To be fair, there are a lot of good, responsible dog ow ers (yourself included) that do try to respect the homes/yards of their neighbors. Sadly, they blend in with the regular foot traffic and don't leave an impression like the potty patrol.
Actually, I do have one bit of data that you might be interested in. Personal observation on a day, pre-covid and high season. Corner lot with sidewalk. Spent the day at home. Nice weather. Counted doggie "restroom breaks" on our lawn and flower bed. Quit counting at 50. It was just coming up to 3 pm. There was more, but I had stopped counting.
You see, depending on where you live, you may not experience high volume of daily dumping, so it may seem like no big deal. But, I assure you, to many, it is can make you a little disappointed in your fellow man/woman.
Thanks for posting, although I am sure many would not believe your observations.

Problem is each poster only counts their dog visits to any property as the only visit to that property, posters know or don’t want to admit that lawns are used upwards of 50 plus times, in a day, by each person who walk their dog.
So your corner lot is used Far more than their dog uses their own property.

No wonder their lawn looks great and those corner lots look so sad.
