Dogs/neighbors, A crappy situation.

[purpless77.livejournal.com]

My friend lives a few streets over and she's been having a lot of problems with her neighbors and their dogs. First the neighbors were walking their dogs through her drive way. She spoke to them more then once telling them to stop and after speaking to them even caught them running off from the driveway once they saw her coming. She doesn't have a problem with them or dogs and didn't want to cause any. But also didn't want the smell and stains of urine and her land lord might assume one of them has a dog when none of them do as it is private property.
Now someone is throwing bags of dog crap into her drive way. Though she has an idea of a few it could be, with so many dogs now in the area she isn't 100% sure. There are also a few apartment buildings around and she isn't exactly sure of the exact apartment IF it is one of them. There are a few other suspects in the neighborhood as well. What if anything could she do about this? She was going to call Animal control but doesn't want to call on the wrong person. Should she report it anyways?
Thanks for any advice I can pass onto her.

From what you've said elsewhere, the driveway is not a standard driveway. Walking in or through the driveway may or may not be considered "tresspass": that's for the police and the landlord to decide after looking at the thing. Also, remember that poop bags are emminently "tossible" so it may be a litter thing, or it may be termed "illegal dumping". 311 is a good idea. I hope it can be cleared up. (as for my issue, I just stopped walking my dog. It was a poor decision, since I like walking around. But she was becoming quite irrational, like if she saw me out with the dog she'd drive her car down the street REALLY FAST and I thought she was going to run me over!)

So, you're saying that you believed that this person attempted vehicular murder, and you didn't call the police?

Are you insane?
