See OP - I was with the other side until posters like this. What you need is a motion sensor jet spray like this one: $42. well spent. Done and done. https://www.amazon.com/Hoont-Garden-Motion-Activated-Blaster/dp/B078R6PRZ6/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2UZSN4YUHWLYW&keywords=motion+sensor+jet+spray&qid=1663281086&sprefix=motion+sensor+jet+spray+%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-4 |

If you are in DC, the city owns the tree boxes. My dog loves to pee on the stupid vulgar signs - and if he is peeing there, it means another dog did too.
I do not let him go on nicely planted areas. If you are smart, use large planters, so the dogs pee on those instead of the plants. I also wear shoes inside. |
| You do realize that animals just do their business when they need to, right? Deer, squirrels, birds, etc. you sound like a type a crazy person. |
| Let’s just call this what it is and say it’s a dog person vs non dog person thing. There’s no way OP has ever had a dog. They literally live to mark their territory. Yes I will keep my dog from your nice flowers, but only people who don’t actually like dogs find it “disrespectful.” Its just a cultural difference, like how some people find it disrespectful to look you in the eye or to have your hair uncovered. |
Yes, must be cultural. I think purposefully taking your animals to crap on my lawn and use it as a toilet is disrespectful. And the fact that so many people feel entitled to use my yard as a toilet is the height of disrespect. Why don’t you dog owners just use your own yards if it’s such a nonissue? |
Tell me you've never had a dog without telling me you've never had a dog lol. They don't operate like this, especially male dogs that mark on walks. |
Nope. Extendable leases = don't give a d@mn dog owners. |
Actually it is trespassing. Would you like a toilette training toddler to crap and piss in your yard? |

This weekend I saw a lady let her giant dog pee ALL OVER the sidewalk sign outside a sidewalk cafe in our neighborhood, with tons of people sitting right there at tables. It was utterly disgusting and there's a park literally right across the street. So freakin' rude and gross.

You bought a dog in a city - it's your job to train it. Curb your dog. https://www.petguide.com/petcare/dog/tidy-tips-on-curb-training-in-the-big-city/#:~:text=Curb%20training%20simply%20involves%20teaching,cleaned%20regularly%20with%20street%20sweeping. |
Omg. Have you lived in a city where people do this? It's DISGUSTING. At least using the tree boxes you don't have your sidewalks and curbs covered in shit and piss. |
OMG I really hope I live in your neighborhood so I can witness the meltdown when you try to call the cops on my dog for trespassing. What exactly do you expect them to do? Is Rin Tin Tin gonna drive up and put the cuffs on him? "That dog is trespassing, arrest him!" You'll be lucky if they don't put you on a 72 hour hold in the psych ward. Though reading your posts it would probably be helpful. |
I was a dog walker in NY during college. Ever try to scoop diarrhea off the street into a plastic bag? So gross and yes most of it gets left behind. |
except the vast majority of dogs that walk past my house don't stop and pee. The owners stop their dogs to pee at my house. Dog owners lie a lot and will make any excuse. I had an idiot try to say this to me. She is someone who never owned a dog before and pissed off a lot of people when she would let her dog go in people's yards. It's stupidity. |
I swear I know this person and she is certifiably insane. She loves to start drama with neighbors. |
