and most importantly is there anything legal that I can be done for if I do it.

Tried to play football today at local park/recreation ground (which has football pitches marked out on it) and it was dodge the poo. Had to come home because the ball got poo on it Sad.

Our local regional country park has been doing this as a trial - spraying all dog poo in a 250 yard path bright pink (using biodegradable paint). Really highlights the problem. First day they sprayed over 130 poos!! by 2 weeks it was 1 or 2 a day if that....

I really think that people think "it is only one" but if they saw the extent of the problem they might rethink.

Will the police come knocking at my door (small village, someone will see me... kind of thing..)

I believe Guide Dog owners are the only people legally allowed to leave their dog poo behind.

Don't put flags in it -had a horrible walk with my god-daughter, aged about 3 at the time, when she dawdled a bit behind me - I turned back after a couple of seconds when I realised she wasn't next to me to find her picking up the 'pretty flag like on the beach.' No way of washing her hands (pre-parenting days, when I didn't have wipes stashed in every pocket or even the glove compartment of the car - unthinkable nowadays!). Rushed her home, cutting short what had been a lovely afternoon, pleading with her all the way not to put her hands near her face. Gross gross gross.....

Okay so I think I am going to have a campaign on this locally I think. I will email my councillors this week and the local community council. All the other mums at school will roll their eyes, as I'm always on about something - I think they think I am a bit of a loon!

Why resurrect a five year old thread about dog shit?

HelenaWay · 04/01/2017 15:39

So many zombie threads all the time.

BintyMcGinty · 04/01/2017 15:55

I think sometimes people don't check the date.
