We have our dog on a lead that does not allow her to go into our neighbor's yard. Our neighbor is now claiming that two brown spots in her yard was caused by our dog urine. Is that possible?

Sure, why not?. But, it is highly Make that astronomically unlikely.


Let me ask you this.

How close does the dog lead allow him/her to come to your neighbors property?

How close are the spots, in relationship to where you dog relieves him/her-self?

Are they spots or a general area?

Does she have any pets? If not, she may be scared of your dog. My DW dis-likes dogs, but likes cats, so we have a cat. Candy Pester, and I know where her usual "spots" are, and have seen no ill effects to the lawn. See pix.

With that in mind, this could be psycho/physiological Let me bite my tongue here, Has your neighbor been taking her meds? :rolleyes:

A lawn needs to have the liquid applied directly to have any effect. By the time any forensic evidence would reach a neighbors lawn it would be too dilute. Even in a residential area there are wild animals that can produce this effect.

No, that's just crazy talk, unless you dog can shoot it at a distance and if that's the case I would enter the Pup in a contest :p
