Dog Pooping in Front of House
There seems to be a poop problem on our block. This girl on our block has 3 dogs (pitbulls). We dont mind, the dogs are well trained and havent been bothering anyone. But recently there has been a lot of poop in front of our house. Yesterday, our house had a bunch of dog diarrhea,…
There seems to be a poop problem on our block. This girl on our block has 3 dogs (pitbulls). We dont mind, the dogs are well trained and havent been bothering anyone. But recently there has been a lot of poop in front of our house. Yesterday, our house had a bunch of dog diarrhea, my dad cleaned it, and 2 hours later, again, poop all over. So he became furious because he couldnt open the front gate of our house. Everyone on the block knows her dogs are just pooing everywhere. He confronts her and she gets all defensive. “Prove it” she stated. Okay, so my dad walked away and told me about this and we bought a surveillance camera from RadioShack, rather cheap too. What actions do we have from her dogs pooping everywhere? Also their dogs are never on leashes (i think its illegal?). This has never been a problem to us because they seem well trained BUT now that she doesnt seem to be owning up and cleaning her dogs poop, is this something we can bring to her attention as well?
Okay, I know there have been many postings about working with your neighbors (e.g., bags on tree blocks, etc) but this girl just seems uncooperative.
Thanks again.
BTW-that NYDaily News article on dog shit in Sunset Park is correct :-\
We had a similar situation on our block with a youngish owner of a pit bull who let his dog crap all over the block and never pick it up (I have seen him on several occasions sneaking around the block as to not be seen letting his dog crap everywhere) and whenever it appeared in front of our house, I would scoop it up and put it right in his doorway (he lived in an apt. house on the block) and guess what? I have not seen dog poop in front of our home for a few years now.
okay geekazoid, point well taken. 🙂 and yeah youre right… pitbulls poop are insanely large. and smelly.

What Hank said.
If you know where she lives, you know where to discard the poop after you collect it.
@DIBS – the other neighbors are upset too. one other gentleman confronted her and she went crazy. told the guy “why dont you tell this to my husband”. the husband confronted the guy… the guy was probably in his 50s, the husband in his 20s… the guy tells this guy to keep his wife in check. lol. drama 🙂
Come on, be a Brooklynite of old. We had the same problem years ago and the solution is simple: if you’re sure that it’s her dogs then each and every time that a “deposit” is made in front of your property, simply gather it up (sanitarily, of course) and redeposit it ON her front door (and I do mean ON the front door). Let’s stop the Mary Poppins crap (no pun intended) and fight fire with fire. This is only a small example why so many people run roughshod over others. No one retaliates!
@rob – i just mentioned the dogs because theyre BIG dogs and their shits are HUGE. if it was a chihuahua, i would say its a chihuahua. trying to put their shit into perspective. but its 3 HUGE pitbulls. i have nothing against them. i actually liked her dogs until they started this shitting rampage.
I am old.
oh pete, your joke is getting old hahahah
