Dog poop on our doorstep

Some dog owners are lazy and uneducated! Otherwise they woudl be resposible and pick up their dogs poop? They are dirty and no more than animals themselves! I walked down a road yesterday to see 5 big piles of it! Do these dog owners live in their own mess? They should if they don't!!!! See how they like it then???????

You complain about dog poop on your doorstep. What about chihuahua pee on your nasturtians? Or Martian poop from a bunch of extra-terrestrial thugs who have landed in your neighbourhood? At least these guys' pee is totally free from bacteria and other life-threatening diseases. Don't trust the Poles. They will have drunk kefir before letting loose their bowels on your front garden. Or Mongolian cooking which I cannot describe as being a vegetarian meat-free diet.

If it is happening on a regular basis you need to set up a video camera in the window or a cheap CCTV system outside your house.

then once you find the culprit, you should be able to work out when they will next pay you a visit. and you can film it, go outside with the cam and ask if they are going to pick it up, hand them some bags so they have no excuse, if they don't do it you can hand the evidence into the dog warden you said about, and shame them on the internet too!

has anyone else noticed that when you do bin the poo in these concil owned bins they are absolutly over flowing.Golden acre park in leeds being an example on sunday 27th every single bin looked like it had not emptied for a week! bags of turds were hanging on trees around the bins and just slung on the floor.Result was my bag of poo had a lovley walk and was then put in the car and got rid of in the wheelie bin at home.

I cannot understand what the big deal is about picking up dog poo ! How hard is it for goodness sake to carry a few plastic bags in your pocket and scoop it up and carry it home, or place it in the bin.

We have a particular revolting set of people round here who neatly pick up their dog poo, but then just dump the bags, poo and all, in the woods, in the trees, in the ditch, anywhere but ... God forbid ... take it home with them and dispose of responsibly!

I can't understand how anyone would want to begin a gripe on dog poop on our doorsteps.

I thought we all loved a straddled dollop of fresh, steaming hot poop on our doorstep. Yer just can't beat it can yer?

It's more enjoyable when you get personal with some and step in it. Look at the benefactors. You can trail it through the house and introduce it to the carpet in the car.

Owners that don't pick up after their dog are just deplorable, irresponsible, low-life degenerates. Some small child may come along and acquire some illness or disease.

The only civilised way to deal with them is beat them with a rhino whip. Let's face it, chances of them being fined are minimal. You can't educate pork.

Stuck Picking Up, maybe you should exchange the fake CCTV for a real one, I'm sure you wouldn't have to spend much but it depends how badly you want to shame them really!

I have an identical problem! At least I'm not the only one! I live right by a large field and there are bins and signs, similar to those around your house. My front door opens onto the pavement and there is always dog poop within a foot of my door. I've tried everything (even my own signs and offering bags as well) and eventually installed a fake CCTV camera, like SpyMad suggested, but its still there.

I imagine solutions while I walk my own dog like a giant game of mousetrap that drops a net, fingerprint dust that illuminates under black light like on CSI, or a trap door of some sort. Perhpas I let my imagination wander a bit. Seriously though I'd love to get photographic evidence, blow up the picture and put graphics like an old wanted sign, and put it in my front window or around the neighbourhood. It might not stop it, but perhaps it would shame them.

Ritual extermination of all dogs is the answer. At least cats have the decency to sh*t in your flower bed and bury it. People complain about the little dears but you never have to step in what they leave behind do you. Long live the hyper-intelligent cat! Down with the thick as sh*t dog.

How about a small CCTV camera so you can identify the culprit whether your at home or not? - Even a fake camera is a deterent...
