Dog poo in my bin?

[smoreOre]

My driveway is small, I can fit one car one and that’s it and the bins are at the side. I live on a tree lined street and have numerous leaves piled up mush over the pavement.

I constantly spot owners allowing their dogs to sit on the leaves on my driveway next to the bins. I don’t know if all dogs shit in the same place but it fucks me right off - I once banged on the window and the woman just shrugged at me.

Numerous times I’ve had dog poo bagged up thrown in my big which i think is absolutely disgusting tbh. I’m going to buy a lock for the bin.

Aibu as a dog owner do you put their shit in other peoples bins?

lol get over yourself!

I generally do but if I’m on a long walk, happen to be right near someone’s bin I might chuck it in. I don’t make a general habit of it, but really don’t see it’s a big deal. It’s an outside bin. It’s for rubbish. The poo is in a bag, my dog is tiny so it’s more like a rabbits poo!

Your dog lives on grass like a rabbit does it?

This!!
And I'm a dog owner! I'd never dream of putting it in someone else's bin!!

The local authority that charges for the use of the bin and you pay it in your council tax. They also make you pay for a new bin if it goes missing even though you are only renting it.

Paying for the use of it makes me go and shift mine promptly when it is emptied otherwise it ends up with leaky bags of stinking shit stuck to the bottom.

If you get the use of your bin for no charge you are very lucky, I suspect you pay like most people who pay council tax.

I would prefer it in my bin than treading on it and bringing it indoors.

Some of you think it sounds ok to do, but just imagine several bags of dog poop, every day in your bin for two weeks at a time, in Summertime! It would be very stinky especially if they split and leak and it's not acceptable. Nobody should have to put up with that.

Our council refused to collect our bin because we put our own (triple bagged) dog’s poo in it, so I’d be furious if someone else put poo into it.

We have to travel to take ours to the tip.

I try not to let my dog poo next to someone’s driveway but sometimes I can’t stop it! I’d never put a bag in a private bin though…I always carry it to a public bin or back to my own one if no public ones on my walk.

Yes sometimes 😆

I admit I have put a bagged dog poo in a stranger’s wheelie bin and posted on here as the bin owner threatened to call the police. The majority of people didn’t agree with my actions. In the future if there wasn’t a council bin nearby and a wheelie bin was there I would knock on their door first and ask if they objected. If they told me that they didn’t want it in their bin then I would carry it until I did find a public bin.

Most dog owners on MN seem to think of it as "popping the poop in a nearby bin" as opposed to depositing a sack of shit in someone's personal bin. I wouldn't want their animal's excrement in my bin, they can jog on, sack o' shit in hand.

I had to buy my bin so no, I don’t want other people’s shit in it (literally).
Just after I had had my bin emptied someone threw a bag full of maggots in I had to wait 2 weeks for it to be emptied. I couldn’t put the flaming things anywhere else.
Disgusting.
Use your own bin for goodness sakes.

As a dog owner I wouldn't dream of putting it in someone's bin, either take it home or put it in a public bin.

Get over yourself love. I'm not the one putting dog shit in other people's bins because I'm not an entitled twat.

I love how people get so riled up over trivial things! Clearly not a lot else going on!

as a parent with no dog:

I would absolutely rather clean up dog poo than deal with a child who is vomiting.

It's the same as changing a nappy- you're hand shouldn't be covered in poo, just wash when you can

I honestly wouldn't pick up dog poo with my hand in a bag for less than a grand and even then I'd think twice.

If shit is so trivial to you then put it in your own pocket

If you don't have a dog, no problem for you then.

Unless a selfish dick puts their dog shit in my bin and then I have to clean it out

Why can’t you take it home?

Why can’t I ask? If the bin owner doesn’t mind why should you?
Why can’t I use a council/public bin? Why do you take issue with a waste bin being used for its intended purpose?

Because some people don’t appreciate you knocking on their door.

They have the option to
a. Not answer
b. Say no
c. Tell me to go away and never darken their door again
d. Shout gerroff my laand
e. Reconsider after meeting me and succumbing to my charming demeanour and the reality that it’s going into a bin
