  • I live in Newquay Cornwall and there is poo everywhere (Most of it from dogs! We wont go into the other source!!) Do you think its too extreme to suggest that people who don't clear up after their dogs should be made to eat it???? ;)
  • This makes me really mad. Literally I hate walking my dogs in summer because everywhere is littered with dog poop. Comes to colder and wetter autumn/winter and the amount reduces significantly.

    Its another reason I want to move back out of city life. It is absolutely vile. I don't know what on earth some people are feeding their dogs, too..!!

    You can always tell dogs fed on Bakers, their poo is usually a sloppy bright orange, smelly mess...Yuk! The thought of stepping on that...:eek:

    Have you got a camera phone? Could you photograph or video the anti social behavior and show your local councillor, mp or similar?

    You dont live by me by any chance do you? We have the same problem. There have been letters written and placed on lamposts, there is both a school and a park on our road and it's just disgusting!!

    I agree with the Op but,
    Why are we talking about this in the marriage & relationship section ?
    Better here than in the pet section where it would probably turn into a dogs v people debate ;)

    Oops, you know I came here thinking where to post and thought as I have seen other post about neighbors this would be OK.

    My gran took it back round and placed it neatly on the doorstep with a note saying "this belongs to you".

    Stoped after that.

    There is always the famous 'flaming dog turd envelope' but i don't recommend that unless you want to be arrested :)
    What if there was no such thing as a rhetorical question?
  • Weird question I know, but does anyone know if it is ok to put human excrement in dog litter bins?

    From where I sit in my front room I can see the lamp post at the top of my drive. The neigbourhood dogs all stop for a sniff there. You can't see me from the street.

    You won't be surprised when I tell you that a good percentage of the dog walkers will look around to see if anyone is about before deciding whether to pick up the dog doos or not.

    My husband found a load of old polythene bags of dog doo in our hedge last year when he was doing some gardening out there. Didn't realise until he had it all over his hands.

    People moan about cats but dogs are as bad and perhaps even worse because although you can't control a cat, you can control a dog.

    Oh please Fufu you're not going to tell us you've been caught short and had to go behind some bushes in the park are you ?
