Dog barking

There is a dog that has been barking for the last 45minutes to an hour in lower Shiplake. I'm not sure exactly where. It is heartbreaking to hear a dog bark when they are outside and I am assuming not been let back in. Please can all dog owners be mindful of where their dogs are and look after them properly. Not only has it woken up probably a lot of people in this hot weather with our windows open, but it's also really sad to hear it barking so much. It is obviously distressed. Thank you so much. I hope the dog is ok.

Pretty sure this was a dog trying to get back into a house! Was pretty consistent and very dog like. Def not foxes as we're used to those. Not sure about a muntjac tho?!  Apparently there is a specific dog it is likely to be sadly.

Or the annoying muntjac. They definitely bark and are very loud.

Could this be foxes? I've noticed a lot around at the moment especially near the railway and station. This time of year cubs become very active.
