Dog poo

Except it was clearly a joke and nobody is suggesting this as an actual course of action.

So, maybe you could "wind your neck in" as the saying goes.

I'd like to believe you but there are people on these forums who are quite happy to suggest and take such actions

So as the saying goes you may shove your answer 'where the sun don't shine'

Please don't send pooey shoes to the council, The people that open the post are NOT the same people that leave the poo, we get enough unpleasant things in the post as it is, imagine opening a parcel like that!!!!
Please remember it is your neighbours who allow their dogs to foul the streets

This is a serious issue - dog poo can be infected with Toxocara Canis, which can cause blindness in humans.


There is urgent need for some regulation of dog ownership.
A dog Charity fundraising leaflet reports that they take in 300 unwanted, neglected or abused and abandoned dogs every week.

In my local area there have been two terrible tragedies in the last fortnight involving the death of a baby, and four puppies found in a cage in a shed with insufficient food and water. Two were just about alive, sleeping on the bodies of their dead siblings. They have been saved.

Exactly. Good post

For this very reason these uneducated, illiterate, selfish parasites need to be charged under criminal law.

Bring back the dog licence. £200 should cover the cost of registration of the dog and the owner and perhaps a doggie DNA test so that the poo culprits could be traced.

If you can't afford £200, get a goldfish instead.


£1500 fine if you're caught without a licence.

What makes you think being able to afford a one off £200 charge means you're automatically a decent person? Some of the people letting their dogs foul will have paid a lot more than that to buy a trendy breed or a 'status dog' as a puppy and the kind of people who are responsible owners who get them from the dogs home/RSPCA etc. might not be that well off.

I agree with the fines.

Wouldn't the reintroduction of a licence result in dogs being put out on the streets?
