Thank you for your advice. But I was there a month ago more or less and it wasn't as the neighbor describe.
But what do you do when you ask tenants with courtesy to do things and they do not do it? The tenant pay the rent with no problem, so I always try to keep tenants who pay rent in time, It is easy to say evict a tenant but after you are stack with an empty house for severl months and bills to pay! I always try to solve the problems the most pacific way .

So are you prepared to have the health department fine you. Just because the T pays rent on timem but ignores the common rules that most pet owners would expect to do. Like cleaning up their dog's waste. Get ready to have to deal with flea infestation on the property and inside the unit as well.

Rules are in place for everyone involved. Allowing the T to break the rules to keep Them there. Will cost you in the end when they leave.

"The tenant pay the rent with no problem"

The first thing you need to do, as was suggested, was go investigate things for yourself. If you were there recently and things were fine, plus you have otherwise good tenants who pay on time, then this may be a case of 'nosy goddamn neighbor' syndrome. Especially if they're threatening to call the health department on YOU. These people are not your allies.

You may have a neighbor who doesn't like the tenants for some reason - maybe the dog barked once at 5AM, maybe they cook out in the back yard too often, maybe they don't like the color of their skin. You don't know until you go look.

Remember - the tenants are your concern, and your customers. Your neighbors don't pay the rent, your mortgage, or your bills. See what's going on before reprimanding the tenant. If there's too much dog waste in the yard, you have your answer. If there's no dog waste, or just one or 2 pieces lying around, you know where your problem is - the neighbor.
