Do some people have NO respect?????  

Yeah, it is pretty tacky to leave something like that in someone else's yard. We no longer have our dog, but I sometimes take care of a friend's dog when she is out of town, and I make sure that I keep a plastic bag with me. It isn't exactly pleasant to have to pick it up, but I'd feel so guilty leaving it there! The last time I was taking care of my friend's dog, I took her for a very quick walk one evening and forgot to grab a plastic bag. I didn't realize it until I was pretty far down the road, so I decided to just make it a quick walk and hope that the dog didn't go! Of course, she did end up going in someone's yard, so after we got back to the house, I got a plastic bag and ran back down the street to find the house where she pooped! lol I felt pretty silly, but at least I took the time to go back and clean it up!

I, thankfully have a fence around my yard and don't have to put up with this.. Our dog has never been in another persons yard, only in ours and if she is in the part that we congregate in, we clean it up, but most of the time she goes in the woods, which is in our yard but a part that we hardly ever go into.. This is a matter of respect for others.. We do flea markets, most of them outside and the owners have had to enact a no pets policy because of this particluar reason.. People bring their dogs and walk them, if the dog does it business, they walk on and just leave it, even if it is in front of your table, many times the dogs have p**d on people merchandise, but most of the dog walkers do not care.. We have had several confrontations with the dog owners but they just walk on, so they can thank themselves that they can no longer bring their dogs with them.. It is not my responsibility to clean up after another persons animals, just mine..

Oh my gosh I hate that! We just moved out of a house in a neighborhood - and I swear...this one guy - heavy set guy and he had some little dog, and he would walk by just as my daughter left from dropping of GD. Literally every day that guy would walk this dog and Literally every day, this dog would poop and/or pee in my yard! I finally called out to him and asked him to stop allowing his dog to do that in my yard. He argued with me about how he can't demand the dog not do that and I told him, then you walk him around in your yard until he does his business then you walk him down the street! It stopped for a little bit, but then started up again.

Another lady had a large dog, did the same thing, this one was just before my daughter dropped GD off -and she is hauling a load in for the child and her belongings, last thing she needs to do or be concerned about is stepping in dog crap. So I called out to her too - don't let you dog do it in my yard, please. She said something, didn't understand it but she didn't walk past my house anymore!

No respect. I live in apts now and there is a dog run, but htey just let the dogs do it right out here, and dont pick it up. Complain to the management and they do nothing. Oh well.

GRRR! I hate that!!
We lived in the country before and the neighbors let their BIG dog run loose. He would come to our yard and relieve him self. Of course we know that BIG dogs leave BIG piles and he would back up to my potted plants and leave a gift in them. OR he would squat on the pavers that lead to the door so we would step in it if we went out in the dark. Our dog is a doxie so I know those piles didn't come from her, they were as big as her!!
We are in town now and our dogs relieve themselves in the back yard and I rake it up and dispose of it every few days. I also would hate for it to get steped in and deposited in the house!

Well, we also have a dog and he when we walk him he sometimes leave dog poo on other people's front yard. And, like you, I always bring a shovel and some plastic bag to pick up my dog's poo. It's just unfortunate that other people don't have the mentality that we have. I suggest you try and catch the culprit so he could get what's coming to him.

I don't have a dog myself, but we live in one of the few apartment buildings in the area that allow dogs. Outside the front is an area where dog owners can take their dogs to do their business. One of the rules of the building is that owners clean up their dogs mess before they come back inside. The building even left a receptacle out there for owners to dispose of it safely. The thing is, owners aren't clearing up their dogs mess.

This has led to our building manager putting a notice up on the bulletin board saying that anyone caught not clearing up their dogs mess will be fined $50. Repeat offenders will be evicted. I personally think this is a good idea. In theory. In practice it sucks, because nobody is watching to see whether owners are clearing up their dogs mess or not. Dog poop is not the kind of thing people want to see when they arrive home on a night!

Yes I have seen some persons , who have no respect for any one in his/her life ....

and this is not good for any thing ....

Thanks !!!

I have no idea why dog owners will let their dogs poop anywhere and they don't clean it up. Then other people and animals have to step it in and track it all over the place. It's absolutely disgusting and just completely disrespectful. And yes, especially letting your dog poop in someone else's yard and not picking up after it is absolutely ludicrous.

It really is a shame that some dog owners would have no respect for someone else's property. It is very unfair for the house owners to clean after the mess of somebody else's dog.

I have a total of 8 dogs but none of them walk outside the property since they have plenty of play spaces in the property. They will take care of their business outside the house and then go back after they are finished. We would immediately cleaned it up so it wont smell. But we also have neighbors with their own set of dogs. But unlike us, they have to walk their dogs outside. This is when the problem start. They would just leave the poop in front of property. When we caught them, we confront them. It might cause some disagreement and a fall out between us neighbors. But I can't help it. Just have to let them know that they have to respect each and everyone's spaces.

Having a dog is like having a child. You have to assume responsibility. You would not dare leave your childs poop on somebody else's yard.

I agree that people nowaday do not have any respect. They should train their dogs to do it own things in their respective premis and not in others property. It makes me sick to see dog poop in front of my house even though I do not own dogs. The municipal authorities should formulate some kind of regulations banning dogs pooping on peoples properties.
