Default actually...

it is the offenders that are few and far between.... I'm sure we all agree that we LOVE the dogs, the owners "not so much", they are the ones with the BIG brain.... I sent a message to my village and asked all dog owners to be respectful of their neighbors and walk their dog at home, pet parks or common areas and I was amazed at how many e-mails I received from dog owners and many non-dog owners that applauded my note and hoped that the note would work. My neighbors would be shocked at how unhappy they are with their neighbor but choose to be a "silent majority". I'll ask the same question, Why, Why, would you do something, whether you believe it is right or wrong, that would make your neighbors upset. It is so much easier to enjoy life in paradise.

I will continue to walk my dog and if an accident happens, I will pick it up.

Actually, I think the complainers are few and far between. I have been walking my pup in TV for 6 years, have picked up many piles, and never, ever has anyone ever complained. Ever!

Also, my pup pees on my lawn every day...maybe 5 times a day. My lawn is one of the nicest in the neighborhood. No spots whatsoever. It's plush green.
