Good luck with that with Community Standards, better read your deed restrictions.

Everyone is very respectful and picks up any dog poop. Our scared neighbors automatically move to the other side of the street. We feel stalked and sad.

Unfortunately, that happens everywhere, there’s always a bad apple in ever subdivision! Even here where we live.

Not everyone is courteous about that either and it's a shame. Walk your dog around your own yard, then take it for a friendly stroll to meet the neighbors.

So this is exactly what we have always done and probably 95 times out of 100 it works like a charm, but dogs will be dogs and every so often they'll decide to go after they've left our yard during a walk around the neighborhood. We ALWAYS bring bags and pick up after them. It's a shame some people can't understand that these are animals that along with their owners need regular exercise. We do our best but a dog can start going before an owner has a chance to stop them and I've learned the hard way, once things start coming out they keep coming out even as you drag them into the road. I appreciate a perfect lawn as much as anyone, but just a tiny bit of 'live and let live' would go a long way in these situations. It's a shame there aren't designated 'Dog Friendly' or for that matter just 'Friendly' neighborhoods for people like us who'll 'within reason' go along to get along with our neighbors.

There is more to this story…
 
Notice how people are made out to be villains based on someone else’s weaknesses. The lady with dementia…with a small dog…targeted by a bad neighbor…lah dee dah. Yep, welcome to cancel culture. This person who posted should be a talking head for MSM.

Let’s put another spin on this one, just for fun. Generous neighbor spends his time and pays higher water bills so his sprinklers can be felt by his neighbors while they daily walking their dogs in the hot afternoon sun.

you know, it's water. he could put something a lot more harmful on HIS LAWN if you don't understand.

The family dog in Boston is 15 years old and just like most city dogs he goes on the concrete , he also still walks long distances although slower in the hot summer and cold winter never a problem with his paws just like all the other dogs we know and he’s never had a sweater on in winter,he acclimates him self just like people here should do instead of whining about how hot it is , I’m still walking ,”biking and some running at 82 in the afternoon EVERY DAYand shutting the AC off when I sleep and very rarely putting heat on and never when going to bed makes living here much more pleasant and the environment easier to handle

What’s the matter? You have trouble understanding nonsense, or something?

People should keep their animals out of other peoples yards

Wondering if he had a stroke or something and needs an emt.

Wow! Didn’t realize my post would spark such passion.
My error for stating the woman has dementia. She is just old, like ALL of us, and a bit frail. Interesting people picked up on that instead of the main topic. This neighbor shoots his sprinklers on every dog walker that strolls by his house. Stalked was another term that was misinterpreted. I guess when someone sits in their garage and watches for dog walkers or people parking too close to his lawn, yes that’s really weird. Get a life and be a neighbor. We live in a great hood:)

Yeah, sounds like a great hood. Again, why don’t people just walk on the opposite side of the street if “shooting his sprinklers on every dog walker” actually occurs? One would think if it happens constantly, walkers would have learned how to avoid this by now. And why add the dementia embellishment? Too much drama on Gonzalez.
