Default Inconsiderate people

I can't get over the ignorance of some people. I just had a woman walk her dog into my back yard and between houses for her dog to take a crap.
I informed her that she was not on common property , that it was private property belonging to me and my neighbor. She acted as if it were no big deal, stating that she was visiting a friend down the street, and that she also lives in TV.She should have let the dog crap in her friends yard.
Well shouldn't she be aware of the nature of our existence here.
All dog owners should be shocked and distressed by this woman's actions.
No excuse for this kind of behavior.

I agree, one should not walk their dogs on someone else's property. Having said that, years ago we solved a "problem child" who walked her dogs and let them on people's property (and not just on the edge of the lawn, she allowed the retractable lead to play out so the dogs were a good 10-15 feet this woman lived, took our dogs to her property and let our dogs return the favor. We cleaned up after our dogs, but the homeowner was mad that we let our dogs on her property. She got the message-at least we never saw her walking her dogs in our neighborhood.

Just turn on a sprinkler from your hose.

Next time walk outside with a box of Kleenex and tell the idiot to pick up Fido's "business" and carry it back with her.

This is a BIG hot button for me personally. I live on a corner lot near the front of a subdivision. It is NOT ok for your dog to step on even a single blade of grass let alone take a dump or pee on my lawn.

I've been quiet since I'm "the new guy" but I'm over it. I'm going to light these people up.

CURB YOUR DOG AND STAY OFF MY LAWN UNLESS YOU'RE READY FOR A CONFRONTATION!

How would you like to see these 4 pooping on your lawn in the Villages? Just my humorous attempt to step out of the poo.

Of course, I have never seen a 25 or so ft bowhead whale bone on a Villages lawn. This is actually a site outside of an Alaskan Iñupiaq village where they dump whale bones which attract polar bears.

There would not be any need for this if people used good judgement. YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO WALK THROUGH SOMEONE ELSE'S PROPERTY WITHOUT CONSENT.. And especially to let your pet defecate on their lawn.

You can run but you cannot hide...
From a dog poop thread, just bein' snide.
Discussion will follow ad infinitum
With plastic bags and advice we will greet 'em.

Those poor furry creature are maligned
If in their yards they are not confined
To do their business, their poop, their pee.
It's the owners who make us all angry.

We will talk, and evaluate discuss and cuss.
We will come to the same conclusions and we will fuss
At the people who let their sweet puppies go
and poop at the mail drop, others yards and...whoah.

We will then talk about keeping pups from the square
And say we moved here and it just isn't fair
That you have dogs and we don't like 'em.
Especially when your dog's legs they hike 'em

ON OUR stuff, so go and keep 'em away
From where we walk and talk and play
And don't let them pee on our palm trees.
This ain't what we dreamed of, so curb 'em please.

You are welcome.

And...please read my poem carefully. I don't have a dog but I like dogs but noone likes inconsiderate dog owners and since you are new, you may not know that this very subject is often discussed.

Kind wishes,
Gracie

2 nights ago in Glenbrook, while picking up our mail, I saw a woman walking her small dog without a plastic bag on her hand. I mentioned this to my husband. As I was walking to our box, I saw a black car with no driver in it. Yes, you guessed it. A few moments later, she walked from the back with her dog and got into her car to drive away.

I was angry and my husband said that she wouldn't do this on her property; I stated that her neighbors were probably watching, as well.

Question: Is it all right to say something to these people? I really get tired of seeing people do this, yet get away with it because no one says anything. Grumble, grumble.

Really like this. I have not had any urge to write a song/poem about something on TOTV for quite some time. Thank God I do not have to do one about doggy doo doo.
