Beat the owner with a rolled up newspaper and let the dog watch!

on my car in the evenings (which can be for multi-week stretches as it 
is right now), his dog elects to do his business on MY lawn. Now, what kinda 
irks me is that the owner allows this mutt to do his business while 
I'm standing right there! Doesn't say anything; just waits and picks 
up the delivery when the mutt's done.

As a multi-dog family. And living in a 'hood where several dogs roam free. 
Be very thankful that he picks up the poo.. many people dont. He is being
a responsible dog owner/walker.

But even before that event, the other half of me didn't like it too much. 
I mean - I pay gardeners damn good money to maintain MY yard - the yard I OWN - 
not to mention that I have a small son who's going to be running and 
crawling through that very same grass.

Ok, here is a little bit of information, the easment near the road, in 
most cases you do not own, but are required to maintain, sorry thats the 
way it is to live in a civilized world.. ( im assuming you live in 
suburbia as the man picks up the poo..)

But I do realize that I can't prevent everyone from letting their dog roll 
a deuce on my lawn, but I distinctly feel that the owner should have 
the decency to move him along if I'm standing right there. Hell - 
even a pathetic "sorry" from him would be acceptable I guess...

Be thankful that he's scooping the poop...
