to think that the dog

[ModreB]

should be able to get herself in the damn shower, and then shampoo herself after she has rolled in horse dung?

DS3 thought that it was hilarious that I was heaving and retching and trying to shower the dog at the same time.

Or am I BU to think that horse riders should carry big poop a scoops like I do for the dog?

YANBU. Once she has figured it out can you send her here to teach my dog, who stays white for all of, oh about 30 minutes, after his showers.

I've also wondered why it is acceptable to leave horse shit in parks?

This was on the path outside our house! And I live in the middle of a large city!

She managed it on a flexi lead as I was stood locking the door behind me...................

Interested to know where you live, there's always piles on the street here, usually in the actual road though because they're horse and carriage type things.
Stinks, especially in summer. They should have to clear it up..

Skyrg -I live in Manchester. I have a suspicion that it was a police horse, I have seen them many times "parked" on pavements around here, chatting "interacting with the community".

Ah, stupid police centaurs. Can't be practical if there's actually a problem...
It's worse when there's several of them, honestly, they make huge piles and then cars drive through it...
