Guest Anonymous Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I am new the world of dogs. We just moved into our first house and will be getting one soon. My question is one regarding a dog in our neighboorhood who uses our front lawn to do his business. I have been very watchful to try and catch it, or its owner in the act, but have been unsuccessful. Is there anything I can put on or near that area of grass that will repel this dog? We have three small children who play there and it is definitely a health hazard, besides the fact that it is ruining our lawn!! I am disgusted that the owner would be this irresponsible and I am hoping to have a chat when I find out who they are. Please Help!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferky1 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Can't offer any specific advice except to see this thread: [url]http://forum.dogomania.com/viewtopic.php?t=12997&highlight=pepper[/url] Looks like you aren't the only one with this problem.

courtnek Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 after he drops his "load", sprinkle it and the area around it with black pepper. NOT red pepper!! The dog will usually sniff near the spot he went last. He will then explode in a sneezing fit, and will most likely decide your lawn isnt the place to be. It only takes a couple times of black pepper exposure to put the dog off. And it wont hurt the dog at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

courtnek Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I have used it on dogs that made "deposits" in my front yard. After the second or third sneezing fit, the didnt like my yard anymore. Also, I had to smear it with water on the shed, cuz it's wood and Alex kept peeing on it. Stopped him cold, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
