[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not advocating poisoning anyone's dog. I used to work at a vet's office, and it was not uncommon for dogs to come in with poisoning and the owner would say they were worried about a neighbor who really hated their dog. It happens, so I don't understand why all you dog lovers would advocate that OP go to war with her neighbor over the dog's right to poop on other people's yards. It makes all the rest of us conscientious dog owners look terrible.

I think most of us dog lovers aren't advocating going to war. I think most of us - at least in my experience - would prefer not to have a confrontation.

And I also think your story proves why poisoning is not only horrific and illegal, but not effective. Because the dogs don't know that a criminal neighbor trying to kill them means they shouldn't poop on that yard. And the owners can't be sure what's going on.

So just put up a fence. Or a sign. Or a sprinkler. Something that might actually have the effect everyone wants without the police getting involved.[/quote]

I agree.  I love my dogs but I have no idea of someone is sitting at their window silently seething inside their home as my dog and I walk by their house on our daily walk..plotting to put poison outside the next time.  That is really unhinged and no need to allow yourself to get to that point.  Put a damn sign out, turn your sprinkler on.

I'm just out enjoying the fresh air and sunshine...getting in some exercise with my 4 legged family member.  You have no right to hurt either one of us.[/quote]
