I didn't know where to put this so I posted it here.
First of all, NO, I didn't get a dog or am I thinking of getting a dog. It's about an idiotic pet owner with no consideration for his neighbors.
I fed the two girls (Midnight and Fluffy) when I left for work yesterday. I too a short cut over a small patch of grass on the side of our building. Well, I stepped in dog poo!!!!! They are by NO means small either!! :mad: In CT, it's a law that you clean up after your dog.
I know there's a guy two buildings down from me who owns a standard poodle and lets her free in the yard to potty. Last night I went out to my car and the dog was out sniffing around the garage that Midnight and Fluffy stay in next door. She started barking at me. Her owner popped his head out of his door to see what the commotion was. He said, "I hope she's not bothering you." I said no, but I was concerned since she was sniffing around the girl's refuge. He called her and she didn't come. What did he do??? He simply closed the door!!!
I was SO tempted to call animal control but didn't. So, what do I do? Do I put a note on his door complaining about the dog poo in OUR yard? Or simply take the long way around our building?? I'm also a little concerned about the girls. I know they can take care of themselves. But it's not right that he lets his dog out loose to poop in other people's yards.
Any advice??
