Dogs in the shared garden.

My mum shares a back garden with 1 other neighbour, it’s a small slabbed area. Neighbour has a dog, there has been issues and relations have broken down over the lack of cleaning and lack of control.

Neighbours boyfriend has now moved in and he also has a dog, so now 2 dogs in the shared area which has become their toilet area.

Maybe it’s just me but surely if you only have a shared area you really shouldn’t expect neighbours to live with your choices?

Mum owns and neighbour rents from private landlord. My mum has brought the issues up with landlord but she’s also not bothered?

My mum is sick of standing in puddles of dog pee and only goes out the back if necessary now as both dogs are free in the garden.

There is plastic fencing she could use. People use it indoors and outdoors to keep babies and pets out of areas they shouldn't be in. She could fence off her area pretty easily.

They eat dog poop.
