First of all,whoever is complaining against you as far as the dog pooping thing goes~has absolutely no proof it is you. You need to make this clear to management that you are in fact not the only one with a dog,and that unless someone actually videotapes you not picking up your dog poop~ it is but their word against yours!
Second,tell them you strongly dont appreciate being accused of smoking when you do not! And dont be nice about it! Tell them if they want to pay for you to have a physical or bloodwork drawn to prove it,you will,but other wise get off your back!
And finally,invite the management to come visit you at 11:30 at night to see you in fact are not playing music.
I have found that sometimes,you have to complain about people who complain about you.Someone complained we leave a Floodlight on all night and it disturbs their sleep.They left a note on the door,but didnt bother telling me who they were.
I complained to the rental office that it wasnt my light,that is was in fact installed by maintaince as a measure of security.Because why the heck would I have a flood light on all night???
Dont let these people bully you.Stand your ground. Tell them you'll go over THEIR heads (if you can~write to a corparate office maybe)
Good luck.

"Management is threatening me, and I'm getting furious but short of collecting my dog's poop for them, letting them sniff my apartment for signs of smoking, and keeping a recording on sounds from my apartment..how do I prove myself? "

Tell management that you are tired of being unjustly accused and are keeping a record of each and every unsubstantiated complaint they send. Tell them if they don't get off your back (or at least let you face your accuser) you will be contacting your tenants association and/or an attorney to file a harassment complaint of your own.

You can also have the stray dog poop analyzed to see is if it matches YOUR dog's DNA.

Sorry, you said "My dog poops about 3 times a week"

Where can I get a dog like that? I am almost 50 years old and have had dogs my entire life. They poop after breakfast and poop after dinner daily. If they don't poop at least once a day I worry.

My guess is your dog goes more than you think. Ignore the cell phone and watch.

I'm guessing the manager or complainer has the wrong unit. Kindly let mgmt know you don't smoke and you do pick up your dogs droppings. Ask them to talk to the complainer and get the right unit number.

This is exactly what is happening to us with the dog poop. We have a psycho neighbor who says that my teenage daughter doesn't pick up my dog's poop. Where's the proof? Now my landlord says that there's been multiple complaints about the dog poop and we have to pay $100. Is this really legal?!? I hope someone reads this even though the original post was 3 years ago.

Thanks

Your dog must be sick. I have never heard of a dog that only poops three times per week. ALL my dogs have pooped at least 2 times per day.
