Default Grass to garden -- what's the best approach?

Dogs are another story. They train their humans to do antisocial or
illegal things.


eYOW! Whatta bizarre statement.

My dogs are trained as Therapy Dogs and visit hospitals, nursing homes and
handicapped children. (And one of my horses is going to do the same
soon.)
As for me, I've never even gotten so much as a speeding ticket. All in
all, my dogs and myself are pretty social and always law abiding, I think.



Admittedly, my negative experiences are with people who walk dogs in my
neighborhood. Even the so-called "good dog owners" who clean up after their
dogs are idiots. Why do I say that? Look at the brief conversation below and
tell me what's wrong with it. Scenario: Dog, on leash, taking a leak at the
perimeter of a flower bed that is two feet from the street.

Me: Excuse me, would you please NOT let your dog use my property as a toilet
in the future?
Dog criminal: Why?


That's it. What's wrong with the conversation?
