Moral compass question: Pet Peeing

[BarkingGhostar]

I am curious as to your thoughts if one of your neighbors deliberately walked their pet over to your car to have a piss. How do you feel about that? Where do you draw the line and say something and if it happens a second time how would you handle it?

The dog pisses on your car?

I think more background is needed. Does the neighbor have to cross into your property to bring it to your car or is the car parked on a public street somewhere where it could have just been coincidence?

 

[BarkingGhostar]

Talking about a neighbor with pet on leash, walking their pet up to your car to have a go at it. Someone captured this via their car's video security system.

Go shit on their lawn.

 

[BarkingGhostar]

I'm thinking it might be funnier if I pay some kids to go pee on the neighbor's front door or mailbox.

Is that solicitation of a minor?

Just like Halloween.

my neighbour used to let her small dog shit on our front lawn. I told her to stop doing it or there would be consequences. She didn't and I pwned her bad.

Nothing like sweet cold revenge.

I live in a mixed residential/professional. Previous neighbor was a chiropractor and lived above her office. Her dog would come shit in my backyard. After stepping in it a couple of times, I started tossing it in her driveway...where her customers came in. Didn't take long for that problem to resolve itself.

If you can, send them the video, not in person and without further comment except that a concerned neighbor sent you this. Don't blow it out of proportion. Shit happens. Pee, too.

She didn't and I pwned her bad.

Okay NOT cool ..... you CANNOT just end your post there we need the gory details!

 

[MrSquished]

I go through like 500 plus dog poop bags a year. It's really not that hard to look after your dog. People just suck

 

[UsandThem]

Go shit on their lawn.

Sometimes enough is enough.

I have told the story here many times. Once more for you:

After I told her to stop doing it, she stopped for a week. Then it started again. I told my father about it and of my idea to teach her a lesson. He laughed and said, "do it". So I did.

What I did was to wait for her and her husband (seniors) to leave for a few hours. When the coast was clear I raked up all her dog's shit from our lawn and covered her driveway with it. Like I said, her dog shit there for over 4 months (this was now August 1994). There were nearly a hundred dried turds all over her driveway. I was waiting for them to get home and it was glorious. He was mad and confused. She started yelling at me.

And this is how that conversation went:

her: what the hell is all this?
me: your dog's shit. I thought I'd return it to you since I don't want it on my lawn.
her: your going to have to clean this up
me: that's your problem. I told you many times to not let your dog shit on our lawn.
her: well, I never.
me: it's about time.
her: maybe I will call the police.
me: go ahead. I am sure they would love to hear about your dog shitting on our lawn.
her: you are just a rude nasty person.
me: I am not but you pissed me off when you ignored a direct order to knock it off.
her: I will just sweep them on your lawn.
me: go ahead but be warned that any more shit on my lawn will result in me filling your mailbox your dog's shit.
husband to his wife: you caused this now clean it up and stop being a pain.
me: with big shit-eating grin.

Wait did this person walk over to your car and command the dog to piss? Or did they just walk passed your car and the dog pissed? Dogs like to pee on things car tires being one of those things. A one time thing I wouldn't even worry about. If it became a regular thing I might ask them to try to avoid my car but it is just piss. I walk my dog the same routes a lot and he tends to piss in the same spots.

That's a relief. For a moment I was worrying this was going to turn into a "that depends, on what the pate is made of" kind of scenario.

Next time it happens hit the panic button so it scares the dog and he might pee on the owner too.

 

[snoopy7548]

I'd still eat the pizza.

 

[Exterous]

Depends - was this before of after I peed on their house?

I always wondered how you met your wife

This didn't happen to me personally. It was a video that someone posted on another forum. It was obvious the owner, who had the mutt on a leash, would walk the dog up to various inanimate objects to piss on and was indifferent in treating the person's car no differently than a fire hydrant. But the video showed the guy walk the dog on the short leash up to the car to 'have a piss', and apparently completely ignorant that the Tesla's Sentry Mode was active and recording him and the mutt's pissing. I responded to that posting--all be it an extreme reply suggesting I'd call the police. A lot of the replied seemed to think I was insane for even reacting, let alone reacting the way I did and this made me wonder where their moral compass was.

I'd never let my pet do that. My pet is MY responsibility and I certainly would disrespect other peoples personal property. The fact that those replies essentially found it OK made me sad. So I wondered and posted here.

That's because people suck.

In my defense, there is a privacyg hedge and how was I supposed to know the back of her head was in line with flying poop?

25 years later, I still call her sheet head.

So with more facts now. If the person is arbitrarily walking the dog up to cars to see if the dog will pee, then I would say something to them. I would not call the police the first time. If they did it multiple times after I had said something, then I would see if there was anything that could be done legally (eg call the police).

If the guy is simply walking his dog and the dog stops and pees on the car then it's not malicious and I'd talk to him but calling the police is way overreaction. My dog has peed on cars before but that is not a common thing and only when just walking past the car.

 

[BarkingGhostar]

Not malicious, but certainly inconsiderate. Where do you draw the line? Your mailbox, your kid's tricycle? You are ultimately responsible for what, how and where your biologic does their business. What if you kid decides to follow suit? Why not have you pet do their business on your property? The video wasn't an apartment/condo, but a residential neighborhood with single family home.

Anywhere on or adjacent to public space I wouldn't concern myself about. Perhaps you've never had a dog, you can't always control where they want to go, especially if you're taking them for a walk. If the owner is responsible, any poops will be cleaned up and any pee (if not consistently in the same place) should dissipate.
