How would you address this?

Or wait till it rains.

Just wash the area and get over it for goodness sake.

Good job some of you don’t live in Australia. Kangaroo poo all over the place.

Or play golf in Australia!

Just throw a bucket of soapy water on it.
I don’t think there’s much you can do really.

Agree with the answer of soapy water really.

Good job some of you don’t live in Australia. Kangaroo poo all over the place.

Oh yes, I meant wee not poo!

Although the thread meandered on to poo as well.

It seems some people get annoyed about the most trivial things. I can understanding someone feeling cross about dog poo but wee - I don't get it.

You might be better starting a new thread, ARlam1972

This one's about dog poo.

New to this site. I am desperate for advice on the stressful situation I have with my Son, daughter in law and 2 toddlers living with us. The kids scream and cry about everything!! From moment they wake until bedtime. Few peaceful moments to be had here. Love them, want the best for them but we are at our limit!! How do we tell them it's time to get a place of their own

NanO if your remark is to my post, I was picking it up as she spoke to me. I always pick up after my dog and even pick up other poop when I see it just left.

Happens all the time now round here, everyone has big gardens but some can’t resist hanging dog poo bags on branches. Never heard of anyone being fined the £1000 fine ever. If they did we would clear the National Debt a lot quicker.

I have a relative who got really fed up with a dog walker who allowed his big German Shepherd to poo outside his house almost daily, he followed the man to his home one day, and then started to collect the poo in a carrier bag, and after a few days, made his way to the house under cover of darkness, and deposited the contents of the carrier bag on the pathway leading to the front door. The man never walked past his house again, no proof who it was but must have decided a new route was needed. Don't suppose with all the door ring bells these days he would have got away with it !!

Personally, I would have pulled my dog off your drive and encouraged it to go outside of your property boundary. A bowl of soapy water or tomorrow’s rainfall will wash it away.
Dogs will always pee against trees and fence posts. But its polite not to allow them onto someone’s property.

Why couldn't you pick up the poop in a bag and take it home and put it in your rubbish bin?

Ughhh...... Way too many irresponsible dog owners out there!!

I don’t mind dogs peeing on my grass but I do object to the disgusting humans who use the single track road I live on as a toilet both for number 1s and 2s. I have you all on CCTV so one day I might just go public.

Dogs pee that’s easy have your bucket ready next time it happens walk towards him and throw your water on the ground giving him a stern look he will soon get message. Peeing doesn’t bother me but poo does. If you catch them take photos and send it to your local council

I doubt cat owners fetch their cats into peoples gardens, though.

At least dogs don't come into your garden and poo..unlike cats!

It wouldn't be acceptable to me as it is your property. Confrontation can be difficult especially with the type or person who would just stand by and allow this to happen anyway. Maybe a small fence?

Can you not have the area fenced in? If not then nothing you can do really. Pot bleach over the spot to deter other dogs in the future. If you see him again then go out before his dog comes on your property and just tell him you’d rather his dog stayed on the path and didn’t pee on your drive. Be polite, smile, if he gets annoyed just reiterate that it’s your prophet public land and walk away.

I saw a lady with an Irish wolfhound, as big as a small horse. She had it on a retractable lead, full length, letting in wander across all the open plan lawns in front of some bungalows. Next thing, as he’s passing a doorway, he cock’s his leg up and pees all up the front door! Absolutely disgusting! When we were in Cornwall, my daughter and I had 3 dogs between us, 2 Cavapoos and a Jack Russell. A lot of the shops are dog friendly but my grandson wanted to look in a designer shop. When asking whether the dogs were welcome, the lady said as they are bitches she doesn’t mind. She’s had to stop people bringing in male dogs as they casually cock their leg and pee all over the clothes - awful for her. Why can’t owners of male dogs teach them that it’s not ok to pee inside, up someone’s leg, etc?

I agree with the OP being about the dog owner's attitude rather than it being about the dog pee itself. Had a similar experience with an arrogant bloke who allowed his dog to wander across our front lawn - while I was actually in the front garden. When I remonstrated with him, he said I should take it up with the dog, not him! Shame I didn't have the hosepipe out at the time to water the garden......

undines......as I stated in my original post, it was the dog owners nonchalant attitude that irked me. Yes, I am acutely aware of all the other creatures that could pee, poo, and vomit wherever they chose. I was not making a big fuss about the dog pee, I was bloody annoyed about the bloke who thought it was fine to allow the dog to come onto the drive in the first place.

As soon as I was dressed the drive was swilled down, that was easy; what isn't so easy is educating Joe Public in what is acceptable behaviour.
