Sylvia, I also have inconsiderate arrogant neighbors that think my yard is their dogs toilet. Maybe a little extreme, but yeah, keep your dog off my property.
And Lee used to be so sleepy and melllow decades ago and so was Lake !
I won’t let my dog crap on a nice lawn. And no matter where she craps, I pull the bag out, visibly holding it before she even begins so anybody with a problem knows I’m prepared to pick up the poop.
When I read the line about the woman saying that she knew she was in trouble, I felt bad for her. At least she takes pride in her property.
i put alot of dog poop back on their driveway. He parked next to it, and walked right in it. They do not care.
I'd like to know how you clean up their pee.
I would like to know, too. Dog pee leaves big yellow burn spots on the grass.
My dogs are in my yard and always have been. I would never allow them to be in anyone else’s yard.
Yeah. Pee doesn’t just disappear. People can walk on it, and if they’re in bare feet or sandals, that’s pretty disgusting.
Looks like Moochele has gained some weight.
Yup. If it keeps up, drop it in a sprayer and make a tea to spray her yard/house with while she’s out walking Fido.
‘Liquid Fence’ is the best.
There are sprays you can buy to repel deer; or if there is a male dog in your household, have them pee in a spray bottle and spray that around (male humans, too). Some of my neighbors add garlic and cigarette ashes to the pee.
I have had fair luck by tying 1" strips of fabric softener sheets (like Downy) to the fencing around the flowers or also to the branches of suscepltible shrubs, but it ruins the looks of the garden, even when you tie them in bows.
Finally I dug up all my really susceptible plants (google what they like and don't like) and now have things they mostly don't like, such as marigolds, mint varieties, sage, and crysanthemums. But they will eat anything in a pinch.
They really love hollies, any type of lily, hostas, sunflowers, tomatoes, hydrangea, coneflowers, even geraniums. Buh-bye to all those.
Spraying it on the yard will only help fertilize their lawn. Better to spray it on their lawn chairs, provided they don’t have cameras. I have an ultimate solution but I’m not going to write it online.
Let me add that it can get expensive. But, you do what you must to get what you want.
We always keep bags with us and always pick up the poop
...aaand there's the rub.
People shouldn’t have dogs if they don’t have a yard. Poor things cooped up inside all day and having to hold their pee and poo until their owner eventually comes home and decides they want to walk them. Get a house with a yard and put a fence around it. Give the dog plenty of shade and water and you won’t have angry neighbors beating you with bats.
The best solution to this I’ve heard of (never tried) is to pour bacon grease over the pile. The next time the offender comes by, it smells Bacon! And eats it, much to the horror of the owner.
Like I said, never tried it. It makes for a nice, disgusting anecdote, if nothing else.
Pepper the yard.
Sounds like a completely justified and reasonable response to an invasion of her space. to me.
