I am among those dog lovers who thinks it is presumptuous for any dog owner to allow their pet to use any lawn other than their own for its bodily functions.

Whether it leaves spots, kills grass, or is picked up is irrelevant....it's bad behavior!!!

The Villages IS Pet friendly; just not lovers of bad behavior.

Just another expression that some people think rules of good and lawful behavior do not apply to them.

Maybe it was the way you talked to him?

While female dogs just need one good pee, male dogs MARK. My dog lifts his leg about 20 times on a walk. The first 10 times are at the park then we make are way around the block where he finds 10 more places to leave his scent. The only thing is, by pee #11 he is empty. So, what appears to be a pee, is actually just a dramatization

A generous sprinkle of cayenne pepper along the curb, and the problem is solved

I was completely non confrontational, even offered him a bag to use to pick it up. No man should ever verbally assault a woman that way, even if he was offended by being caught in his own game.

You definitely don't want this little guy anywhere near your grass or trees.

Hum... tracable plates! I can just see the sceniaro:
  • Place the crap in an empty brown lunch bag.
  • Twist top of bag
  • Trace the plates and go to the house of the pooch's owner.
  • Place the bag on their porch.
  • Set top of bag on fire.
  • Ring the doorbell and run like a dog being chased by Fumar...!

The Villages is extremely pet friendly. But what is my property is not yours....to pollute and deface as your dog pleases.

If I move to The Villages, will I start to worry about trivial things like dog pee and bicycle riders breaking minor traffic laws? I hope not, I was hoping to be busy doing fun stuff and activities.

Agreed andSorry, I didn't mean to imply that such behavior is EVER Correct. I am a dog owner and she never uses anyone's property. I always use my own yard and I pick up immediately after, bag it and deposit in my trash can. When I take her to a park I also bag it and use a trash can. MY remark about unfriendly villagers was only because of some of the comments and the fact that some go on and on about a subject! Sounds alittle unfriendly to me!!

Just an aside...and actually it's kind of funny. My brother in law used to have two very large, very pooping rotties. He'd pick up their deposits in a plastic bag and then deposit all the smaller bags into a large black plastic bag. Every once in a while, he'd throw the large, very heavy black plastic bag into the bed of his pickup and take it to the community dumpster. Well, one day someone decided that whatever was in the beds of pick up trucks in his area was going to be stolen. LOL...the black bag with all the doggie doo was one of the items stolen. Boy was that loot going to surprise someone when they opened the bag!
