Check to make sure that the HOA actually has the power to do this. As a land owner you are bound to follow the covenants that run with the land, but you are only actually bound to follow those covenants. You don't have to do random stuff just because the HOA board or even a majority of the HOA voters say so, you only actually have to do what's in the covenants.
Unless the covenants say that you agree to follow a bunch of dog-related rules to be defined later, you almost certainly are allowed to park your dog in your own front yard or in that of any consenting neighbor.
It doesn't look like HOA is telling OP, they can't have dog piss on their property and looks like at least residents are not interested in providing consent here.
I don't think there is any legal right for dog owners to have their dogs piss in public or private areas accessible to public.
Many people are tired of the increased costs other people's dogs impose due to piss damage.
Wtf are you talking about... a animal doesn't have the right to piss in public?? I really hope you did drop a /s. I'm going to assume you did, because this is not reddit etc...
Strange as it sounds, it's possible to stop animals pissing in public. Our HOA just installed laser turrets on every street to establish a no fly zone for birds, and birdshit has largely stopped.
There is a new problem of insect infesations and bird carcasses on people's properties though. Several people have been fined for leaving them there for more than an hour, but on the plus side that's helping pay for the turrets, which are EXTREMELY expensive to purchase, maintain and power.
There's also been an uptick of plane crashes nearby caused by sudden pilot blindness, but we're told that's an issue of personal responsibility on the part of the pilots. They've been advised to take regular eye tests.
Wtf? Please tell me this is satire.
Yeah. There's no way they're serious. The FAA would come down on that HOA like the CIA on an off the reservation drug cartel.
Animal is property, it has no rights per se. Dog owner has no right to take their property ie dog to someone's else property to piss and shit.
This rules limits members from having their own dogs pee on their own property. Literally you own a dog and now cannot allow that dog to go to the bathroom in the front yard you own and maintain.
