In neighborhoods, where can leashed dogs walk? Can they go on the grass or must they remain on the sidewalk? And if they can go on someone's grass, how far? Of course, all poops are picked up
It will depend on the neighborhood rules and regulations as far as walking on the grass. I always let my dogs walk on the grass between the sidewalk and the street. I don't let them go onto someone's lawn.
Curb the dog as much as possible, at least until they poop! And female urine yellows grass and folks get pissed about it. I give my clients free range on common grounds but try to respect the home owners as much as possible.
Ask the dog's owner where they take the dog, and what idiosyncrasies there are in that area. one community with 400 units of pet friendly apartment homes where landscaping company takes care of the lawn, the dogs can go anywhere right up to the door of the apartment homes. Of course being mindful of people's flowers and herbs growing in pots is always appreciated.
