Danny and Jenny Reid have been ordered to rehome 21 of their hoard of Pomeranians after neighbours complained about their "hellish" barking. Jenny Reid with one of her 27 Pomeranians Neighbours have complained about the noise from Danny and Jenny's Exeter home They were fined £500 each for failing to comply with a noise abatement order, plus an extra grand to cover costs and a victim surcharge.
