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

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.

I've already said I carry my dogs shit home. I stick that in a messenger bag which also carried dog bics, balls spare lead, collar. hand sanitiser etc.

I really DGAF if someone stick crap in my bin, as it's where I put ours. I'd also think it a bit precious to insist that other people don't use my bin when it's out on the front.

Nowadays, I'm just pleased to see anyone pick litter up...

squoosh · 02/11/2012 15:51

Are guests allowed to shit in your toilets or do they need to bring it home with them?

Brycie · 02/11/2012 15:52

Oh dear squoosh. I thought I was talking to someone who had a clue. But someone will find your response amusing and clever, I hope.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 15:53

Brycie well obviously a lot of people think differently. So it is a matter of opinion.

I really couldn't care less if someone puts dog shit in my bin. Whatever. I probably wouldn't do the same, but only because my dog only poos in the back garden so I've never had to think about it.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 15:54

Brycie is so cutting.

squoosh you are clueless, you hear? CLUELESS.

D0oinMeCleanin · 02/11/2012 15:54

I put dog poo in a bag and the bag straight into the wheelie bin Brycie. As I have three dogs, sometimes more, I even sometimes have three or four poos in one bag Shock I put extra glitter on those bags, I wouldn't want my bin getting un-beautifed.

squoosh · 02/11/2012 15:54

Oh dear Brycie. Sorry to disappoint you.

For your information, from reading your posts, I'm quite certain you don't have a clue.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 15:54

I don't eat chicken from the skankychicken shop at the end of my round either but someone put their take away box with bones inside my wheelie bin 2 weeks ago.

Oh bloody hell I should have started a thread about it.

But seeing as I do not take rubbish out of bin once it's in there, other rubbish including bagged up dog poo doesn't cause me to have hysterics.

And I don't wash the bin either. I sprinkle that jeyes fluid powder in it once a fortnight.

5madthings · 02/11/2012 15:54

when i have stuff to go to the dump i dont put it in my rubbish bin at all, i bag it up ready for the dump and put it in the shed or back garden until dp is free to take it to the dump, it wouldnt occur to me to put it in my rubbish bin tbh.

recycling stuff goes in the recycling bin or box if its glass and if we have too much again i bag it up and keep it seperate to the rubbish.

bins collected once a fortnight here on alternate weeks, rubbish one week, recycling the next. we have the regular sized bins, as a family of seven we would be entitled to a bigger bin but we have no problems with the normal size bin.

and the bin men wouldnt get it on their clothes they dont touch the rubbish they take the bin, hook it to the back of the bin truck and press a button and it lifts up and tips it out, it even shakes it for stuff that may be stuck, then they put it back on the pavement for me to bring in. they wear gloves and protective overalls anyway. my dp worked as a binman for a while when we were at uni (it fitted in great with studying) and he didnt have an issue with stuff getting on his clothes etc.

I have been very amused by the way that some posters have twisted and turned to justify their bad manners. Grin

Prentending that the alternative to putting their dog's poo in other people's bins is leaving it on the floor is nothing short of ridiculous! I suppose they couldn't possibly carry the bag to their own bin or nearest dog waste bin!

Brycie · 02/11/2012 15:55

Hmm squoosh

schnauzerfan · 02/11/2012 15:55

Cripes! Bagged up poo in an outside bin. A bin for rubbish. What is the world coming to.

squoosh · 02/11/2012 15:55

I am CLUELESS . . . . . . to the ways of being professionally offended. Hope I remain that way. Smile

5madthings · 02/11/2012 15:56

tantrums i dont wash our bin either, dp occasionally (ie i can think of two occasions) cleans it out but generally we just have some of the fluid powder we put in it as well, or sometimes i bung some bicarb in if i think it smells.

Brycie · 02/11/2012 15:56

5madthings: people do things differently. They shouldn't have to refrain from puttin things in their bin in case someone is too lazy to walk with a bag and decides to throw it in theirs.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 15:57

Yes sqoosh

Clueless. Just clueless.

Unlike the hysterical people on this thread who clearly have plenty of clues.
Maybe in need of a hobby or something..but plenty of clues

squoosh · 02/11/2012 15:57

This thread is really making me wish I had a dog!

Brycie · 02/11/2012 15:57

I'm not sure I really think much of the way people try to belittle someone who's asking for general decent manners from the public.

BastardSpiders · 02/11/2012 15:57

"Are guests allowed to shit in your toilets or do they need to bring it home with them?"

More twisting and turning. This thread is getting hilarious.

Brycie · 02/11/2012 15:58

Funny how the screechers are accusing other people of being hysterical.

5madthings · 02/11/2012 15:58

well keep your bin in your garden?

as long as its bagged up properly i just dont see an issue, if you do maybe put a note on your bin to say so.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 15:58

Tantrums disgusting. What if you had needed to store some rubbish in the bin until you took it out for its special treat day and then got disgusting skanking chicken boneness on you?

It shocks me. It really does.

BastardSpiders a bin is a bin is a bin. Dog bin, my own bin, someone else's bin. It's a bin. I couldn't care less which one the poo goes into.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 15:58

Why oh why would anyone have to refrain from putting something in their bin because someone else had used it?

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 15:59

Brycie . It really is you who's coming off as hysterical.

Seriously.
