I f’n HATE this! The only thing that put a damper on the beautiful run I did Sunday morning was having to actively watch out for dog poo. It’s not like the lake I was running around is occupied by wild dogs. The only time dogs are around that lake is when their owners walk them, so all of that dog poo was left behind by asshole, selfish owners.
Fuckers.
Because my dogs are not always in places where there is brush. 95% of the time, they are pooping in my yard, and since that’s their fenced in yard (we call it the “dog yard”) anyone who walks in there better be expecting poop!
Side note, the last 3 days I have been on poop watch with one of my dogs, cause he’s constipated. So watching to see if he poops, and whether it was poop pellets or whatever. I’ve been going home for lunch so I can watch my dog poop!
And shit.
I personally would be fine with your dog crapping off trail. However, you better check your (state/national) park rules. My ex-husband hiked places here in WA that require you to bury your dog shit, just like you would bury your own. Leave no trace, and all that.
and shit
Nah. He just trolls the pit bitching about people who post here.
So let me get this straight. You come into a thread about owners not picking up their dog’s poop and threadshit all over it?
The irony, she burns.
There’s a guy in my neighborhood (in which municipality it’s in the civil code to pooper-scoop; $200 fines, but try getting enforcement) who’s thinks he’s being clever by having his dogs go, not on the sidewalk, but in between parked cars. So, he ends up putting exactly where people least expect it. Yours is an interesting question though, being off in the woods though, where a bear does his thing.
I’ve stepped in piles o’poop at least five times. One was so large and mushy, I nearly fell after I slipped. And there was no grass to wipe it off on. I scraped as much as I could off on the curb, but I’m sure some still made it into the house and onto my floors and carpets.
The death penalty is too lenient for fuckers like this. If you want the pleasure of having a dog, take the responsibility of cleaning up after it. The world is not your litter box.
And what would you have to post about if you wasn’t here complaining about smokers stinking, dogs shitting, and imaginary trolls trolling, I wonder?
Threadshitting in the Pit? That’s an… interestingly stupid concept.
Bunnies. And skyscrapers.
The mark of a good troll is knowing when to draw the line. You have to stay believable. Looks like Ivan screwed up and crossed that line today.
Nobody here believes for a second that you come down on the side of people who leave dog shit lying around. Just give it up.
You think people are idiots for stepping in dog shit on a sidewalk. Either you’re a retard (in which case, the people at the group home should take away your Internet access) or you’re deliberately being a jerk by defending something that has no defense (and is against the law in most localities).
I think he’s the guy who used to be a criminal and blamed crime on people who left their windows/doors unlocked, thus tempting otherwise blameless crooks into lifting stuff. To put it into perspective.
Nah, you’re giving him too much credit. **Lab **has it right.
Yes I do. I find dog-shit to be no more offensive a sight than some drunkard vomiting on the sidewalk/pavement*, ie. not at all. It’s going to rain at some point, and wash it away, so what’s the big fuss? Oh, that’s it…children might pick it up and rub it on their eyeballs, shock, horror.
All right. Smokers smell like a bed of roses and dogs crap nothing but strawberry ice cream, and other things you learn on the Dope.
Like I said, nobody is buying it.
You don’t have to buy it; I’m giving it you for free.
People who get their panties all bunched up over a bit of dog-shit, are pathetic losers who need to find a more worthwhile cross to nail themselves upon.
The irresponsible dog owners around these parts have elevated leaving their dog’s shit lying around in public areas to a new level; they put it in a bag, now, and leave the bag lying there. :smack:
While we’re bitching about dogs, I’ll just add my perennial complaint about dog owners in off-leash areas - off-leash doesn’t mean out of control. Your dog MUST still be controlled in an off-leash area, or it doesn’t get that privilege. When I’m walking on the multi-use path that goes from my house to my local grocery store through the off-leash area, your dog should not be bothering me and my groceries.
It’s actually getting less believable at this point.
