NO. Of course not! Other people's yards should NOT be used as a bathroom for your dog. Definitely NO!

A few years ago when we still lived up north a woman I knew, also a neighbor down the street, could be seen walking her dog at ALL times of day in ALL kinds of weather. One day she and I encountered one another downtown and chatted. I commented on her tenacity of exercising in ALL kinds of weather or some such thing. She said "oh no, I'm not walking for my exercise---our dog won't go to the bathroom in our yard so I have to take him out for a walk!" It was then that it occurred to me that I'd seen the pooch relieving himself in all the other yards. It seemed o.k. for her to allow him to do that in other people's yards but never trained him to do it in hers. Why is it people thinks it's o.k. to let their animals do whatever they do wherever they want to do it???

I hope this would apply to cats as well. How long before this is the norm in all communities? Anyone think this is a good idea? Probably not the poopetrators.

Swimdawg, I know it's early, but this one made me laugh out loud! I'd like to put it up for consideration!

The government has to get involved in our lives so much because so many people do the wrong thing. If everyone made sure all the poop was picked up then no one would be complaining! Yada..yada..yada
