I would be appalled if my dog went on someone's yard. She is held on a short lead when it's not Ok to sniff around and go. She is released on full lead...5 feet or so, when she is in an appropriate area. She understands when she is and is not allowed to go.
She pees in the yard, her own yard, readily but resists pooping at home. At this point she is walked mostly on unbuilt lots or I take her in the car to a field outside TV. She is not allowed to stand on someone else's yard without their ok. I don't get why people let their dogs walk on private property??

There are not many places to go and fences are not allowed so the problem is situationally challenging but there is no excuse for violating private property.
I hope your post will be read by offending dog owners and that they will be less likely to give the rest of us a bad name, but I don't expect any to confess.
