Tenant complaining about dog barking
A tenant that has lived in one of my units for a year now and works from home (and has just renewed their lease for another year) is complaining about a dog barking, who is owned by a tenant that just moved in two days ago. The new tenant has just relocated here from out of state, and I am wondering how other landlords handle these complaints. It's not a huge issue yet, but I'm concerned this could become an ongoing issue.

This falls under quiet enjoyment. Every tenant has the right to enjoy their home without noise intrusion. Contact the new tenant and create a plan for the dog to stop barking. Bark collar, doggie daycare, rehome the dog, etc.
