and if you are in a villa and do not have any grass anymore, then dig up some of that stone mulch and plant some lawn specifically for the dog. thank you.

I am truly sorry you are having problems with a pet in your neighborhood. I do have to say that other than your property, all the other grassy areas you mentioned are all common areas to be shared by all residents. I as a dog owner have just as much rights as any non-dog owner to use these areas. Remember the uproar over the Tamarind Grove postal area not allowing dogs -- that didn't last long and once again dogs are allowed to walked in that area.
To say we aren't portrayed as a "dog friendly community" all you have to do is watch the video in the last v-mail. I think it does indicate we can walk our dogs in all common areas not just the dog parks.
