One person pm'd me to say thanks for starting a previous poop thread. She said it had never occurred to her until she read the posts that people might object to her dog toileting in their yard.

I've always hated these threads bashing (what sometimes feels like all dog walkers), when only a few of them disrespect others' properties. But perhaps there is a need for these threads after all. Could it really be true that some people think it's OK to walk their dogs walk half way up your lawn to poop?

No, I really don't see how anyone would need to have that pointed out to them!! Unless you were raised in a Zoo, common courtesy should keep dog walkers away from private property, on the sidewalk, or in dog parks and public areas.
