You never really know what the other person is feeling or what they have gone through so it's always best to try to understand and be considerate. |
I"m sure he's had so many dogs poop in his yard he figures you're another one of those inconsiderate people. Dog pee does destroy lawns and I know I'm pretty sick of people letting their dog do their business on my lawn also. It's so disrespectful - that I think if I saw someone walking their dog and it came onto my lawn I'd be assuming they were just like all the rest...
Seriously, there's a lady on the next block with a big german shepard that would let him poop on my (nice) yard...he was on a leash too. Then she'd just up and walk away with him. After several times of that I finally ran out and said
"here, (offering her a plastic grocery bag)
take that with you." My hubby came out and said to her: "How'd you like it if I came and sh** on your front steps?" (I know crude, but really...think about it...what would be the difference? Which excrement would be the ruder of the two?)
Haven't seen her since. But she looked shocked at the time - like she thought I had some nerve. People are weird.
