Rotten Neighbor Dog Could be Breaking the Law

Ever had your neighbor's dog take a number two in your yard?

There are two ways to deal with this:

1) If you feel like being nice, simply open up your own wallet and put up more fencing.

2) If you're feeling a little bit more courageous you can always casually mention that unleashed dogs on private property are fair game to be picked up and taken to a shelter.

Your neighbor's possible response:
" It wasn't my dog, how do you know whose poop that is?"
And this is what video and digital camera are for.

Either way, another dog's poo poses a lot of risks. There's health, if you own a pet they might get sick from eating it. And there's also the health of your lawn. A loose dog means an unwatched dog that can dig up plants and cause hundreds of dollars of damage.

Wow big surprise right? I kid, I kid.

But seriously, this (former) heiress thinks she can get away with anything.

How did police find out she had an illegal 17 dogs at her residence?
Did they do surveillance?
Send in an undercover team?
Bug her backyard?
Nope.

She openly admitted to it while on the nationally televised Ellen Degeneress show. Smart one!

Pet Law Changes in Manhattan

Watch out Manhattan! Animal control ordinance laws are being updated from their 1928 versions.

What are the proposed revisions:

- Every residence is only allowed 4 pets. But if you currently have more, you can keep them, but can not replace them.
-No livestock, wild, undomesticated or exotic animals
-Dog walkers must carry bags (for poo!) and must immediately dispose of the "said poo."
-Required $1 license fee and inoculations
-Citations will be given if debris or odors on their own property become a health hazard. (That would take a lot of poo!)
-Dogs caught running at large a second time must be spayed or neutered within 30 days, to make them less aggressive.
