Who Let the Dogs Out?

I knew that many dogs live around the Science Center in Dharamsala and I expected them to be a bit noisy.  Two years ago when I was in the same area, I had a run in with a pack of aggressive dogs when I went on an early morning walk.  No early walks for me this time!

Some people wear earplugs when they sleep to reduce the chance of waking up in the middle of the night to a chorus of barking dogs. I've never been able to wear these and sleep at the same time.  So it has been no surprise that after dropping off to sleep, I've been awakened to barking in the middle of the night. Last night the barking started at about 1 am and went on for about an hour.

I just wish the dogs could hold off until 6 or 7 am.  That way they would make a great alarm clock.
