Dealing with customers and dog shit

To use a modern expression, what I can’t get my head round, is those dog owners who do indeed clear up but they store it in those thin supermarket bags just inside their gate, usually about 20 all filled and knotted, lined up against the fence stinking and fermenting to high heaven.

As if they mean to take it somewhere, but haven’t got around to it during the past 3 years.

The people who are out and about who put it in a small black bag to preserve it ( whilst adding more plastic to the earths surface ) and hang it on a tree , for ever .  They would be better off just leaving it where the dog shat it and letting the slugs and nature break it down .

Yes they bag it up, when someone sees the dog crapping, and then when out of sight dump it.

 

I walk 3 dogs a few times a week and if they crap on a path or a park I always bag it and carry it home, if out in the woods or common, even though I should I don't bother.

Don't get me going on cat shit, at least the dogs only do it in their own garden and not the neighbours freshly prepared veggie patch!!

Exactly - every spring I sort the raised beds out for planting and the neighbours' cats think I've just sorted them a fresh latrine.  Ah but they're cats they say and they can't help but shit where they want.  But somehow they can be trained to shit in a litter tray or go outside and not shit in their own house.  Bloody bastards they are!

We once turned up to a pretty posh house and their were dog eggs all over the garden.

 

The lady of the house, proper city type was getting ready for work.

 

I knocked on the door and explained the situation of the eggs.  I said do you have a pooper skooper as we can’t work with it like that?  All polite she says, sure no problem.

 

She found the skooper and walked over to me and tried to hand it.

 

She looked quite upset when I told her it wasn’t my dog so I wasn’t picking any off them up.
