How often laws are enforced is a separate issue, a distraction.
Point being: just because there's a law doesn't mean things will change. It's illegal to bring guns to school, right?
The existence of the barking dog law shows there is a consensus regarding not disturbing your neighbors.
For some value of "disturbing" and "neighbors", yes -- I suspect the "noisy dog" rules were created for the benefit of town dwellers on high-density R-zoned lots.
I maintain that some zoning types are simply not appropriate for some densities, such as when Ag zoning is applied to a 65x120 foot parcel. Why can't we just fix that?
