Actually alot of cities classify dogs "pooping" on others' lawns as littering. You may want to check into that if the pepper doesn't do the trick ;)

<-- sees people with plastic bags and pooper scoopers walking dogs all the time in his neighborhood. We must have an ordinace.

invest in several million liters of compressed air and buy one of those subsonic whistles that piss off the dogs

Connect the hose from your compressed air tank to the whistle and let it out slowly (but audible enough for the dog)

Cook your family some bacon in a pan. Take the grease and pour it on the loads you find in your yard. When the dog comes back he will not be able to resist eating it therefore clean up your problem for you. Rinse and repeat.

We have a WINNER!




My dog always poops in a spot that's in this corner where the grass is really high. If he sh!ts on people's lawns I pick it up, but he hardly ever does that.

Oh, about a lb. of hamburger and make a raw meatloaf, then lace it with exlax. Send it home and it should crap a whole bunch there. ;)

I've heard that tabasco around the edge of the yard will discourage them, and probably won't kill your lawn. On the other hand, the owner of the dog needs to learn some freakin' respect!

Set the sprinklers to go off in the morning. Most dogs hate to get wet.

Put a few poison ivy/oak trees where the dog likes to poop. Hope he learns his lesson.

Make signs with giant pictures of ferocious looking dogs and put it in your front yard. Get some blow up dinosaurs and put several of those in your front yard as well. That might scare the dog.

Get a gnome and put a motion sensor in it. Put the gnome where the dog likes to poop. Program the gnome to say "NO! BAD DOG!" everytime it senses something. The gnome would preferrably wail its arms wildly as well.

Erect a maze on your front lawn. Hope the dog and owner get lost inside.

Build a catapult with a delayed weight sensor and modify the the end of the arm to be a flat 3x3 area board. Place this catapult where the dog likes to poop. Once the dog has finished pooping, have the device wait for 20 seconds, then fling that crap into the middle of the street. Hopefully it will hit the dog.

Build a pressure sensitive platform where the dog likes to poop. When the dog stands there, have a cage come down and imprison the dog. You'll be sure to find out who the owner is.

Learn to speak dog. Have a logic discussion with the dog about him pooping on your lawn.

Spend years learning the black arts. Summon mighty earth golems of great power to protect your lawn.

Lay down concrete.
