Neighbor walks her dog on side of my house

Tell her to get her dogs off your grass. If she gets loud or confrontational, do the same. People like that exist, and they bank on the fact that others will back down to avoid confrontation. If you demonstrate you are just as willing to stick to your position as they are, they almost always back down.

Some larger point. It's no worse than the Pavlov's Dog experiment. Condition the animal to do something. Like the bell rings and the dog salivates ??

Escalating the situation to a violence prone state (knives, guns, beat downs) works for you ? Because once you get past the yelling stage that's exactly where it's headed.

And nismospec, 10 points for your insight...lmao.

I enjoyed the comments made here on this subject.
Has nothing to do with,dogs,cats or neighbors.
But the responses that some of you have for one another
are really very funny.
I mean this in a positive way & not trying to be sarcastic.
I will probably be criticized for this, but Thanks for making
me laugh.

Not to mention some of the far out "what ifs" as well ...

Sec. 5-19. - Leash and pooper scooper required.

An animal owner or keeper shall not walk an animal without a leash restraint, and shall not guide or take animals onto the yards or driveways of property not owned, leased or occupied by the animal owner for the purpose of allowing the animal to defecate, but shall keep the animal in the public right-of-way, and shall carry a container and implement for the sanitary removal of the animal's fecal matter from the public sidewalk and public right-of-way adjacent to any property with a structure or other improvements thereon.(Ord. No. 2010-06-17-0555, § 1, 6-17-10)

Regulating the Care and Control of Animals

Pooper Scooper Laws

Call 311 to report all animal related concerns and violations.

I sure wish the cops would enforce the law on those who don't have means of picking up the crap. People just walk away and leave it.
