Neighbors won't clean up dog poop in my yard!!!!

Unless there's an ordinance or law regarding this in the books some where your screwed. Build a fence! Pick it up and throw it on their property! What does being a so called Christian have to do with anything, most are hypocrites, and use the term like it makes them better than other people. I'm a 61 yr. old male and throughout my life I've never told anyone I was a Christian, I'm always very Leary of people who profess to being a Christian! I worked for a Christian Company and they were the worst people I've met in my entire life! tdemex

foursox, you should not allow your dogs to EVER go in someone else's yard; as you have experienced, it will only serve to cause more problems. If at all possible, you need to install a fence or a large dog run/kennel for your dog's use. If there is a place where you can walk your dog in or near your home, do so on a regular basis. Dogs really perfer not to go where they live but will do so more often if other dogs go inside their territory. You can't very well complain to your neighbor about their dog going in your yard if yours in doing the same in theirs (even if you are cleaning it up, it still not nice). Record their dog doing its business in your yard if you can, and go over and apologize for letting you dog having used their yard in the past, and pledge to prevent it in the future. TELL them to not allow their dogs to go in your yard, show them the recording if they deny it is happening. If they play the fellow christian card, do not acknowledge or engage them in debate or comment; keep it strickly professionally firm. If they do not comply, you remove there dogs business from your yard and return it to them. You may want to have recorded documentation that this is from their dog so as not to be accused of melicious harrassment. I would also contact local authorities and get their opinion of how to handle the situation. But I highly recommend you install a fence that is capable of keeping their dogs out and yours in if your city/county ordinance will allow. Fences DO make good neighbors. Do whatever you can to resolve the situation without major conflict, as it can develop into a situation between adults rather than just between your animals. Continue to be respectful of your neighbors, regardless of the outcome. Remember the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"; and never be "a pot calling the kettle black". If you are unable to resolve among yourselves, file a formal complaint with your local authorities. Make sure you keep a detailed diary of the entire situation and records to prove your allegations. Most importantly, do not let your dog do the same to your neighbors, even if you are cleaning it up; that is just not right. Good luck to you, I hope all goes well.

you can call any animal control center in you area and make an official complaint. When you see the dog going take a picture be prepared if they try to deny it so they wont say its your dog.

wow, some neighbor you have there and 'christians' at that... shame on them you could report them to your local authorities. if that will happen to me, id sure have a fit. if they try to use it against you, throw the same thing back to them again.

I'd call the Health and Safety department or whatever you have in the usa,coz that is a health hazzard,especially with young kids around
