A Greeting Fit For a Queen

Almost nightly, I am greeted at some point by this warm welcome

There is just one problem...it's not my dog. This is yet another reason why I despise dogs. Sure I have animals of my own, and two kids. But neither my cats nor my boys Poop in YOUR yard, Bark at your KIDS, or cause a rank stench on hot summer days -that wafts over the fence, evidence of numerous piles of dog poop, left unattended in the summers heat.

Have I mentioned that I don't particulary like dogs?? Sure it's not the dogs fault, it's the owners. But it's only a misdemeanor if I throw things at the dog, while assaulting the neighbor -depending on how its done, could result in a felony.

The best part though..is the fact that you can SEE the dog over MY fence. Do you know why that is? Its because the dog stands on his dog house, looking over MY fence into my home and yard. I have a work day coming up, that I will be home during normal business hours for the local Animal Control Center. How hard do you think it would be to convince the dog OVER the fence and into my yard? Once in my yard, he is my dog, on my property. Physical custody of something is 9/10th's of the law. So, if I called Animal Control to come and get the dog...bye bye doggy greetings!
