I love dogs. Got a dog myself. Here is my problem. My neighbor lets her dog run free. The dog is not mean and seems pretty friendly. He is a little smaller than a German Shepherd. The dog poos in my yard. There are piles near every entrance to my home. This dog poos big too.

My neighbor is a good neighbor. I just don't feel I have the raport to talk to her. I like these people and do not wish to start a problem that can last for years.

The only options I can think of are:

Call county animal control.

Talk to my neighbor, and risk the relationship.

Pellet the dogs fanny. (this may not be effective.)

Do nothing. (Shovel the poo as needed.)

Anything more creative?

Re-order of events:

1- Do nothing. (Shovel the poo as needed.) (you already tried this, neg. results, right?)

2- Talk to my neighbor, and risk the relationship. (yep, that's next step. If you can't handle this, then keep shoveling.)

3- Call county animal control. (only remaining option that couldn't get you in trouble in some way.)

Dumping poop in neighbor's yard, while morally fair, is littering and trespassing, if not some other crazy NC State Statute. Pelleting the dog, while effective, would be cruelty to animals, and extremely embarrassing if this all came to a head at some point. If you look at it from other person's perspective: What would you do if you saw someone shooting pellets at your dog? I'm not a violent person, but that kind of thing would provoke an aggressive response in the most passive of people, myself included.

3 stages of dealing with the neighbor:

ask them- (talk nicely)

tell them- (fix this or I will call AC and prosecute)

help them- (call AC and DO prosecute, following through to the end)

(ref: I work directly with the ACO's where I live, unfortunately I live in VA, so I can't/don't have the resources or contacts to be of more help.)

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse.

      Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.

      What gets this team past this?

      By frankw · Posted

      I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
