I need assistance with this asap cuz usually once I get back from home I walk my day and unfortunately her ass is the one that picks the spot to poop.
So the "problem" is this. Every morning, after and night I walk my dog and she always pees on my tree belt but has preferences with pooping in my other neighbors road verge We trained her to never do any of her bussines on anyones lawn but is ok for the tree belt since is public access. And at the end we carry poop bag with us ALL THE TIME, so her poop always gets picked up. Because I would hate for others to let their dog do that on our and leave it there too.
Well today my partner walked her in the morning (it was like 5:37 am) and he told me that the lady neighbor as soon as she saw our dog squat down she called him telling him to come to her and explained to pls stop letting our dog pooping on her tree belt that it gives her anxiety. That she and her husband try their best to keep their front lookin well that it gives her anxiety all the time. My partner told her that we pick it up all the time but she was like well that even after we pick it up the residue of poop remains sometimes. Mind you if I know my dog has diarrhea or very soft poop we don't let her do her bussines anywhere else but our backyard. Now we would like for her to do her bussines back there but our backyard is small, doesnt have a fence and like stayed before her butt chooses where to go, and she for some reason doesn't like the back yard. Now she only goes onto out backyare only when she has bad digestion. And if we take her out the back for her to do her bussines she will take longer than 30 min and unfortunately I work early and don't have much time to do more than 30 min outside.
Anyways, my partner told me that. She asked me not to let my dog use the road verge because it gives her anxiety (I get that and tbh we all have anxiety) but I always pick up after my dog, so I’m unsure if it’s reasonable to avoid a public area for that reason
So Reddit wibta if I let my dog keep pooping there.
(Just incase we walk our dog for a whole 30 min usually a walk on our block and each time and she chooses where to poop. The first time we got her she did it on our road verge Then only on the neighbors 4 houses down on the right and now only on that neighbors house)
Edited the word tree belt cuz I was using wrong word is the road verge.
