Dog poo :(
 

Why the hell should i have to pick up rather chunky feeling dog poo from outside my property?

I assumed a part of my council tax went towards street cleansing?

Is it your dog that is leaving the mess? If so then it's part of the responsibility of being a dog owner. If not then I would look to find the owner of offending canine ;)

it does ;) , but you cant expect the local street sweeper to be outside your house 24/7 can you ;)

We don't own a dog so i can assure you it's not a mess caused by us. The offending turd was left for 3 days before i had to clean it up. I got tired of telling the kids to "dodge" that **** :(

Either do what Paul said, or use a Shovel...

If that's the case then I would keep an eye out for whoever is allowing their dog to do it and then either confront them or complain to your local council as it's an offence to allow your dog to foul on the street without picking it up and disposing of it. We have an idiot doing it round here and if I catch him he's gonna regret the day that mobile phones gained a camera ;)
Oh if the fouling problem is significant in your street then I would suggest asking the local council to clear it up as it's a health hazard. Streetcare or enviroment are normally the people to complain to if it's a re-occuring problem. Personally I'd like to find the culprit and deliver it through their letter box, well return to sender sounds fair to me :naughty:

Because a chunky dog left it there.

Yes it does, even though the council don't actually put the turds there in the first place, probably a dog owner from he next street. :)

Or find where he/she lives, and rent a farmer to "make a mistaken drop off" on 20 ton of cow dung.... right on there front porch :)

I am sure the shi.te would hit the fan then :D

Just swill it away with a bucket of hot water.

Thus speaks the voice of reason and pragmatic common sense. :D

A greenie for you....

we get it all over the street and up my driveway, the best bit is its from one house. They let their dogs out to do it all over the street, their next door neighbour complained last summer because the smell was so bad in the back garden, so its been the road ever since.

I have so far refrained from going over there, because I know what will happen.

Interestingly, the family is the ones who are campaigning for the hostel for homeless people in our street, and they are real do-gooders. They also work for some organisation helping the homeless......

What an example they set, they should be bl**dy homeless and kicked out of their rented house (paid for by benefits) :mad:

I found out yesterday that this estate gets it by dog owners from a neighbouring estate, they walk there dogs over here to crap & then walk back !

Mind you, from this estate, they walk thier dogs onto the canal, let them crap at thier earliest convinience & then walk home.
This means that I cannot find a single 1m stretch of towpath that is without at least 2 turds on, so cannot fish on it. Grrr!

Re: Dog poo :(
 

I would make the owners eat it if I caught them and then they would think twice, it is like when they pee on your wheel that really does take the biscuit!!

Re: Dog poo :(
 

If I see any actually crapping outside my door then I'll be straight onto them.

I'll go as far as following them to find where they live then returning thier crap to them (while wearing gloves). :D

I stand there and make them clean it up!!!!
