'No Pee Zone' sign on the grass between sidewalk and road = Ugly neighbors

[Anonymous]

I'm in the city and especially hate these in the tree boxes that contain nothing but a big tree and dirt. You haven't bothered to do jack with the spot, but you're bothering with a sign to keep dogs from peeing on the dirt patch? Get real.

The signs asking you to pick up are fine and realistic.

My neighbors grow vegetables in their tree box. But they are genuinely terrible people, so I think it’s hilarious when I see dogs pee on them.

Relax, OP. This is not worth your heart attack.

I have a dog, and don't mind some neighbors who do this. When they put up a sign on the verge, I don't let my dog pee there. Usually he gets my command on time, and pees elsewhere. Rarely, he's already going, and I can't stop him. I like the more sneaky neighbors who put up "treated lawn" signs, even though they haven't, and I avoid those verges too.

I'm a nice person and try to work with everyone's idiosyncrasies. Try it, instead of raging. It's better for your health.

We live in Arlington and when they put sidewalk in our neighborhood, we had to sign a letter saying, we no longer own the part of our yard from the sidewalk to the road.

But did they ever own it? Wasn't it always a right of way? How else could the county and utilities put up signs and posts there?

I have a mind to pull that piece of crap signage up and toss it in to the other part of your yard.

If you were trying to do a joke post making dog owners looks like self-involved bad people, congrats. 100/100.

When we laid new sod down, I asked folks to not let dog pee on it. It would have killed it and it's expensive.

In your yard or in the verge?

You laid down sod in the grass strip between the sidewalk and the street?

We don’t even maintain that grass ourselves. Our HOA pays a landscaping company to do it, so we are paying for it with our HOA dues, but nobody considers it their personal property.

Does Arlington mow and mulch that part of the yard?

Not OP but agree. Not my favorite thing but most owners clean up and as noted that strip doesn’t belong to them. The signs attract male dogs, so it defeats the purpose.

We do not have a dog and don’t like dogs. We have kids. Many people don’t like kids. When I take my kids to the park I don’t let them jump on you or piss and poop on your lawn. They are trained. Train your dog to piss and poop on your lawn. Then take your dog for a walk.
You’re right. Your dog is free to crap on my lawn and then dig up my lawn trying to bury it. You are absolutely right. Why not, everyone else does.
If you don’t train your dog, I will.

We’re not talking about people’s yards.

Poor doggie gonna have some hot paws and a sore butt. Homeowner maintains that strip of grass and is free to use chemicals that can be potentially toxic and dragged into your house. Sweet doggie kisses on baby are darling.
Humans can be such (totally correct) morons.
