Urban living is great. I love this city and the people and their pets that inhabit it. However, why would you walk your large 4-legged beast and allow it to trample on people’s front lawns and their small city lot gardens. I live in a house close to the sidewalk, and I know people will inadvertently step on the lawn sometimes, but why must you allow your larger dogs to trample in my hostas and flowers. A simple tug on the leash people. Steer the animal to the lawn closer to the curbs, Sheesh. I have a dog and I would not allow him to wreak havoc in somebody’s garden like people seem to do to mine.

Oh fuck. I’m seeing visions of another “I can’t believe some people!” Sweet Jezebel.
You could knock on your window when you see them trampling the lawn or put a sign up saying, “Please keep off the grass.”
I cannot stand when people use the infamous lines:
“What is wrong with some people?”
“What’s wrong with the world today?”
“What’s the world coming to?” and
“What’s wrong with people in todays’ world?”
I pretty much agree with this bitch. It’s just ignorant to let your dog do that.
i am owned by a large dog who poops big and i always pick up and i only let him do it on the city side and he nevers gets to tiptoe through the tulips etc. of our citizens..he dosen’t give a shit he just shits…very reasonable bitch
This is probably happening because the owner has stopped going round Pooch Poo Park because of all the dog muck everywhere!
put shards of glass in your garden.
SOME dog owners just don’t care because they think everyone loves their dog.
“put shards of glass in your garden” aww no
its not the dogs fault
One of my ‘lovely’ neighbours let their dog shit in my yard, when I called him on it, he picked it up and chucked it into another neighbour’s yard! (because they have a dog)lol …some people…
Oh my!!
Sham Wow… you MUST be joking… you think the OP would prefer cruelty to a poor animal to having her garden trampled? No it is NOT the dog’s fault.. but the owner’s… Perhaps you might suggest something similar to punish the loser owner who can’t/won’t control their cherished pet… Perhaps the OP can toss any poops on the sidewalk… “Landmines”… LOL
Wait.. that won’t work… if the owner is avoiding the “poop mines” then he/she CAN’T concentrate on controlling their animal…
Any other suggestions? 🙂
