| A bit upset!!! OK- i know I live in a condo complex and we pay to have everythhing taken care of. Well they have fertilizied many times before and all has been pet safe. But now the guy doing the yards told me that this one is not safe and to keep my dog off the grass for 48 hours!!!!!!! Luig is completely trained to go outside and has been since we got him. So I ask him where he was supposed to go and he told me that "Sorry-not my problem Lady!" I of course started to get po'd for 1 he called me lady and 2 he had a major attitude when he said that. I asked him then to leave a little area by my garden area - I actually begged and he said that was impossible and continued to spray my whole yard. So now in the meantime Luig has to go. We do have asmall fenced in patio off the back but no grass or anything and he just kept going in circles and sniffing and looking at me like I can't go here- theres no grass. I left him out there 25 min and he would not go. Sooo now what am I supposed to do to get him to go potty in the 48 hours??????????? UUUUUggggghhhhhhhhhhhh!!! HELP!!!! |

| That happened to me once too when they came to spray for ants at my old house. I had to take Mia to the park every time she had to go outside. What a pain for 2 days, especially when it rained !!! I'm glad the park was right behind my house, I could just hold Mia till we got to the park. Is there a park nearby where you can bring her?

| Closest park is a 15 minute drive. I took him on the patio again and he just stood there looking at me. |

| I know the situation isn't funny but I can see him standing there with the "Mommy, what do I do now" look on his face!! Perhaps you could go to a home improvement store like Lowe's or Home Depot and buy a square of grass (I'm not sure if they let you buy just one) and leave it in the corner of the fence? |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Well, I'd rather be called "lady" than the dreaded "mam"...gotta admit it took me awhile to realize I am the mam they're talking to Can you walk him anywhere close by or have all the grounds been treated? Trace potties outdoors too, and unless he really, really has to go.....it's gotta have grass. |

| That is so sad, poor baby!! I wonder if you could buy one piece of sod at a garden center. It sure would be worth a try.
