so my neigbors dog squats in my yard every morning. about a month ago I walked over politley and asked him not to let his dog shit in my yard. My border collie doesnt like it. She so stuck up she wont shit in the front yard until the other dogshit is gone. But still, it never fails, his dog shits in my yard still...every moring at around 830. I sit in the chair by the window, drinking my coffee, and watch his dog claim my dogs yard. Well, border coliies are smart dogs...so when my neighbor went out of town on buissnes for 2 weeks (his brother came over twice a day,and let the dog shit in my yard during that time), I taught my dog to do her buisness in the general vicintiy of his newspaper, which rests on his front stoop, and arives much earlier than 830. Still. His dog shits in my yard. Three days ago, the police are knocking on my door, saying that my neigbor says Ive commited vandalizm, and I porposley let my dog shit on his newspaper. The police were on my side when I showed them the footprints his dog leaves in the snow that go right to my yard, and the many many piles of shit that have accumlated over the last few weeks. They left and told me that they wouldnt be bothering me again. They also told me that he called because he opened his paper to get his hands wet...he thought it was snow...so he air dryed the paper on his kitchen table. I imagine his house smelled pretty rank.

ANWAY, his dog just shit in my yard again this morning....and I have found my solution. I parked my "eyesore" as he reffers to it in his front yard. That eyesore being my 97 XJ. he came over about an hour ago and told me that if I dont move my "car" he was going to have it towed, after correcting him with "Jeep" I told him that if he doesnt remove the dogshit, Im gonna have the dog removed.....he steamed back over to his house cursing and yelling the whole way. I thought I'd let you know that as of right now...3 oclock he is outside, pooper-scooper in hand...picking up dogshit, and sifting through almost 1.5 feet of snow to do it. life is good especially when you win. Id like to see him call the tow truck to have it towed. My girlfreind is best freinds with the owners daughter, and my dad when to high school with him....I had lunch with him 2 weeks ago. ;)
 
Take pictures of the dog doing it's business in your yard - date/time stamp each picture.

Send a certified letter to your neighbor POLITELY requesting that their dog stop, or they will incur fees for clean up, and repair of your yard.
Keep a copy of said letter and a copy of the certified receipt. (better if you can have an attorney send the letter).

After 30 days hire the most expensive pooper clean up company you can find.
Also hire the most expensive lawn repair company you can find to fix all the brown spots.

Take all your paperwork down showing ALL expenses, and sue the dude in small claims court.

They will loose, and they will stop their dog.
 
Get a shovel and start tossing it back into his yard.

Not very nice, but hey, it worked for us. Neighbors used to pull the same trick, when they saw us with snow shovels throwing the snow+doo into their yard, they cut it out.
 
haha those are all great ideas. If parking my Jeep in his yard doesnt work, I might just park it in his living room. Maybe ill put a bowl of anti-freeze out there next to the dogshit. and just wait. We'll see what happens tomarow. I just moved my jeep, he finished picking up all the dogshit, knocked on my door and told me he was done, and that it wont happen anymore. lol.. we'll see what happens
 
your right, not the dogs fault. maybe I should feed my neigbor antifreeze lol. I think all is said and done though. we shall see

My new neighbors used to let their very large pit mastiff mix crap in my back yard and my 4 month old Lab wouldn't go anywhere near the back yard. So I just got the snow shovel and started throwing it in their drive way. It's weird that me asking them to stop didn't do it but I had to literally throw feces's in their yard for them to get the hint.
 
I like the idea of flinging it back into his property with a shovel.

I wouldn't recommend parking in his yard as it might just make tensions worse and give him something to get the police back knocking...

Some people just suck and like to make problems bigger than they have to be. Good luck!
 
yeah I dont get it. This isnt the first infraction with the dog either. Damn thing is a menace to society. He got a fine a couple years ago because the dog bit another dog...and he had no shots. I guess he tried to bite a little kid walking with his mother last summer. I was in afgahnistan at the time so I didnt wintess it. IN the summer my neigbor chains the dog up outside, and he barks all night.
 
I will second the nomination..

and I am curious when did they start letting 4 year-olds own houses?

My neighbor was down on Saturday and told me where I could find the keys to his truck if I ever needed it.
Sit practically told me to use it.
Everyone needs to chill and grow up just a little.

Parking on his lawn..:twak:
 
okay you guys are right. Maming the dog would be out of line. I wouldnt like it if it was me. Understood. However do you really think parking in his yard was out of line? I asked nicely. No response. I accualy got kind of a cocky "go screw yourself vibe" I never had problems until this whole dog thing with this guy. I helped him rebuild his deck in the backyard a few summers ago. I dont get it. I never spoke a bad word to him, and I never insulted him or anything. After reading my post I understand that I did come off as a douche. Not my intent. I was joking about the antifreeze. I wouldnt kill his dog, thats messed up.
 
You don't mind dog crap in your yard?

... where do you live?

:D
 
they do suck. My new neighbors have a blue tic hound, a coon dog, that not only barks, it bays, both very loud and low, at everything. I work nights, so awww, woof, aowww, all day. I like dogs, and really have always loved the sound of a trackin coon dog, a coon dog with a coon treed is an amazing sound. However, I feel like I'm livin in a swamp, with Cletus just'a huntin away.
I feel you on the poo, as well. Keep your cool, and retain your sense of humor.
 
or a two week course of oral antibiotics :passgas:
 
okay okay i got it. enough with the personal attacks! lol. i hate dogshit in my yard...i pick my dogs stuff up three times a week.
