Lawn etiquete

Dog pee will turn grass brown and kill it after a few times the dog pees on it.

That's more true for female dogs than male, and only if they go in the same spot each time - like Alysser mentioned Mikey was doing - for two weeks, even! And when it rains so much, like it has been here lately, the rain dilutes it pretty quickly!

I don't let my dogs walk on other people's lawns. They don't control the walk, I do.

It's not like I am letting her walk in the middle of their lawns. She is on the edge between the road and grass. And I doubt if she has ever hit the same spot twice. I guess I will just have to remember which neighbors don't like it and keep her away from those yards...

Wow, the neighbors are a bit harsh! Beenie and Frankie (especially Frankie) pees on lawns when we walk and I've never had anyone look at me funny. They've only said: it's fine if it's only pee. Not that I wouldn't collect the poo when it happens (they prefer going in thier own yard - lol). Somedays I will walk Frankie on the street as opposed to the sidewalk just because he likes to leave 'messages' every few feet.
