The reality is, you cannot time when a dog does what a dog does... One problem "non-dog owners" are missing is that when the sun beats down on the street, the temp can cause serious burns to a dog's feet. Try walking barefoot just off your driveway if you don''t believe me. Walking along the edge of the grass is the only safe place for them. And I agree, those who don't clean up after their dogs are jerks.

It took 20 posts but best advice.

If you are in the easement, you are not on "their" property though. While they may mow it, maintain it, sit on it, roll in it, etc., it's not theirs. They can't build on it or put anything permanent on it. They might think it's theirs, it ain't. The setbacks are a lot further back than most people realize. I don't let my dog go into other folk's yards, so I'm not defending that behavior. Turning on a sprinkler if people are walking past is something a real @33!@#$ would do. Karma has a way of costing people money though. Toggling it on and off all the time like that and the valves might stop working(rodents chewing the wires attracted by the cool water in the valves) and the heads might just fall apart, almost like someone hit them with a hammer. |

People walk their dogs because it is necessary and fun for the dog. Walking on the concrete is cooler and, at least in the designer homes, you do not own the property from the curb to about 13 feet in. As to “forcing” a dog by pulling him out onto the road, yikes, nasty. Picking up after your dog is the issue. Address it politely and hope it works, then you can go further if it doesn’t.

First off, let me say that I feel for disabled folks, and I am sorry if they end up with unpleasant surprises when they venture about UN-escorted.
That said, as far as anyone else is concerned I would not take issue if someone took a hose to a dog (and/or the dog owner)on their lawn. Another note: I love animals and especially dogs, but I would NEVER allow my dog to go on someone else's property. For those that have motion operated sprinklers, I would be interested in where you obtained them and how you like them. What is totally rude and unacceptable is those that take their dogs for a walk and will allow them to defecate at their next door neighbors yard, right after leaving their own property. My neighbor has NEVER even once had their dog drop on their own lawn, never. As a matter of fact, my neighbor once asked me to let them know when I treated my lawn with any chemicals so that they would not injure their dog when it went on my lawn. Don't know about you, but that seems like someone is asking a bit too much. Let me reiterate, I love animals. But, you have no right to use my lawn as a bathroom. I put quite a bit of money and effort into making my lawn look nice and do not wish to smell or step into landmines left by folks that refuse to allow their animals to dirty their own lawns. If that makes me a bad person, then I can live with it. As far as I am concerned, taking advantage of someone else's charity, generosity or just good nature is being an example of the substance left by their animals. And for the dummy that walks (?) their dog by driving beside it in a golf cart while it is leashed, you do not deserve to own a pet and should be reported to the humane society. If you are disabled, then get someone to walk the dog for you. This is not National Lampoon's Vacation where people laugh at the sight. Warning: Do not bother complaining to me if my sprinkler (that sprinkles my property) gets you wet if you are trespassing. |

Same thing
We had one of them in our area, when they finally moved they went around and wrote up 29 house for violating the decoration standards. She also turned on sprinklers. We even tried to be nice to them complimented them on landscaping, but some people are just jerks.
QUOTE=MaryShields;2015479]Our neighbors need advice. We live in Monarch Grove and have a wonderful group of people living on our block of Gonzalez Lane. One of our neighbors is an issue. They watch people walking their dogs and remotely turn on their sprinkler system whenever people walk by. We have an elderly lady with dementia who regularly gets doused as she walks her small dog. 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.[/QUOTE] |

Yep this confirms that there are petty boring people here with nothing else to do but spy on neighbors walking their dog and someone waring to water their lawn. How dumb can one get?

OMG! Motion sprinklers, what a great idea to **** off the neighbors! Hopefully they also activate when it's raining. I hope our new neighborhood is not like this! Unbelievable!!!! |
