It's official, I'm a grumpy old man

I think I live in a decent community with good people. Mostly good people. However, one of my neighbors seems to find it acceptable to let their dog use my front yard as a toilet. I do not find that acceptable.

I'm gonna catch em. And they're not gonna like it when I do.

Our development surrounds a pond/slough/wetland , depending on how much rain we’ve received recently, and for the most part, all of the dog owners on “the loop” are pretty responsible and pick up after their pooches.

However, there are two owners who just don’t get it, and we’re trying to figure out how to deal with them. One idea was to put a poop bag post out there for them, but personally I doubt they’ll take the hint.

Given we’re the “new kids on the block” (latest to move in), I hesitate to go in for direct confrontation, but it just may come to that.
