you should just accept these noises as facts of life here, count yoru blessings and try to remember that dogs bark and roosters crow and yet our ancestors survived just fine.
Trust me, it could be much worse. 3 years ago I lived in the middle of a loud stereo war between 3 of my neighbors, and on top of that the fourth one had to blast his TV straight into my bedroom to hear it at all above the rest of them.
I tried a lot of things including involving the police, making threats, getting my own radio and trying to drown them out, and nothing worked except packing up and moving. You cannot imagine what I would have given at the time to find a place where the only noise came form a dog and a rooster.
