It's a tricky one.

Firstly, a lot of people don't use retractable leads properly and you end up walking into the lead or the dog rounds a corner with the owner way behind, not effectively supervising the dog.

Likewise your wife wasn't properly supervising your dog.

So even though you dog-sat for me and I would return the favor, I would still alert your wife that your dog had just shat on my lawn.

Your wife would/should appologise and pick up that shit immediately, because she would have her dog shit kit with her.

I would bid her a good day wave and she would do likewise and that would be that.

Doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate the favor or wouldn't return it.

But if a dog shits on your lawn, the owner needs to pick it up.

Yeah, I don't know bro. Under normal circumstances I would agree with you. If she would have noticed that the dog took a crap I'm positive she would have picked it up. We're not the red-neck neighbors that let our dog run around and deuce all over the place. Not sure I agree with your retractable leash etiquette either. She wasn't taking the dog for a walk. She was outside in our yard with the dog, the neighbor lady started chatting with her, so she walked over and figured she better put our dog on a leash so he wasn't running around.

I just don't feel it's very neighborly to call someone out like that. If it were a random person walking their dog, and stood there and watched as their pet crapped on your yard then I feel you would have every right to say something. That's just being rude not to pick up after your pet. In this case she didn't see it happen. Add to that the fact that we just watched their dog (and picked up a dozen piles of his shit over the weekend) so I feel like he was out of line. I could be wrong here, though. I guess I'm just putting myself in his shoes and expecting him to respond to the situation like I would have.

Either way, I can't wait for him to ask me for another favor so I get to tell him "sure, right after you come pick up your dogs shit all over my yard from 4 months ago". :-)

I hear you man, I would feel kinda pissed off too, that post was looking at it from entirely his perspective.

He could have just chilled, to see if it was a pattern of behavior.

Right on. It's all about patterns, not isolated incidents. Maybe he got out of the wrong side of the bed and stepped on a lego brick that morning. Lego bricks can ruin anybody's day.

Just go to his lawn, drop your pants and leave a steamy pile, then say, "Hey! Just fertilizing your lawn as you have fertilized mine!!!"

That's pretty cool. I've gotten used to them now. We find quite a few different kinds on my land:

Berg Adder - Mildly Venomous
Puff Adder - VERY Dangerous
Cape Cobra - Most potent neurotoxic venom of all African snakes
Boomslang - Incredibly venomous, neurotoxic, fast as all hell

Only one that bothers me is the Puff Adder. The other guys will give you fair warning and move away themselves. Boomslang in particular is very shy. Super fast, graceful and elegant. The one yesterday got a HUGE fright same as I did. It was a really close call. They puff up when extremely threatened, and this one puffed up all the way to it's tail. It was within half a second of a strike. I high-tailed it back into the attic (was on my way out, my office is up there) only to see it slither in at high speed and go hide amongst a bunch of stored boxes. It's a DADDY too. Never seen one quite that big. Now I'm walking in there using two old geyser drip-trays as armour LOL. No fucking way to catch it up there. Which would be stupid to attempt anyhow. ONLY people that ever get bitten by Boomslang are snake handlers and snake park workers. Long as you don't screw with it, it's a very chilled snake.

Most of the time you won't see 'em. Odds of you running into one somewhere in S.A are really low. My land is a bit of a refuge for them, we've got monocultures all around us, no habitat, no food. They like my place because we've still got food and good habitat. It's a good sign.
Healthy land. And last year I saw few snakes, but had a mouse plague. Bet you it's going to be a lot less mousey around here lol...

What a great game. I knew Lackey was going to pitch lights out. Verlander is just the best. Period. I saw your Wolverines against Penn State this weekend. That was crazy too. Then Monday a one goal win for the Red Wings. Exciting stuff.
