It's not OK to put your dog crap in my wheelie bin

604 replies

The bin men have changed our collection time its now late afternoon. DD2 and I went to the post office and when we came back bin emptied. All good so far. DD2 asks are we going to take the bin in but because I couldn't be arsed to wash my hands yet again, I said no leave it. Then I forgot about it until next morning.

Next morning went to retrieve bin and throw a black sack in and there in the bottom was ...... a package of dog poo.

Why?

If I wanted dog poo in my bin, I'ld have my own bloody dog. I am now the custodian of poop for a week. Why should I be just because I didn't take my bin in quick enough.

I suspect it was the woman who deliberately brings her greyhounds to the small greenward in front of my house to let her dogs have a crap and piss up the cherry trees. She lives about 2 minutes walk away. I suppose the doggy brigade will say be thankful she bags her dogs poo. So why then be so inconsiderate as to dump it in my bin.

Yes I'm annoyed.

The OP is at home, stirring her cauldron and cackling in glee.

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 19:24

At least it wasn't an elephant poo. Sad

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 19:25

Logic was never in great supply on this thread.

Common sense was also absent for quite a while.

We seemed to have moved from "I don't like poo in my wheelie bin" to "the poor bin men are covered in poo"

Exploding poo

Ivor,

Knock knock

YANBU.

I cannie be arsed to read through all the replies, but I guess you will some posters saying 'it is fine, it is a bin'. I don't agree with that at all. Is it okay to go and stick your rubbish in someone else's bin? NO. Especially not when it is shite.

We had a skip in our drive for a while and an old man used to walk past and through his dog shit bags in it! I saw him at it and DH ran out and told him to stop. It was minging.

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 19:44

Thinking of the environment wouldn't it better to hold the dog over the bin and simply let it shit in there?

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 19:49

You're thinking of the toilet, FanjoCat.

AvonCallingBarksdale · 02/11/2012 19:51

Accepts high-fiving from Everlong, hugs and wine from Tantrums and basks in being on the side of sanity and reason. I'm usually a right old stick in the mud (shit?) when it comes to changing my mind, but this really swung it and I'm finding it rather liberating!!

LittleBearPad · 02/11/2012 19:52

Not sure the OP wants the dog walker to knock on her door and ask that the dog use the OP's loo. She was worried enough about her wheely bin

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 19:53

Oh come on now, surely you dog-owners can train your pets to use a travel potty? Shock

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 19:55

This is why I'm glad i have a cat. He can just shit in all your gardens without me leaving the sofa.

D0oinMeCleanin · 02/11/2012 19:57

I have trained two of my dogs to only poo in my yard. I go out once or twice a day to bag it and bin it all. I am very ashamed now, that I did not consider the poor bin men.

From now on I shall leave it all in a pile.

My neighbours will just have to live with the smell and flies. Thank you Brycie for opening my eyes to the plight of the bin men. I will await my flogging at your soonest convinience [solemn face]

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 19:57

That's OK, Fanjo, I shall just grow loads of beautiful but deadly poisonous lilies, and then you will wonder why your cats keep dropping down dead after they've visited my garden.

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 19:59

Rings RSPCA!!!

LittleBearPad · 02/11/2012 20:00

But where would the contents of the travel potty go! We're back to where we started in the poo circle of hell

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 20:02

You can't report me to the RSPCA for growing lilies! Grin

squoosh · 02/11/2012 20:03

Cats that pee and poop in actual toilets. Is that an actual thing or something dreamt up by Animals Do The Funniest Things just to mess with my head?

D0oinMeCleanin · 02/11/2012 20:03

Poo mountains in the corner of parks and dog owner's gardens. That is the forward. Then no one has to be smeared in poo.

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 20:07

Take it home and empty it down your toilet, LittleBear. Easy! No bags of poo, no need for bins, no need to worry about anyone getting smeared in ungodly waste. Everyone's a winner!

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 20:10

What about the poor sewerage workers ? SadSad

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 20:14

They get paid to spend their days covered in shit. Presumably they enjoy it, otherwise they would not have applied for the job. Therefore the travel-potty-using dog owners will be doing them a favour!

D0oinMeCleanin · 02/11/2012 20:16

You can't put dog waste into the water system! Bleurgh.

I am not even sure that is legal, is it?

Poo mountains are the only way.

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 20:20

If it's illegal, how are they going to trace the dog poo back to a specific toilet anyway? Confused
