I got a letter from the village three months ago.  It said if I didn't remove the dog waste from my lawn I'd be fined.

I called the village and told them I didn't have a dog.  The guy told me it's my responsibility to keep my lawn clean.  I told him that I don't do any lawn work so I didn't know there was even a problem.  He then said they do property checks on random Friday mornings and I should do a property inspection of my own every Thursday night.  I told him that the lawn service comes every Tuesday, and that it was <dog waste> that I have to clean up after other people's dogs.  I then said if all I had to do was make sure the lawn was clean I was going to throw the dog waste into the street.  he told me that was a bad idea, but it would solve my lawn problems.

My neighbor has a dog, so after work on Thursday I get the mail from the mail box, take a piece of junk mail and use it to flip any dog waste onto his side walk. Then I throw the junk mail into the trash can by my garage.  I figure it would be easier for the property inspector to see it if it were on the sidewalk and after he gets a letter he’ll be less likely to not clean up after his dog.

I've only found (and flipped) dog waste on my yard once and I haven't received any other letters.

Besides the one letter, I have had no problems with my neighbor’s dog.  It’s a terrier of some kind.  I don’t mind the occasional barking and if it weren’t for the village’s threat to fine me I wouldn’t care, or even know about the waste on my lawn.  It’s a small dog, with small poop, and I don't use the front yard for anything.

My dog is certainly not retarded - not even sure what that means.  Do the dogs your sister breeds walk into walls or something?  What makes them "retarded"?

Awkward, clutzy dogs. No comprehension for anything other than themselves and your attention. Horrible with kids, mainly because they aren't even aware they are there most of the time (knock them over and such). Treat their puppies like crap. Stomp them, knock them over, mostly just oblivious to their existence unless you are paying attention to them instead of the mommy and daddy.

Of course, just because dogs are pure blood doesn't mean they are of a good bloodline. That is why I think AKC papers are total BS. She makes $250-$300 a pop for the puppies though, so more power to her. ;)

Not sure what the deal is with your sisters dogs, but here ya go: Dogs Good With Children.  The first on the list is Labrador Retriever, which if you read the description includes Golden Retrievers.

Also note the description down the page for Golden Retrievers:
Golden Retrievers are ideal playmates for children - gentle, affectionate and eager to please.

And here's a link about Golden Retrievers:
http://www.gopetsamerica.com/golden-retriever/golden-retriever.aspx

Note the "Personality" and "Suitability for Children" sections in the last link.

sharidan is right - they are nice to children but will accidentally hurt them if the kids are small.  They knock the kids down, run over them, etc.  They will never attack the kids.

Exactly.
Now my wife had a yellow lab growing up that was still around for her nephew to have until she died two years ago. That lab was absolutely awesome. She was as gentle as can be with kids. She also had a kind of sense when the nephew was doing something he shouldn't be, and would step between him and any possible danger. It was really a site to see. Kind to every single person. Accompanied us on walks and if another dog came around, she would get between us and the dog. That dog had the best personality of any dog I've ever seen.

I can agree with this, they are playful and friendly and may accidentally knock kids over.  But Sharidan mentioned they are horrible with kids - that is not true.

No, I was trying to say that these specific retrievers sucked with my sis in laws kids. They'd play fetch, but would get too excited and bowl the kid over when returning the ball. Then step on them a few times for good measure. I've never seen such clumsy dogs.

Well she did put on a few pounds in her later years, and did tend to let some offensive stinkers. ;D Another funny story about her. She would always take naps in the living room, and on a fairly frequent basis would rip off a loud one - so loud that she woke herself up. Then she would give the nearest person a dirty look and leave the room in an offended huff. It was funny as hell every time.

It's true.  I've never just started humping some random girl I thought was hot.  I think there might even be a law against it.  I have to make due with porn.  Golden retriever, 1, shmokes, 0.

However, I don't eat doorknobs, so I think that ties us up.  But I went to law school, which probably puts me back at a deficit.   :(

Dogs can bite a Mexican vagina and get away with it.

A bulldog...  That must have been a terrible way to die.   :-\

I was talking about this with a family member who still does train dogs (but not the tollers I previously mentioned) the other day... she said the usual rule is that if you are concerned about your child's safety relative to the dog you should not have a dog that weighs more than your child.

Family Pit Bull attacks and kills 4 year old

 :o :o

That wasn't a pit bull, it was an American bulldog.

Ah, my bad. I have a google alerts for "pitt bull", and the difference didn't register in the article. I originally read it in the article below, and it was referred to as a pit bull there:

They are closely related breeds.  If I had kids, I wouldn't want anything even resembling a pit bull around them.

