Keeping Dogs off Property (yes it is the offseason)

Re: Keeping Dogs off Propery (yes it is the offseason)

I think your only recourse is to stop the dog when you see it on your lawn and tell you how him/her being there makes you feel and how you and he/she need to have open lines of communication going forward with regards to where he drops a dookie. Dogs are reasonable creatures, they'll listen.

2 ladies were walking their dog behind my house last spring on trail. I was upstairs fixing washing machine when I happened to notice them out window. Dog walked right up to my fence, left a steaming pile and walked away. She walked up to it, looked around, then left it there and walked away. I started pounding on window and she looked up and they both started walking faster. ****** me off to no end.
Then yesterday I was mowing my front yard and walked right through one that looked like it was left by a bear. Seriously people, its just one of the responsibilities of owning a dog.

See post #2 (appropriately) in this thread. If your attitude is that you don't need to pick up after your dog, you should be executed. Anyone with that attitude should not be allowed to raise kids, vote, drive, or use any other resources that could be utilized by responsible people.

Hide in the bushes dressed in camo, facepaint, Rambo headband, shirtless with a machete and patiently wait for someone to leave their dog's **** on your sidewalk. Then jump out screaming at them to pick it up.

It takes patience, but people will think twice about not picking up after their dogs around your house. In fact, nobody will ever walk by again.

2 bags for every dog you're walking. Not hard, get pockets.

My dog will occasionally be a triple-bagger. I don't know how a beagle has that much poo inside of him sometimes.

lawn chair+no shirt+cooler of beer near sidewalk and you don't have to worry about the dogs/owners walking down your sidewalk

In my neighborhood, this might attract new friends.

And before you go all Clint Eastwood "Get off my lawn" you probably should post a warning! :smile:

Id throw in a tooth pick or a piece of straw, jorts, and cowboy boots. But make sure you have a shotgun near by just for added badassness.

You could write them a note, but make sure that you spell the words correctly.

My bad Linden. Thought the grass looked a little dead. Didn't realize it was your lawn, otherwise I would've dropped my deuce in the toilet.

Re: Keeping Dogs off Propery (yes it is the offseason)

In all serious Linden, this all comes down to the dog owner. Any responsible dog owner should either carry a bag with them at all times or if you don't have one, go back and pick it up. Sounds like you have some idiots around you that make the rest of us look bad.

This. We have had our Dog for 3 years now, and all last year he never once pooped on our walks, so I finally thought maybe he had decided it was only appropriate to poop in the backyard. The FIRST time I decided to not take a bag with me on a walk, guess what?

That being said, once I returned home, I grabbed a bag and hopped in the car to go claim the poop.

Yeah, I agree. Most owners are really good about it, but there are some douchebags out there. Just wondered if something would deter dogs from my yard and have them go on to the next. Pepper, etc. I know some owners would be ticked with pepper being put down as it can really irritate a dog's nose.

GET OFF MY LAWN!!

Really though, whats the big deal? Yes, if the owners do not pick up the dog crap they are being ********. If you catch them leaving the turds behind give them a good *** chewing, if you do not catch them looks like you either have to clean up a few turds or just leave it for some good fertilizer. The people and dogs are just passing through, not moving in.

Why should I (or the OP) have to clean up somebody else's dog s**t?

Thanks for all the replies. If nothing else this thread is good for a laugh and some stories worse than mine.
