No pee no poop signs . For dog owners only ?
 

When you see these NO signs on a neighbors lawn do you avoid that lawn and respect their property? Or do you feel you have the right to use their lawn anyway? Trying to understand the villagers mindset of those neighbors who use the lawn anyway.

Your not serious are you?????

Check your deed restrictions for easements and signage restrictions. Should answer your question.

1 - Gotta love your ingenuity of not only resurrecting for the umpteenth time a dog poop thread but spicing it up with Pee (a Lake Sumter classic also).
2 - Wait about a New York minute before a dog owner's response will be the first "X" feet from the road into your yard is an easement and not your property.
3 - A long time from now archeologists will dig up all these plastic bags with preserved dog poop and wonder why did those crazy humans in this settlement want to giftwrap and save feces.

So. These signs are directed for the dog not to pee or poop on the lawns so marked? Ohh.

Dogs are royalty and should be treated as such.
Humans are the mere servants to fetch food and dog-poop-scoop.

Can't you make it home to use your own bathroom?

Why oh why, another DA dog poop thread.
75 posts coming.......

Can tell you "some" definitely do NOT let the sign stop them, and YES they do believe they have the right for their dogs to deposit anywhere, EXCEPT on their own lawns of course. Relative in well known Arkansas active life style community tells me they, and most residents walk their dogs around their own lawns as much as it takes to get their "business" done, then, and ONLY THEN, does the dog get to go on a walk past the property of others or to one of the dog parks. WHY this is not SOP in The Villages, who knows ? Yes, it is some kind of mind set together with an arrogant lack of respect and "common" decency ? Remember, some of these are same folks who fill the waste cans at the postal stations/swimming pools with dog filth in the hot summer sun despite large signs asking PLEASE not to do this (the smell is... well, you can smell it just sitting by the pool), and yet nothing stops people. I think many do not want "that" kind of thing in their own garbage to smell up the place maybe ? Who knows what gets into the minds of some folks !

Which is the greater violation. Placing signs on the lawn which is against deed restrictions, or allowing your dog to poop on someones lawn and then you pick it up which is what is recommended by TV districts and there are no deed restrictions disallowing this. Dogs, both male and female, pee and poop on my lawn several times every day including my own dog and there has never been any damage to my St. Augustine lawn from the pee or poop. I try to walk my dog on the common areas along the main roads but I still have walk past homes to get there and sometimes he just pulls onto a lawn and unloads which I always pick up and take home to my odorless poop container and then to the garbage on garbage day. I don't like it if someone walks their dog well up into my lawn but don't mind it if they only go in a couple feet as long as they pick it up. Cigarette butts that people toss into my lawn are more of a PITA to me or even worse landscapers that are working across the street parking in front of my house with their tires on my lawn, that does cause damage and often damages my irrigation heads. Landscapers wise up, park where you are working and damage their lawns.

My dog can't read, so................

Yeah. The easement argument is an old, lame one. Easements are still the property of the lot owner, and they are for specific uses identified in the easement documents, not for the general use of the public.

:doggie:

As an aside, wonder how much longer "1984" will be available ? Will it be the next to be banned, and go on the $500 and up a copy list like the some Seuss books, Raspail's Camp of the Saints, and others ? Will "1984" or Fahrenheit 451 be next, what do you think ? We used to actually laugh at the "fantasy" of these back when they were on the required list in most high schools in our state.... Ha, ha, ah, oooops, not so funny as time goes on !

I did a search on how many threads have been started containing the word "poop".

- 51 threads contain the word poop in the title
- 1337 responses were given across those 51 threads
- Thousands of views across those 51 threads. Too many that I care to count.
- The highest number of views for any one thread is 17668. That honor goes to the thread "We're in deep poop". Which was not about dog poop but dare I say politics.
- The second highest number of views goes to thread "Please, just one more dog poop dilemma" with 15218 views. Guess who the OP of that poop thread was - Bunny1! Hint look at post number one of this thread.

I can spend 20 minutes walking my dogs in circles around my yard and then during a walk around the neighborhood one of them decides to do her business in someone else's yard. Unless I walk them down the middle of the street it's going to happen from time to time. I always pick up their droppings and as long as anyone else who's dog picks my yard does the same, I'm good. I have one neighbor (at our primary house) that walks her dog down her sidewalk and driveway and straight across the street to my grass before slowing down to let her dog go, BIG difference and I don't blame anyone for reacting negatively to that kind of behavior! Of course, our neighborhood Facebook page discusses these kinds of things and even alerted a kid's mom that her son was allowing their full size Poodle to go in other people's yards and not pick it up. Got it stopped.

I think she is saying dog owners can pee and poop there.

No matter where we are The Villages or not, we walk our dog in the street and do not let her on people’s front lawns, signs or not. When we get to common area like outside the walls of a Villa then the grass is open, sign or not.

Motion activated sprinkler instead?

Just installed 4 of these motion-activated sprinklers. It was simple to do and should stop the problem we've been having on and off for 5 years.

The sprinklers were from HAVAHART, they won't injure the animal and the animal won't injure my lawn. I don't think I'd even mind that much if the people picked up after their dogs. They make no attempt at all. I can't wait for the first one to learn a lesson. I have a camera from the house to the sprinkler area. It is very discreet.

If people respected other people's property then there wouldn't be a need for so many of these threads. The Villages is gonna Double in size. I guess your gonna get double the amount of these threads. :doggie: WOOF!

THat's what they want you to think...

Paintball gun.

That is precisely what we do as well. I'm very respectful of property but things happen.

We have a lamppost in front of our side yard that is visited frequently and we are fine with that.

For fear of another poop post ranting, please pick up after your dog because we won't. And why is it always a good sized poop?

The number of threads should indicate how important this topic is to home owners... and unless the behavior is changed, this topic is not going to go away.

Each thread is just a repeat of the same old posts..........will not change behavior.

Understood, but I can promise that people will not stop trying, it’s like a thorn in the side, the irritation does not go away. Home owners literally pay thousand of dollars and more for their lawns upkeep every year. Not because they want their property to be treated as a liter box.

And before someone mentions bird poo etc, motion sprinklers work on them too.

Letting your dog crap on someone's lawn is a much, much greater violation.
