We live in a subdivision, HOA...nearby woman walked her two small dogs every day to our front yard, she did bring a bag to pick up after them. I had finally had enough of her, would have gone outside except still in pj's, I opened the window and yelled at her and told her not to bring them in my yard again, that I had already discussed this with the board of directors and my next step was animal control and I would file a complaint against her. She walked away shaking her head up and down "yes". I am sure anybody around here heard me but she has not been back. She is now using the yard on the corner. I am not sure what is wrong with her. They say ignorance is bliss.

Try a sign for the owner. Do a search for no dog poop on the grass tin sign.

My next door neighbor lets her dog poop in the area behind my patio in heavy vines so she doesn't have to clean it up. I complained to the manager, but to no avail. I want to put something on my driveway so it won't go there, and something right on the vines. So I need something to pour on the driveway that won't hurt the cement, and something for the vines that won't hurt them.

I don't care about the dog. How about some results?

Place the large Pop bottles filled with water on your lot, I don't know how large your lot is . But we place one on each corner. The dogs won't poop where they think it is food. Sounds off the wall, but it works

well, this is from a countryboy here but it works for me. i have a dog and there are dogs all around us. I had a dog from up the road come and poop all over my back yard and eat my dogs food. my dog has one place he goes. well i would wait for this dog to come around and i would shoot it with paintballs and a slingshot. after a few times of that he hasnt shown back up again and its been a year now. that is how i deal with unwanted animals on my property.

Try "Grant's Dog & Cat Repellent" I found it at a local nursery, but you can order it online. I used it to teach my dogs to stay out of flower beds, but learned it's also effective to keep cats that are allowed to run out as well. You need to use it daily until your animals learn where they can and cannot go. If it's other animals - you could put up a fence.

Does anyone know of a safe natural way to keep dogs from pooping on the lawn? This is inconsiderate and disgusting on the owners part.

Thanks for your help. Have a happy, healthy new year!

RE: Preventing Dogs From Pooping on Lawn

Do you know whose dog it is? We had a similar problem with the neighbor's dog, and we just asked them if they could do something about it. He's mostly an indoor dog so now they just attach him to a long leash attached to the house when they let him out so he can't roam over to our yard. (01/01/2007)

RE: Preventing Dogs From Pooping on Lawn

Is this from people walking their dogs? My neighborhood dogs & parents are pretty well behaved and/or contained or leashed all the time. If it's people who are walking their dogs just run out & tell them to stop it. Dogs aren't allowed by law to run loose either. If you know whose dog it is I would confront them like the 1st person said. (01/03/2007)

How about a sign, "Please curb your dog!" (01/03/2007)

You might hand the dog owner a little plastic bag, nicely, of course. Then tell him or her that you use lawn chemicals on occasion and do not want the dog to get sick from them. Then post those little signs in your right-of-way that warn of lawn chemicals. (01/04/2007)
