I’ve seen you twice now, traipsing through my yard with your dog. What the fuck is wrong with you? The first time I was standing in my living room window and I saw you and your dog walking a good 6 feet into my lawn from the sidewalk, acting as if it’s perfectly fine and normal to treat someone’s lawn as if it was a public space. The second time I drove by and pulled into my driveway as your dog was at the far end of the leash on my lawn and you were just about to walk into my backyard. When you finally actually noticed me there, you slinked away because you KNEW you were in the wrong.
I understand, as a dog owner, that your dog has to shit and piss SOMEWHERE, and that place is usually on grass, but please keep it to the edges as much as possible. I bought this house, which means I also own the yard, and I frankly don’t want strangers wandering all over it. Just because there is a bus stop there doesn’t mean there is an open invitation to hang out all over my property.
YES I am looking into getting a fence but is a surprisingly expensive and time consuming undertaking. If luck is on my side I will have a fence around my property within the month and I can kiss your rude ass goodbye as I blow kisses to you from my deck. —Sick of your dog’s shit
