Bug window, dog, suggestions

attached is a photo of the window in question.

Can you think of a way I could block my lurcher from seeing out without compromising too much on light?

The neighbour has a dog who’s allowed roam, another couple have roaming cats. My dog, obviously, likes to look out but goes mad at the other dog (who goes mad outside of the window) and cats, which wakes my newborn and upsets my toddler; so I have two screaming children and a barking dog, and it’s super stressful.

In a couple of years we’ll be putting in a porch that should help but in the meantime i’m Trying to think of something I could do that won’t take all the light. Any ideas?

I was going to suggest a window film too - you can get different patterns and designs and as colourful or simple as you like. A house we pass on our walk has a kind of stained glass one that’s lovely.
