If city, county, town, municipal maintained, maybe. Homeowners maintain that strip you're talking about between street and their yard.

I put up a little QR code and a sign that says the rental fee if your dog pees or poops on my lawn. Please clean up after your dog and make a patient that is donated to the animal shelter. I'm sure dogs are using the lawn without paying but I've gotten$50 so far

Wow 15:53 a rental fee to let your dog pee or poop? Are people this desperate to own a dog? The ones who have their own yard should be tRAINInG the dog to pee or poop there. Those without a lawn, work with your apartment or condo manager to have an area or two for your dog. Yuck to those who think it's okay to let their dog pee and poop on others' lawn

Well yes we do but other side of the sidewalk is better than edge of our main lawn!
We have been spot patching peed on places there for decades. We let the grass strip go.

Amazing. We put up a no pee or pooping please sign. It was stolen.
Replaced it, it was surrounded by dog poop.

As an owner I try to ensure my dogs finish their business before the walk, but they love to mark places.

- I always pick up #2.
- I keep the leash tight enough to pull them away from actual yards, using the strip of grass between the sidewalk and street when possible for #1.
- It's near impossible to stop a dog from marking favorite trees, mailboxes, and poles. Once one dog marks it, all the other join in.

This. But I’m guessing that OP lives in a neighborhood where there are no sidewalks and/or no strip of grass next to the street. In that case, I might let my dog pee on the very edge of the lawn, next to the street.

Train pooch on concrete or asphalt. Pee in the gutter.

Let your dog pee in the street. They don't need to pee on grass. People teach them to pee on those god-awful pee pads; they'll learn what they're taught.

Most people should not be ALLOWED to have a dog or be anywhere close to a dog. They said pandemic was over say bye to that dog.