That second story says Pitt Bull mix... that could be anything, depending on the breeder, from mostly Pitt to it having sniffed a Pitt's ass in the kennel.

That dog wasn't very well trained anyway.  An 80lb dog that jumps up onto visitors?  I'm not saying training would have necessarily prevented this but the dog wasn't taught proper limits.

I am finally calm enough to update on my pit bull situation. A long story short, the neighbor now has his dogs on shock collars and keeps them inside at all times. He was pissy and whiny with me at first after I called animal control when the dogs came after my wife in OUR yard. After I explained to him what happened and why I called, he didn't argue too much and I haven't seen the dogs since.

Of course, I did get the standard "oh these dogs are harmless. I wouldn't let dangerous dogs near my kids." I feel like printing off these stories I read and leaving them on his door.

Oh, and the final verdict on what the dogs are:
The pit bull according to the owner is a mix breed of pitbull and lab (---my bottom--- that dog has lab in her blood). The big dog, according to the owner is an american bull dog terrier. Guess what Mr dumbass irresponsible dog owner, ABDT are considered "pit bulls".

Anyways, here is an interesting historical read on pit bulls and/or bulldogs.
History of pit bulls/bulldog terriers
Of interesting note:
-Originally they were bred for violent tendencies towards other dogs, but also bred to NOT bite humans.
-Up until the 80's, they were considered great, loveable dogs.
- In the 80's previously unheard of pit bull attacks started to become common. The combination of overbreeding, poor (backyard) breeding, and poor training ownership led to the now common view of the breed in general.

Isn't it funny how when animals are bred for specific traits they also develop unexpected ones like that?

Oh wait, it's not, that's how livings things are.  They are independent and have minds of their own.

The dog came after your wife in your yard?   :o  Can we assume that no one was harmed?

She was next to the water hose, so she let loose on them. Yeah, she was in the back yard picking up some trash that the dogs tore up, and they saw her from their yard across the street and came hauling after her, growling and barking. Now odds are, they weren't going to full-on attack, but were simply "defending their turf from outsiders" with a stern show. I personally don't give a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. Dogs like that come tearing after you in that mood, the last thing I'm thinking is they want to be petted. That is simply ridiculous. I shouldn't have to live with that ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- on my own property.

Oh, and here is another classy quote from the owner and his wife trying to downplay their dogs. mind you, this was said right after I initially told them about the dogs coming after my wife:
"Oh, they just want to be petted. That big old meathead (the bigger dog) is too dumb to hurt anyone"

I am glad they are put up now, and am also glad about the shock collars. When I went over there to talk to them, the big dog was right outside the door, and let me tell you, that shock collar had knocked him down from "big dog" to "little dog". It was really kind of pathetic looking - he knew he'd been put in his place. I petted him and he was real nice. :laugh2:

Next step, of course, is to find yourself some remotes to those collars.

I don't know if they have remotes. It is one of those barking collars that zaps them when they bark or growl.

Ew, harsh, I hate those.  Good for you personally in this case, lazy ass terrible solution for the animal.  This owner sucks.  He shouldn't punish them just for being dogs.  They need to be taught proper limits... like a fence around his yard.

He has a fence in the rear, but they can get out due to a retaining wall on one side. I doubt the lazy ---fudgesicle--- will even walk them now. Sure I feel sorry for the dogs in a way, but my family comes first.

Family absolutely comes first.  They're not your animals, and if they were, the family would still come way ahead of them.

How well does this asshat take care of his kids?  I've found that most of the time, guys who don't take reasonable care of their dogs, don't take reasonable care of their kids either.  If the mother isn't doing all the work it doesn't get done.

Well, they have two kids - each from previous relationships. The little girl is his, and the little boy is hers. The owner works all day, then goes and works odd-jobs many nights of the week. (gotta pay for that brand new $30000 truck somehow, even though you just have a $7/hour job ::)). The wife works full time at a furniture store. She's really hot though. ;D

Nice people. Up until the dogs showed up, we were friendly with them. Then all the sudden, the whole neighborhood went on lockdown. The jackass who is President of the sub-division has a defeatist attitude and tells anyone who complains about anything that "nothing can be done about it - it's just the way it is". I've had it with that son of a ---smurfette---, but that is another story and I'm leaving his part in the dog drama out of it.

Sounds like you need a new President.

I'm so glad they don't have those stupid associations in MA.  I have read about them but can't say I've ever seen one here that wasn't in a nearly closed development that has actual shared property in the mix.
