Default Here's the thing angel

My dog doesn't get it is YOUR lawn, he thinks it's our lawn. The grass feels better than the cement of the sidewalk or street, and there are many good
smells in the grass. My dog and I need exercise, if perchance he steps on your grass, I apologize and try to bring him back to the sidewalk immediately.
If he poops, I pick it up, if he pee's, I sprinkle water to dilute. My life as
a dog owner would be horrible if Fido had only to stay in my yard.

He is a big, robust, friendly guy who wants his nose to the ground and who is not able to pee or poop on command as hard as I've tried, and routinely he goes in my yard because it's more comfortable. But, he doesn't make
any judgments about you...the color of your house, the plants, your shutters, he just loves everything in his world. I will do my best to have him
tip toe along on the sidewalk, but he doesn't mean any harm I promise you, nor do I. I work hard at helping him to be, "man's best friend". My best friend alerted me to a murder on my street of a woman and her baby on an early, early morning walk, a long time ago. He had to go to court and show people how he does that. If you are in trouble and we happen by, he could tell me you need help and we could get you help...he doesn't want any thanks tho...just a place to doo if he has to on a walk. And I'll do my best to leave your yard exactly as we found it. Promise.
