Dog owners don't usually let their dogs poop on neighbor's lawns. We have strict leash laws in NYC and I've rarely seen loose dogs walking the streets in my neighborhood.The curb grass is not the property of the home owners--it's owned by the city. In fact, the city often owns part of people's front lawns and many owners aren't aware of that fact because the city hasn't had a reason to claim it..yet. The reason they do so is in case they ever have to widen the streets, they can claim the property to use--also if they have to fix the streets, they don't have to ask you if they want to pile materials on your curb grass.

Cat poop is as bad, if not worse than dog poop, especially if you are growing vegetables in your garden--it can get you sick.

The same with all wildlife that parade through a garden that isn't fenced off.

Well I hate to tell you all what organic farms use to fertilize the fields. I can remember the familiar smell of manure spreaders in cornfields in the Spring. So much for clean country air.

When caring for a client I was observing her mobile manicurist taking her to another room to be paid. I was concerned. I alerted the family to look into their mother's checkbook and what a shock we found. An $85 service was paid for by check in the amount of $300. The family instructed me to be on my toes the next week to see if the manicurist took my client into another room to be paid. I had asked the manicurist what her fee is and she said, "It varies." I was instructed to ask her this by the family. I asked her what the range is for a manicure and pedicure and she said "$85 and up." The client was again asked to pay $300.
The family went to the salon where the manicurist was employed and reported her to the salon owner. The manicurist was asked to return the overage and she was reported to her State Board. It is very common for elders and those who are vulnerable to have their innocence exploited. We have to be their advocates and always challenge injustice. If the landscaper is asked to give you a quote for service and you get that quote in writing, all parties will be better off. I do agree that $52 is a fair rate for landscaping. Just know ahead of time what you are going to be paying for. You can always ask that the work be customized, minimized etc.
