So the wife and I just bought a house and have been living here for exactly a Month Now.

This morning I' took my dog (A bichon) out and went to grab something from the garage. I come back out and my neighbor from across the street's dog (A doberman) has run across the street and is peeing on my dog. Did I mention that my yard is 100% fenced in and their yard is not at all? Did I also mention that this is the 3rd time this has happened since I've lived here?

I want to go over to their house and say something about their dog running loose and peeing on my dog because I think both are bull shit especially since my yard has a fence.

My wife doesn't want to cause problems with the neighbors, so she doesn't want me to say anything.

What should I do?

I would surely say something to them in a heartbeat or soon the dog will be peeing on you.

Tell the neighbor that you love your new neighborhood, you love them and their dog, but as Bum Phillips said "You caaant let that happen , or you are gonna have more hell over it than a little bit"

Just tell them that you would like them to watch their dog does not do it again, and invite them over for a few of their favorite beverages of choice. Kill em with kindness.... or kill the doberman LOL

Head up to their door with the ol bird out, aimed, in the ready. Knock, when they answer fire away at them pissing wherever you can on em. Then zip up and walk away like it was no big deal!

Woah woah woah.

I have every intention on saying something before I leave for work today. I just didn't know if I should actually listen to my wife or tell her to get back into the kitchen.

Dogs take on the owner's personality. Sounds like you're dog's a sissy, what does that make you? ;)

Yeah, what she said!

WTF is wrong with your dog to let the Dobie do that to him? Just because he's smaller doesn't mean he has to be submissive!

Feed him some gunpowder and make him watch Chuck Norris movies! ;)

Our dog does that to our neighbor's dog on occasion, but both of our yards are fenced in and the dog stands there and doesn't move. I think we may be looking at some mental issues here. I would say something but not let it sound like the next move will be to lob an M-80 into their yard and "duck and cover". Be nice...if that doesn't work, I'm not sure what I'd recommend.

I have a problem with my neighbor's dog shitting in my yard. I don't have a dog and I take pride/care of my grass and landscaping. I also have 3 children who love to go outside and play in the yard. It's a problem, and much like you...my wife doesn't want to cause problems with the neighbors. She'll talk shit behind their back...but when I say that I'm going to say something to them about it....I catch hell.

I take a different approach. I take the time to rake/pick-up all of the shit (which I shouldn't) and then I carefully pile it up right next to their front steps (in the grass, not on the concrete walk). It's frustrating, especially since I am not a dog owner. I can nearly fill up a 5 gallon bucket halfway with shit each time I mow (twice a week).

And for the record, we have watched on numerous occasions my neighbor's open up their door...let their dog run out and into our yard and pop a squat. They do nothing.

The fact is, your neighbor should be more responsible (as should mine). If you want to have a dog, you need to be responsible for every action. Some people are flat out irresponsible (and lazy). Actions speak louder than words. If you want to not piss off your wife, but send a message to your neighbors...come up with an "action plan," and carry it out until your neighbors derives a solution from your hints.

What are you doing when the neighbor's dog runs up and pees on your dog? Do you just stand there and let it happen? Just curious...some more information may help form an "action plan."

Well first off the dog is a girl.

Me wife got her when we were still dating. It's pretty typical she refers herself as momma and me as dad as well as clothing her. She is the typical little bitch dog that every woman has these days.

This is what I do (when I see it because the way our yard is, I can't see behind my garage, which is where this occurs, when I'm in the house or even the back deck) I see the dog running over here, so I yell at my dog to get over here, but she is too interested at the big dog running across the street. I walk over to grab her, but as I get there the leg has already lifted. I guess I need to be more specific the street is more like an alley/ kind of narrow. The nice thing about having a fenced in yard is I don't have to monitor my dog when she goes out.

I don't think I should have to train my dog to stay away from a spot on the yard if there is no need to (flower bed or something like that), I don't think I need to watch my dog walk around in my fenced in yard.

Like I said, this is the 3rd time I've seen it happen, so it happen more frequently when I'm not outside with her.

I guess I could run to her as opposed to walking to her.

You've got bigger problems than the dog getting pee'd on, you married the wrong woman.

Take a can of mace out with you and the next time spray him. He won't pee on your dog again.

Why don't you video this happening if you can catch it? Or call the dog warden? I'm sure there are laws for dogs running off leash.

I wouldn't waste my time talking to them about it. Chances are they'll do it all the more if they know it bugs you. People today have no manners!

I vote for this. You need to train the neighbors dog to stay out of your yard. (They should be doing it, but they're not.) If not mace, maybe a squirt gun/bottle filled with bleach. It won't take him long to learn that he's not welcome.
