I agree with CFrance's post. I also walk my dogs in the middle of the street and do it when the streets are cooler in the early morning or evening. I don't let them go on anyone's lawn. I try to make them potty in their own yard before we leave for a walk but sometimes it happens on a walk so we pick it up. If it happens, it's in the street and not on someone's property. I also believe I don't have the right to go on anyone's property. I don't believe that grass is sacred, but I believe that what doesn't belong to me just simply doesn't belong to me and I don't have the right to have access to it for any reason if someone else owns it. I'm not looking for an argument, just stating my beliefs. I also felt this way before I moved to TV about other people's children playing in my yard or people walking their dogs in my yard.
