So you could try to settle the whole thing peacefully, just talk to the owner, tell him that his dog is suffering and that he may need some training for staying alone or more activity or perhaps a pal to play around with. Perhaps you could even offer taking care of the dog while he is away.

Or you could try forcing the owner to take action, for example by filing a lawsuit due to the constant barking (depends on local law) or by going to an animal shelter and telling them that the dog is perhaps not being treated correctly.

If you think the dog is being abused (malnurished, maybe erratic or scared behaviour) you should probably go to an animal shelter anyway.

I'd also like to share that the owner is sort of a prick who's living in his mom's basement, has no job and no actual real world abilities nor does he know how to do anything except just be jerk off and loaf around all day. That's why he buys dogs and rapes the- I mean doesn't take care of them.
