{^) When my four brothers and I were kids, we had a neighbor for awhile who'd let his dog loose very early in the morning and the dog would come and favor our lawn with a big steaming pile.

He was only half joking when he suggested to my mom that early some morning he should roust us kids out of bed and herd us over to that neighbor's lawn to return the favor five-fold.

My dad, that is!! He’s the one who was an early-enough riser to spot the dog!
