I hate to just say the same as others but I truly find in amazing that folks see no issue with their dogs in others yards, doing their business. I am also uncomfortable telling folks to knock it off, as they are neighbors and I have not figured out a way to suggest this without being perceived as a jerk.

I am a dog owner, love my dog, love other dogs, but would be very embarrassed if she veered off and quickly squatted while on a walk. In my area dogs are walked like kites with 15 - 30 feet of line, peeing, barking, etc.

None of this is the dogs fault, IMO there is a high percentage of dog owners that should own fish.....
