My little pup definitely has favourite spots to shit - often it’s in front of a house he knows another dog lives in. It’s not exactly the same spot every time, but there are very much creatures of habit and I wouldn’t rule it out.

Grey text is looking out for their safety, good for them. Blue text is clearly communicating their boundaries, good for them. Neither is phrasing their needs as I would, but that’s small potatoes. I’d rather date either of these people than most of the ones replying in this thread.

I approve of asking for a source. I downvoted because they were a dick about it.
