By the way, yes, I am a pet owner, I'm 5'3" and I control my dog (and he's not some little lapdog). Since you folks seem to be so forgiving, why not post your addresses. I'm sure all of us moronic homeowners would love to take our dogs out for a walk.
Chilllll out duuude. Grab a cheve!

I just hope that your new house doesn't appeal to the canine inhabitants of your neighborhood. God forbid they also have owners that can't control them.
We all have our canine problems.. it's not exclusive to Overlook Canyon or your sanctuary. I'm not sure how posting on a forum is going to do any good other than venting.

I applaud your efforts in controlling your dog's bladder. However, I'm not gonna implement a 24/7 urine patrol service on my lawn.
I was being facetious. A 24/7 urine patrol service...good idea! I'd hire you! Since obviously voicing it just elicits responses from folks who justify their actions.

I'm just trying to help solve your problem. Being disrespectful is not against the law, so alerting people of the rudeness is not going to solve the problem. I do not know how you thought complaining as a new person to a forum would get you anywhere. My dog doesn't pee anywhere it's not suppose to, I'm just trying to explain to you that you are not going to stop every dog owner from letting their dog pee on your yard. It doesn't make what they are doing right, but it's your problem not theirs. You are going to have to do something about the problem. wait for it.....utter shock
So at this point...DO SOMETHING!!!

I think I'm going to have a pee spot on my front yard, put some flowers around it and have a sign that says "Your dog can pee here!" I think my neighbors would like me.

It takes a pretty consistent pattern of urine to burn grass...I have St. Augustine in my dog run and with 3 dogs and once a week watering I see no damage. When I walk my dogs i carry bags for feces, if one of my male dogs should get the urge to urinate it's because they are marking. They typically spinkle the curb or a mailbox post, the amount is so negligble I don't see the fuss. It's a neighborhood, I make concessions for living in an area with other people. There is a leash law so at the very least you have some damage on the area near the curb...is that even worth the effort?

Despite the original title and lone reference to the local HOA in the OP, this discussion doesn't appear to be San Antonio related. Please follow the discussion to the Dogs forum.
