To move matters forward, I would think she needs proof of your dog's barking excessively or at late hours (video with audio). If you're certain your pup isn't offending as she alleges, then you should be ok.

It may be a nice gesture to get to know her and ask her to contact you immediately if she thinks your dog is barking. It may not even be your dog and she just thinks it is. You'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar and you just may be surprised what a little kindness may get you.

I have an old lady neighbor I immediately befriended when I moved in to my house because I know while I'm not home, she watches my house like a hawk and will contact me if anything weird happens.

Look at it from her point of view. If you still feel your dog isn't a problem, then try to kill her with kindness. Take a look at her property and see if she needs a little extra work done. Ask to do it for her. Grill up some steaks and invite her over to be neighborly. Little old ladies are set in their ways and hate change so to overcome this, you need to get on her good side. She will come around, if you make the effort. Don't let it fester.
