Default DOGS ON THE LAWN

I have seen a few items on Cats in this Newsgroup.

I have problems with Dogs!

Do anyone know anything in particulary that works for Dogs.

Many thanks.

but dogs are trainable, cats aren't

If they are your dogs, train them, if others the owners are responsible,
talk to them or catch the dogs and take them to the local compound.

The lawn and garden stores have dog repellents that are either sprayed or
spread on the edges of the lawn and the attractant posts. They work pretty
well as does the trichloro type of moth balls. Oils like cinnamon and such
will work as well. If you by chance see the dog and have your hose handy
spray it. Other than that when you see the dog and not the owner call the
warden about a loose dog. I have yet to find a real likable person when it
comes to dog's peeing on one's bushes. In fact the havahart site has some
of these sprays but I have not tried any of them.

Not sure this really gets the desired effect - both my dogs and all the
neighbors dogs (who don't roam into other people's gardens, btw) all love
the hose ! They think it's a game, especially in the summer. I fear you
might, depending on the dog, attract them with this idea rather than scare
them off.

Some of the pepper products work - for a while.

Most likely a word with the owner is the best idea. The dog shouldn't be
roaming anyway - and if he / she is straying onto your lawn whilst out
walking with their person/s you might like to remind the owner that dogs are
supposed to be leashed or at the very least under the owner's verbal control
in public places anyway, afaik.
