You really need to realize how trivial this is to get so worked up over it. Maybe you need a home outside of the villages where you can have a fence. I know you seriously feel this is a big deal, but in reality, it's not. You are going to make yourself sick if you keep stressing over this.

In my neighborhood, it has never been an issue. We have a lot of dog walkers. The dogs might have an accident and it is always promptly picked up.
When the temps are in the 90's, the dogs can NOT walk on the pavement, and weather you like it or not, they will inch on to the lawn directly next to the street to keep their pads from the hot pavement. Take my picture, have me arrested, make me a "breaking news".....I could care less. And if my dog has an accident, I will promptly pick it up.

I agree with Gerryann. Walking your dogs on the burning pavement is unfair.
That is why we take our dogs daily to the private dog park just north of CR 466.
