Lines: 28 This is a flame against a current situation I am experiencing that is totally infuriating!! That is, people who allow their dogs (or any pet) to defecate on *MY* lawn!!! I have in the last week discovered 10 piles of dog waste on my back lawn! If I knew whose dog was the culprit, I would have no problem resolving the situation. But since the piles are always left anonymously, I am left with nothing but anger to show for the situation. Too many people with pets (dog owners are the worst offenders) seem to believe that they have the right to allow their dog to defecate anywhere it happens to be at the time. These people prefer the dog using my lawn rather than their own! I do not have a dog mainly for the reason that I do not care to clean up dog wastes and I certainly do not want dog wastes on my lawn. An obvious solution to the problem I am experiencing is to poison (or in some other devious fashion cause injury to the animal) the animal. I have certainly been angry enough to resort to this. I have not simply because I do not hold the dog responsible for this. I blame the dog owner! If anyone has any suggestions on how I can resolve this problem, please send them to me! I am rapidly reaching the boiling point! Allen England at BTL, Naperville, IL ihnp4!ihuxb!alle
