Ruh, Roh... You just said "BeetleJuice" 3 times... Take cover for the onslaught that will be released...

My dog pees in our yard, multiple times a day... Nary a burn mark anywhere...

She must have "magic" pee...

In San Francisco, it's not the dog poop that's the problem... :yuck::yuck::yuck:

Especially the miniature ones!

Poor neglected dog.
 

Dogs bark due to lack of care, illness, attention and training. Hope the animal control shelter was a no kill? Poor pup, punishing the animal is not the answer, helping it is by giving it a chance for a better life. When you see most dogs and cats in TV, they are mostly rescues and lucky enough to get a second chance for a better life. My brother says when he passes away he wants to come back as a Villages Pet because he will live his best life then. Thanks to all TV pet owners for giving our loyal best friends a good life!

Northerners?
 

We have been here two years and don't understand the negativity about Northerners? I have lived all over the country and find the people the same everywhere, most are nice and some are not. I think it depends on how you are treated as to how kindness can be returned. In this time of our lives we all need lots of kindness and positive interactions.

May invite crime
 

A village without dogs, would invite crime. It is proven that a robber is not going to break into a home if there is a barking dog. He will go to the quiet house or village where there is no chance of a dog alerting its owners.

I always make sure my dog pees before he leaves my property and hopefully poops before I walk him. But I will never allow him to poop on someone’s lawn that would bother me too. And if someone’s dog pooped on my lawn and he didn’t pick it up that would be terrible.
I doubt the OP was suggesting that is what he wants. I also don’t think it’s a bad if idea for people who don’t like animals to have a pet free village. And I doubt it would ever happen here in the villages.

What an aggravating thread. If this was weighing heavily on your mind I hope you satisfied your need to mix it up on this subject. Did you make any progress with your dream neighborhood?

I would keep a close watch on this individual if he or she is your neighbor. I guess it’s your right to post this garbage. I’m sorry I wasted my time responding and reading the entire thread. Live & Learn.

Thank you for the laugh of the day…. right, a dog is a real deterrent. There are so many ways to stop a dog from being an issue in a break in.

And this is absolutely false. The fact that an easement exists on YOUR property does not make it any less your property. It only means you have agreed to grant access to it (limited and specific) to another entity or entities. In our case the utilities companies. It is still your owned property, not just your responsibility to care for. This is a misinterpretation that needs to stop being perpetuated as it encourages others to think of your ownedproperty as community property, which it is not.

What Is An Easement In Real Estate?

An easement is defined as the grant of a nonpossessory property interest that grants the easement holder permission to use another person's land. Easement itself is a legal term for a type of property right held by the users of the easement.

Thank you! You are correct.
There are towns where property butts up to a sidewalk that has a grass verge on the other side of it next to the street. If they lived in a place like that, that may be where they picked up their misinformation. Either that or they just like to stir the pot for their own amusement.

Or, maybe they just want to justify their decision to walk their pooch through your yard by telling themselves it is community property and they have the right to do so.

Who knows? Either way, you bought it and pay taxes on it and you own it.

What about a village without stupid people?
