They don't just let them, they encourage/urge them.
Trespassing, dumping raw sewage on a neighbor's property (picking up the larger more solid evidence but leaving behind the residue) is irresponsible dog ownership. It is disgusting to observe. It is disrespectful to your neighbors. It shows a sense of (here is that word) entitlement, to subvert your neighbor's property for your own selfish use. Your neighbor's yard is not a public dog park/toilet. Unless you have been invited, keep off the grass and out of the flower beds.
And before you call me a dog hater, know that I have had 8 dogs of various breeds, mostly large, in the course of my 74 years. I love dogs but hate irresponsible insensitive dog owners who think that because they have a dog the rules of common courtesy and respect for other people's property does not apply to them.

Seriously....
 
I thought I moved to TV to get away from petty complaining. Don’t like my chimes, maybe I don’t like your cigarette smells, cigar smells, the sound of your chugging golf cart. If you notice most of the homes are close together. Maybe farther out in the country with a lot of land around you. I love my home here. And by the way I like it’s a small world.

I have to agree that the wind chime sounds, barking dogs & etc. does bother me. It doesn’t bother me if I hear the noises once in a while but wind chimes seem to go on forever. My hearing has been affected by my Menieres Disease so background noises seem to echo in my head which causes me to have severe headaches . I know that is my problem but as we age some background sounds do affect elderly people more. Close living is not easy. I applaud the ladies husband of being considerate of their neighbors. If we all would just take the time to consider how our actions would affect others around us. Not picking up your dogs poop ruins it for everyone that does. It is very disturbing when I see dog poop laying anywhere on the ground. Hot summer months the poop smells terrible. No one should have to deal with it. I love taking my dog everywhere. I am condiderate of others by training her not to bark, picking up her poop, & she is in a stroller when going into stores. My dog has never been turned away because they know she is well behaved and I am a considerate dog owner. Those who are not should be turned away. Same goes for children. Their misbehaving, screams and running around stores & crowded areas is very annoying. I am not perfect but I was raised to be considerate of others. I know others appreciate it as well.

Right on! Very annoying and inconsiderate.

Sounds like some people need to learn to relax. Wind chimes are one of the most calming sounds in the universe.

My daughter thinks death metal music at full blast is one of the most calming sounds in the universe.

Yep, tropical storm winds down here light breeze in oklieland.

OH, yes there is....

Have a pair of ✂?
