It was bagged and tucked into the top of my bin. The bin men would have refused to empty my bin for having something other than recyclable glass for a start, never mind having to remove it myself bleeeurgh.

Cheeky fucker, TAKE IT HOME AND PUT IT IN YOUR OWN FUCKING BIN!!!!!

Disgusting. I would never do that. The bin owner has no idea it is in there, could go rooting for something accidentally chucked out and end up putting their hand through bag. Vile. I always take mine home if no public dog bin nearby.

TooOldForGlitter · 05/06/2014 21:53

Oh, by 'mine' I meant my dogs, not, y'know, mine Blush

Kate smiley faces are an attempt to lighten the mood on an epically serious fred...

I genuinely don't see how it causes anyone problem, I can't honestly see how someone can be so fucking precious about a BIN... I feel sorry for you all tbh!

Yes it does make things easier for me, when the opportunity is available. Which is isn't too often as I don't walk my boy in urban/ housing areas if I can help it. If I wanted my. life to be that bloody easy, I'd leave his shit in the street, i wouldn't wouldn't pay money for little bags yo pick it up in would I? Hell, I wouldn't spend 2 hours a day walking him at all!

qwertybirdie · 05/06/2014 21:59

Unfortunately for your counter comment, I am a dog owner as I said above. I still think you are out of order.

RPopz · 05/06/2014 22:00

And not "toooold" ... I'm not 7 Wink

GreeboOgg · 05/06/2014 22:01

To be fair, a few weeks ago I almost did shove dog shit in somebodies bin (they were out awaiting collection, not recently emptied) as I was on the edge of the moors, and would have to carry it around for about 6 hours. The only reason I didn't was fear that they would see me and shout Blush Grin

There would have been no point anyway, as he dutifully did two more during the day that had to be carried about. You really have to love dogs to put up with a tangle of leads, rucksack, slobbery balls and bags of shit whilst unwrapping your sausage roll.

qwertybirdie · 05/06/2014 22:01

How do you know for certain the bins are mechanically emptied? You don't. Either the bin owner may have to move the bags to the kerbside, or the bin men may have to pull the bags out. That's why it's a big deal for a start, without other reasons.

How are council bins emptied then? If not by bin men/ women pulling a bag out....?

Fuckalella · 05/06/2014 22:06

I wouldn't dream of putting dog shit in someone else's bin, how rude! What if every dog walker did that? I have enough trouble some fortnights fitting all our household waste in, let alone having to contend with it being half full of shit from other peoples dogs!

Whereas you are practically perfect in every way I suppose Kate? This is a the most hilariously uptight thread I've ever had the misfortune to post on....

Enjoy your evenings sterilising your wheelie bins ladies... I'm off to cuddle my lovely spaniel dog. Might treat us to a walk and some turd spreading later.

(I entered this thread deadly seriously btw, afraid I cannot leave it so!)

TooOldForGlitter · 05/06/2014 22:08

Um I think the 'tooold' was for me Rpopz

Feel free to revolt upon my slatternly ways while I'm gone Grin

trixymalixy · 05/06/2014 22:10

If you're not 7 then how about you act like a grown up and take responsibility for your dog's shit rather than putting it in other people's bins. You might not see a problem with it, but clearly lots of other people do, other dog owners included.

TooOldForGlitter · 05/06/2014 22:12

The 'normal' bins round here have stickers on saying 'dog waste accepted' otherwise I wouldn't use them. It isn't up to other people, be they council bin emptiers/wheelie bin owners, to have to deal with the poop of a pet I chose to own. That's my job. Honestly, no wonder so many of us get a bad rep.

hippoinamudhole · 05/06/2014 22:12

I would be happy for someone to use my bin.

Staywithme · 05/06/2014 22:12

Sorry but you just reminded me of the time I thought I'd dropped a very important key in my bin and had to remove every bit of rubbish by hand, including the thirty or so bags of dog shit. I dog walk and sometimes have to carry it home. It was the must revolting thing I've ever had to do. Found the fecking key on the car floor.

Sorry, but I think it's down right disrespectful to put dog shit in some one else's bin.

neversleepagain · 05/06/2014 22:16

RPopz you would be welcome to put your dog shit in my wheelie bin you would be knocked out by the smell of shitty nappies from my twins and it would serve you right I would be really pissed off if you added to the stink of our wheelie bin. Take your dog shit home and bin it FFS.

People go on and on about scrapping your child's shit out of nappies into the toilet but no one thinks twice of dog shit filling land fills.

comingintomyown · 05/06/2014 22:35

Well RPopz take a bow you are quite something

SirChenjin · 05/06/2014 22:38

YANBU OP

On the other hand, RPopz is. Take your dog shit home with you, you lazy mare.
