Stupid loving dog drama this morning. My wife was out taking Amelia for a walk and some rear end in a top hat came out of his house and accused her of repeatedly letting our dog crap on their lawn "You let them do this nearly every day". His proof of this is that she just walked by his lawn and her plastic poop bag fell out of her pocket next to some poop on his lawn. Yeah that makes sense, we take our dogs out and when they crap on other people's lawns we throw a bag at it and run. What the gently caress? I went to talk to him and he was totally dismissive "I know it wasn't our dog because I'm normally the one walking her" "Oh then you're the one that lets them do it". He doesn't even know who was walking the dog. The poop was tiny too, nowhere near our dog's poop size.

gently caress that guy. At least their house is for sale and they'll hopefully be gone soon.

Our neighbors are loving livid that our dogs exist and accused us of letting our dogs crap on their yard every day, and they stepped in poo poo and its ruining their lives apparently. Our dogs go out to poo poo on a tie-out that ties to our deck, which we have *repeatedly* measured to make sure they are no way capable of coming within 10+ feet of the neighbor's yard. Also, we stand in the doorway and watch them until they're ready to come back in so not only would it be physically impossible to reach their yard, I'd have seen them if they did it. Bonus points: our landlord owns his house too, so we have the same landlord, and he called her to tell her that our dogs run loose in his yard and crap on his lawn all day, resulting in a concerned call from her asking why my dogs are running loose and making GBS threads in yards. :cripes: *Every* time the dogs go outside, he either leers disapprovingly from his window or comes and stands on his porch with his arms folded, scowling at us. We're at the point where we feel like we have no privacy in, or use of, our backyard and we've only been here since the start of December.

We tried to have a polite conversation with him about it, but he is a big avoidant nerdlord baby and pretends he isn't home when we knock on his door. He also called our landlord to complain that we were leaving trash EVERYWHERE in our front yard, resulting in *another* upset call from our landlord wanting to know what the gently caress. Apparently, the "trash everywhere" was a 2 liter Coke Zero bottle, and a wadded up paper towel that the trash guys had dropped. We didn't see it because the trash had been picked up about 5 hours previously and I hadn't come home from work yet. I'm like, really scared he's making our landlord hate us which sucks because she's a cool lady and we really like the house.

Basically, dude is mad as hell that he stepped in some dog poo poo that was not mine, but I have dogs and exist, so it must be mine. He's a big gross nerd and his girlfriend looks like she hates her life. :thumbsup:

What do you think the chances are that this is new behavior? I'm pretty sure that the landlady knows he's a dick, but isn't up to speed on how much he exaggerates. My advice would be to be sure and consistently pay your rent on time or early if possible and maintain happy relations with the landlord. And definitely tell her about him being creepy when you are in the back yard and that you are uncomfortable using the back yard with him watching you all the time. The last thing a landlord would want is a renter driving another one away, especially a new renter who is likely paying higher market rates and always pays on time.

Moxie (dog I walk, not mine) had scared someone while we came down the elevator. When the door opened, he was taken back by her presence in the elevator and decided to take the next elevator down instead. I don't like to make fun of people who had a legit fear of dogs but because she is a Boston Terrier I couldn't help but snicker to myself about it.

My minpin is a cute healthy happy little dog who hates new or strange people, especially men, and merely tolerates them in public. But he understands this and when he gets nervous he stays close and quiet.

If you try to touch him he'll growl.

If you jump and yell in fear of the 7kg/15lb hell beast out of the blue he'll bark at you (ONCE) because you just scared the gently caress out of him.

In either case I'll laugh at you. Happens at least once a week in Tokyo where people seem to think dogs are either stuffed toys or murderous beasts because nobody bothers to train their dog or breaks them into miserable toys who tolerate anything in fear and wet themselves constantly. I once saw a GSD in a XL dog stroller and it hid from me when I made eye contact. It was wearing shoes and pants and a shirt. :(

He is a watchdog and is intended to be because I'm deaf in one ear and dead to the world when sleeping. I would prefer he not befriend strangers randomly and bought him for those breed traits knowing I had the time and patience to socialize him to "can be out in public and plays gently with other dogs at the dog park".

Mini rant. Sorry. :)
