Hello,
I am a dog owner and was walking home along Pinckney St. tonight as my
neighbor was washing down her granite steps. She was distraught
because a dog has been peeing on her steps every day for the last few
days. They are not dog owners and are very upset that an owner would
not curb his/her dog, which I can understand. Other than catching the
dog / owner in the act -- does anyone know of a cleanser she can use
on her granite steps to eliminate the urine odor and hopefully cut
down on the dog(s) marking? Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Marilyn Richardson

Funny…I live in Back Bay on Comm. Ave and usually see college kids and homeless dudes peeing on the sidewalk, building walls, and steps, mostly after the bars close at night, although sometimes earlier. Thought this was normal for Boston since moving here 5 years ago. I bet the Zero Odor would work for that too! To discourage the dog, you can’t do much other than not allow him to pee there by pulling him/her away and rewarding him to pee somewhere else (like on grass) with treats for positive reinforcement. Cheers.

discourage repeat?
Zero Odor, available online and
at Bed bath & beyond works as well (for any odors on any surfaces). It is
not a deterrent.

Exactly what I was thinking. She lives in a city - she should consider herself lucky if it is in fact a little dog pee, rather than human pee. It's kind of sad that she has nothing more in her life to concentrate on than washing down her steps. :-(

I'm not a granite expert, but your neighbor needs to eliminate the scent as well as clean. Use a granite safe cleaner and then disinfect cautiously with vinegar or diluted ammonia. Garlic powder is a deterrent for animals in general, I used it in my garden to deter rabbits.
