Doggie Doo ****** *******s

[etouffee]

Somebody's dog keeps crapping in my front yard. A lot. I'm 99% sure I know whose dog it is, but I can't prove it because it seems to happen during the day when nobody is home at our house. And of course when I casually mentioned it in a non-accusatory way, he assured me it wasn't his dog pooping on my lawn.

Now I'm not out to get revenge or turn things sour with a neighbor, and I have no interest in hurting a dog. I just want the doodoo to stop. So my question is this:

Is there a humane way to keep dogs off your lawn?

[colleyvillesooner]

Setup a video camera.

[OUDoc]

Broken glass shards in the lawn.

Or a lawn made completely of fire.

[handcrafted]

Electric fence.

I think they sell some rubber leg traps that won't hurt the dogs. The same ones used to catch soft monkeys.

Just consider it fictional poop. Then, it's not really there. :texan:

How much do these go for in the wild?

Saturate your lawn with your own peepee.
In broad daylight.

Tell us how it works out.

A bigger dog should do the trick.

We once had a neighbor return our cat crap to us. She came in our house and put it in our freezer.


(this was back in the day when people didn't lock their houses)

best idea ever.

Wrap Viagra in doggie treats and scatter them in your yard. He'll either become too busy to bother you again or will come back every day. It's 50/50 really.

Ceyenne Pepper, lots of it. When he comes to sniff out a place for the next pile, he'll wish he hadn't. I cured em from raiding my garbage this way.

Take a close-up picture of the dog poo and print out a full color flier that says something about lost property found--please claim. or something. And stick it in every mailbox in the neighborhood.

ya know, its funny....up here I am required to pick up my dogs craps all the time. So when we go on walks away from the house I always make sure I have an ample supply of plastic bags. Its been this way for me for the last 4 years so I don't really think about it much, its just what you do. Anyway, when I went to Oklahoma last week, I brought my dog with me. I took her on a few walks around my parents neighborhood, and of course, had the bags with me....Naturally, she crapped in the yard of a house a few doors down from my folks. Out of pure habit, I took out a bag and picked it up. The lady who lived across the street saw me and made it a point to tell me how considerate I was for doing that. I was a little shocked by that, since up here its just what you do....Apparently my folks neighborhood has been having problems with dog owners not picking up after fluffy...

Dig up your entire yard and make a huge 6' deep pit.
Mount stakes covered with your feces.
Cover the pit with inconspicuous cover.
Laugh uproariously at the impaled body of the little mongrel.

[slickdawg]

They are really hard to find these days, but get an old Nazi SS officer,
build a tower for him to monitor your yard from, and issue him a
50 caliber machine gun. Tell him to kill everything that enters your yard.

[TUSooner]

Hey wait a second.... You live in Baton Rouge, home of Loud Stupid U. Are you sure it's DOG poop ?

Oh sure, sounds good in theory. You ever try to smear feces on that many stakes. Really not very practical.

Well, you have to save up for a while.

After I wrote the response, I figured that it could work.

How I would go about it is to prepare the stakes well ahead of time and just keep them in the bathroom and prepare them one at a time as you go.

[JohnnyMack]

I'd bury about 8 of these in your front yard:

You won't be bothered by dog poop again.











You may wanna invest in a power washer though.

This is the perfect excuse to justify building a moat around your house.

Drastic times call for drastic measures.

Coyote urine or wolf urine. It comes in a littel bottle and you apply it sparingly to a couple of areas of the front yard. It does have to be reapplied after a rain, but it works. Get it at a natural pest & weedcontrol store.

We always use bags. I hate it when others don't.

dogs are deathly afraid of video cameras
