GOOD IDEA! Too bad my other neighbors are kinda assholes.

They complain about our dog barking while we are gone, yet it sounds like they are moving dead bodies around their place EVERY NIGHT at like 7:30-8 pm.

I hate them

You heard anything yet?

that's just gross. I think your note wasn't rude or harsh at al..straight to the point. I have a Lab (big poops ! LOL) and i have a big backyard and my mom makes me pick up the turds even in the winter when nobody ever goes to the yard. That's just plain nasty, i'm sorry but imagine during the summer? with all the stupid mosquitoes standing on the turds, then they come to your house and bite u ? i mean come one, common sense clean that sh*t up, literally lol

 

[TISH1124]

Yeah, whats going on with the poo poo neighbor??

 

[MACLovin]

Oh what an inconsiderate neighbor!! And LAZY! You can't even get off your ass to walk your dog? They need exercise too, that's actually kind of cruel imo to tie him up on a chain and walk in his own accumulating filth.

She's a pig! Littering with cigarette butts too... yuck. Hopefully she'll get the message and clean up her disgusting mess. And if not, I'm sure the leasing office would be thrilled to learn of it.

People like that make me want to vomit.. you don't have a sprawling ranch, lady, you live in a damn APARTMENT complex with shared common areas. Have a little courtesy!

 

[jdepp_84]

Not harsh at all. You went straight to the point in a nice polite way. I've seen those scoopers for a freaken $1 at the dollar store! So price cannot be an excuse!

 

[Pascal]

No that wasn't harsh at all girl....

I agree with others, like how lazy are you. She stands outside smoking a cigarette while her dog goes out on a chain and poops. TAKE THE DAMN DOG FOR A WALK. The poor thing prob gets NO exercise except for in the house.

I would have just gone straight to the leasing office. I have AMPLE experience with dealing with shitty apartment neighbors. When you try to handle it yourself it can churn up some drama between you and the neighbor because she will eventually find out that it's you leaving notes. If you just go straight to the office and "politely" complain, they'll be on your side first and you'll have the upper hand. Just be super nice to them and kiss ass but be sure to get your point across about the issues with your neighbor.

I don't like to immediately jump on that bandwagon because maybe this woman just thought no one cared and this made her realize like 'oh shit maybe this does affect other people'. So I tried to go about it more with a 'heres a little warning before I go straight to the leasing office'.

Although I actually HAVE called the leasing office, just not specifically about her. I just told them that a few people don't clean up after their dogs and that if I knew who it was specifically to let them know. That was about a month ago, so since then it's gotten worse, especially with this broad.

I second this. My upstairs neighbors are dickheads, I seriously hate them. I recently had to complain on them and I went straight to the complex manager and let her know what was up.
BTW, my upstairs neighbors don't clean their dog shit up either. There are signs posted all over the grassy areas that all shit must be cleaned up and disposed of and they were letting their dog shit wherever she wanted so I reported them for that too and I notice that they go out now with a little baggie HAHA.

UPDATE::::::


I went over there today walking Oscar and didn't see any poop! I could even see a few little spots where you could tell it was either picked up or scooped up, whatever.

 

[Moxy]

Oh that's good news then!

Seems like your little note has worked. Way to go! I hope it stays that way.

 

[ImMACnificent]

Heheh, thanks to all you guys' support. <3

 

[jdechant]

I am so glad that letter resolved the issue! Now crossing fingers for ya that she doesn't get lazy again in a week!!

Girrrrrl, then I might pick up the poop myself and place it nicely and neatly on her back porch and have it spell out, "I HATE YOU"

LOL... that would be awesome.

Glad to see she's cleaned up a little, and hopefully it will continue! Or else she might get a flaming bag of poo on her doorstep a la Billy Madison.. "it's POOP again!"

lmao... i love that movie
