what do you do when your neighbor's pet keeps on ******** on your perimeter?

Yes, it's unacceptable to have him poop at your place. A nice talk with your neighbor might do the trick. At least they are cleaning it up. We have similar problems here. Unfortunately, our neighbor's dog is semi vicious and they do not clean up after it. It's nice around their own kids, but barks and growls at others to the point of trying to snap at them. Doesn't help that one of their girls told the dog to 'go get her' and send the dog towards one of my girls when she was angry at her. Then the dog came running, growling, barking its head off, everytime we stepped foot out of the door and the dog happened to be out. My husband always chased it away, sometimes with the hose. So the neighbor kids came and asked why he was treating the dog that way. He told them that the dog comes over as soon as we get out of the house and how the dog behaves and that the dog also poops and pees on our property. "oh he is not that way. He is nice around us. He just escapes sometimes when we open the door..." No excuse for sending the dog after our child. So my husband told them that if the dog comes over again he would call the dog catcher. Funny, now they can suddenly keep the dog away and on their property. It also finally has a collar, lol. Of course we get the evil eye and our kids are not allowed to play with the neighor's kids anymore or come near their property, which is fine with them because they had nothing but problems with those kids in the first place.

I would thank them for cleaning up the dog stuff, but ask them if they could please monitor the dog at night because you dont want to have to have dog poop left in your yard everyday. Thank them for their cooperation. They are probably trying to be responsible and would appreciate it if you were nice.

I would tell him to move the dog or even get a shorter tie out. If that does work, do you live somewhere that has a manager? I would write down the dates and of the days that you have told him and then if it can't be resolved, call the manager and show them that you have nothing againest the dog, it just needs to be moves, or even crated so the owner has to clean up the mess in his own place. That is not fair to you or your family to always have to look out before stepping out your door. There has to be a way to resolve this. If you don't have a manager to goto, think about calling animal control and ask for thier advice also. I think there is also a spray out that keep animals from coming in your yard. I am thinking it is called Bitter Barrier. Good luck and I hope this gets resolved for you SOON.

Hi dare2fail. Yes, that would piss me off also. Regardless, if he cleaned it up, why the heck is he letting him go there in the first place? You should first confront your neighbor about whats bothering you. About the barking, if he just got the dog maybe the dog is adjusting and that will stop.But, there is no excuse for the poop.(wow, poop,when was the last time Ive written that word?). Anyway, if you get along with your neighbor that might work. If you don't and he doesn't take action after talking to him, then personally,I would suggest for you to call the police to see if there is anything you can do.Hopefully, it wont come to that though! I myself, would probebly put somne throw away gloves on, get a napkin, then take that poop to his front door step and give him a taste of it frist hand if he didnt take care of the situation! Hope it works out for you, good luck!
