Neighbor's dog peeing in our yard, Is it acceptable?
I came into this situation and before I do something out of rage, I needed to know your opinions.
I have a big yard, and it extends to a sidewalk and then grass and an oak tree. All the property belongs to us (the design is same for all houses here). My neighbor brings his dog out, and today while we were chatting with him and his wife outside, their dog (without a leash) came and peed on the oak tree in our yard.
Now I am not a fan of dogs, and I just absolutely hate dogs peeing and pooping some place where I may be laying my picnic basket in summer. We didn't tell them anything and of course the neighbor also showed no reaction.
Now I had a good talk with my husband alone. We both are not aware of the pet rules here in US, and the neighbor is also Indian so I'm not sure whether he will be knowing them. Is it acceptable for dogs to be ting in other people's yards during their walks? My husband had also seen this dog doing the same thing in other people's yards in the cul de sac. Would it be appropriate to tell the neighbor to watch his dog and not let him in other people's property?
Or am I just overreacting?
Please advise.
