The Businessdog

H. Should a dog who does his business on your lawn be recognized as a businessdog?

D. Yes, but as his business is not really welcomed I wonder if it is a serious proposal for a commercial transaction.

H. Don't you think it was not the dog but his master who initiated the bid for a reciprocal exchange?

D. Yes, so it might be proper to turn to the dog's master as the director of the dogs business activity for whatever steps to take next.

H. How would you go about it?

D. As the initial proposal was dropped on the lawn without the dog's or owner's contact information, some investigative work may be appropriate. You find out the dog's and owner's name and address and you take the next step.

H. Which is?

D. You take the product the dog left on the lawn, you gift wrap it , and drop it off at the owner's front door with the following note: "Your dog Chucky left the contents of this parcel on a lawn on our block. I take this as an invitation to begin a business relationship. The next time Chucky does his business on our lawn please leave a note suggesting how we should develop our relationship."
