A town in France is facing criticism over a new penalty they've imposed on dog owners whose pets are keeping their neighbors up at night.
The small town of Feuquières, in Northern France, has placed a €68 fine (about $77) on the owners of dogs who exhibit "prolonged or repeated barking" that "disturbs the rest or relaxation" of the town. Dogs who bark excessively must be kept inside, and are not allowed to be kept in enclosed spaces without their owners being nearby to quell loud barking.
