It's a saying meaning about the same as one talking about sheep; "Lots of bleating, barely any wool". Describing people who shout and comment a lot (in a negative way), but do not go through with what they say. The sayings are not about actual dogs or sheep.

Thanks, Hyke. Have never heard the expression so didn't consider it might be idiom.

Oh, the saying about sheep differs from the one about dogs in that the "bleating sheep" are advertising how awesome and good they are, and then comes the deception, there is barely anything true.

Sometimes I think those sheepy commercials weren't so baaaaa-aa-aaaad after-all. The newer ones from Tele-2 are way worse.

my latest neighbor. I know he is online-gambling, I spotted it over his shoulder. This kind of moronity is bound to manifest in more ways, and indeed it does. He has removed the rotting fruit and vegetables from the kitchen now, but it's too late. The house still swarms with flies and smells like utter shit, probably due to shabby clean up, and pieces of vegetable hidden around the house, rotting. The bathroom also stinks of rotting vegetables

I went out to throw away garbage today, and opening the can, there were a bunch of white fucking maggots crawling all over the edges, I've never seen that before, the whole time I've lived here

the guy is a fucking bio-hazard disaster...

Time for fly traps.
Fruitflies like to drown themselves in a bit of wine. Other flies somehow like similar stuff as wasps. My wasp trap gets filled with flies all the time.
Somehow we still have lots of flies in this house, even when the amount of livestock at both neighbours has been more than decimated. So, got a home-made wasp-trap in the corner of my windowsill now. Works best of all traps, so far. No flies here in the mornings.

And a cleaning spree has to happen. If he doesn't know how, maybe you will have to. Otherwise the mice will be coming in for winter in flocks too.

The hood of my car was smashed in for the second time in a year. The next night, five mailboxes, starting with the one just after mine, were smashed and knocked over. Two weeks later, gun shots were heard and the cops came out a few houses down. This is the freaking suburbs and decent-sized homes of middle class families.
Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems

There's a man in my neighbourhood in his mid-50's who wears huge 70's sunglasses and his mode of transportation is this 80's styled bike with a banana seat. It cracks me up every time I see him because it's like someone timewarped him in from another decade. :laugh:

His bike looks like this:
