Should I talk to my neighbor about this matter?

Yes, you should talk to your neighbor about that matter. After all, it is your parents and their house. The neighbors dog should not be in your from yard. And he should not be pooping there either. I think their neighbor needs to be spoken to.

It depends on how are your relations with your neighbors. But I always think that it is bettter to talk about this nicely the first time, explaining that if their dog litters your front yard it is their task to clean it. If they don´t understand with nice words, you must think of other means to make them understand it.

oh i would really go to the neighbor and tell them about the mess their dogs leave. i mean they should clean it up and because they want dogs, they should know how to take care of them, not only bathe them, feed them but also include their poops to be cleaned as well, right? they should be responsible enough with their pets

1.Request to stop this menace. 2.Warn them about your trouble. 3.Write to Local authorities with a copy to them

honesty is always the best policy. i believe it would be better to talk to them personally. a letter will not make them feel the urgency and the emotion that goes with what you will tell them. it is best that you talk to them with sincerity but with the respect intact. nothing would go wrong with a friendly chat stating your concern.

you should talk to your neighbor first about that matter and ask them to be responsible with their pet, if they don't listen then go make a warning letter and if they'll still ignore it! go buy an air soft and shoot their dog hehehe!!! nice

You should definitely talk to your neighbors face to face so that they can understand how angry you are, and you have every right to be. As a pet owner I would never do that, and I couldn't anyways because I live in an apartment building. But it's very irresponsible of them to do something like that. I honestly can't understand why people are not more conscious of the things that they do! Would they like it if every neighbor that lives next to them let their dogs roam free on their yard and then they have to clean up a whole lot of crap!? Don't write them a letter just go up to them and complain and if they continue to do it then I would try to do somethin bigger like maybe sue them or something, it sounds a bit much I know but things like that just infuriate me.

Yes, you've got to do it right away. Don't wait. This is crucial. I were you I'd tell the neigbour about it. How would such a neighbour would release his dog into someone's yard.

better to talk to them personally because sometimes writing words are misleading and they may interpret it the other way around. maybe if you don't know them personally, you may try to establish first a good relationship with them. invite them over for coffee or tea. converse with them often, then if you think you are close enough and will not take any concerns as offensive and that's the time you'll tell them your concern. maybe you could joke about the dog messing in your place. in this way you will prevent misunderstanding because aside from our relatives, our neighbors are very helpful to us in case of emergency. so it is very important to maintain good relationship with them.

I think both can do.First of all, the neighbour shouldn't let his dog released around.If so ,he should do his best not trouble his neighbours.If not,people should let him know it's bad for him to do it.But the way of letting him know is important.Being polite does matter in dealing with the relationship between neighbours.

I think you should go to the neighbors and ask them nicely not to let their dogs loose in the yard. They should know that its the law not to let their dog loose, the dog suppose to be on a leash. What if the dog bite somebody especially a little child now the dog has to be put to sleep. If they are the type of neighbors that will give you a hard time about all this, that's when you should do other things such as write a letter or call the cops.

I think you should talk with them and let them know you don't appreciate them allowing their dog to poop on the front lawn! They need to take better care of their pets and make sure they clean up after them. They should know better, everyone should have more respect than that!

Hi Kingparker, If these are neighbors of your parents you should be able to speak to them without any problem...But you definately speak with them. Its a violation here in the village if you are caught not picking up after your dog, and the owners will be ticketed...Check with your local athorities about this...that way your mom can just call them and no one will have to speak to the neighbors....

hi kingparker, I think that you should talk to your neighbor about that. It's their responsibility to clean up the poos of their dogs. And why would they yell their dog back to their place if your mom will walk up to the mailbox? aren't they kinda guilty about it? I think you should talk to them in person instead of writing a warning letter.
