Dog walking question.

Do you consider it rude if someone is walking their dog and he/she (the dog not the person) piddles in your lawn or on your shrubs?

Of course not. Anybody who would get offended over that has taken the art of being politically correct way too far. That's a half step away from calling for a leash law for birds to help regulate where they poop

Piddling doesn't bother me. Pooping doesn't bother me either UNLESS the people don't pick up after their dog. Now that bothers me. I always bring a baggie with me when I walk our dog. Its only curtious.

you can't control where/when a dog decides to pee, doesn't bother me. Poo does.

poo of course has to be bagged. I'm strictly talking pee here.

No, unless your dog has that uber-acidic pee that kills anything it comes into contact with. One of my mother-in-law's dogs (English Retreiver) is like that. Yellow dead spot within 5 days of him peeing anywhere.

Are people REALLY getting this uptight? That was a rhetorical question...

Heheheh...reminds me of that Dog in the second nightmare movie that hikes his leg and out comes fire!

one of my dogs is like that, her pee is particularly bad on my grass for some reason.

Philip Hamm · 10-12-2004, 10:28 PM

female dogs are the ones with very bad pee. How can you know? Would that be a legitimate reason for people to get bent out of shape about dogs peeing in their lawn?

Philip_G · 10-12-2004, 11:49 PM

some people are anal about it, the grass will grow back...

Females as a rule are worse, my female is like 3 times worse than most. Not sure why but I have a dead spot about 8' in diameter thanks to her.

It's the whole - I'm taking my dog for a walk - bit, that can be annoying.

If you and your dog pass by and the dog
