Dog poo!

Bin day and at least 3 people have dropped their dog sh*t bags in my empty black bin - who are these idiots! The bin men lift the black bags out so I end up having to upend the bin to empty it on a regular basis. If this is you don’t do it please! Surely I’m not being unreasonable ..

I never get the rage at this, you’re going to fill
the bin with rubbish, doesn’t bother me, rather it’s in the bin then on the street

Because I have to empty it out or I’d end up
with a bin full of poo - basically some moron can’t be bothered putting their sh*t in a public bin and leave me to get rid of it.

How so? Because people don’t have to put all their rubbish in black bags. I don’t.

I’m speaking completely from my own perspective here. I’ve no intention of complaining about them

Dog poo is fucking grim. People who don’t pick it up are even more grim. People putting it in other people’s bin are fucking grim.
Just all urgh 🤢

ticketwoes · 05/03/2026 15:49

Jesus Christ!
OP, it may well ‘just be poo’, but it’s not your (or your dogs!) poo, so obviously it shouldn’t be going in your bin, regardless of how it’s emptied.
people arguing against this fact really are not helping the name of dog owners.

non dog owners calling for the banning of dogs are also not helping the thread. And they come off looking very strange. You can’t just ban the things that you don’t like.

you can, however, expect to put your own bin out and have it not to be used by other people.

DitzyDerbyBabe86 · 05/03/2026 15:51

and people who let their dogs poo in and around where children play (even if it’s picked up) FUCKING MORONS OF THE HIGHEST TIER OF SCRUFFY BASTARDS!

No, probably not banned but maybe put on treadmills to generate electricity?

Id never put my poo bags in someone else’s bin but you’re not really having to get rid of it. The dustmen get rid of it. There’s not usually a requirement to put the rubbish in a bin bag, most people just put rubbish in loose. Personally if I was getting that many shit bags in my bin I might start wondering if I need to store it somewhere else. How soon do you bring your bin in after it’s emptied? If it’s left out for hours that may be a bit tricky. With a bit of ingenuity you could probably lock it.

I work so I take it when I can
I am not going to complain about the bin men because of other peoples shitty behaviour

Their owners definitely should!

Noshowlomo · 05/03/2026 17:27

Its rank, and people who do this are filthy fuckers. Luckily, we can’t put out black bins now, just bags, so it doesn’t happens but someone down the street caught someone trying to put a bag of dog shit in their emptied food waste bin. From the telling off they had, they won’t do it again 😬

Dog owners are fucking anti-social. Was reading the other day about the Welsh rugby player hospitalised due to dogs crapping all over the sports pitches. Should be laws that they shit on owners property only.

They shouldn't be allowed in public places, only the owner's gardens or a special dog park. If someone doesn't have a garden they shouldn't have a dog.

dizzydizzydizzy · 05/03/2026 17:44

I had to put a sign on out lawn to tell the local dog owners to stop leaving bags of poo on our drive and lawn. They stopped doing it for week or two.

So what about my service dog? Guide dogs? Hearing dogs for the deaf?

Obviously they would be the exception.

Which effectively bans dogs; they only exist because dog owners buy them as a plaything. All of the dog breeds people “own” are fake - nothing to do with nature.

Also, piss.

The dog people drag their animal through town allowing it to spray piss on public infrastructure.

Grind them up.

Oh gosh, what a surprise.

whoever could have seen the direction this thread would take.

Don’t be silly. If there were no pet dogs, there would be no pet dog poo. It would be a simple solution to a disgusting problem.

At least cats have the decency to find a little patch of soil. Dogs just leave it wherever they happen to be. One crapped in the school playground recently; owner wasn’t supposed to take it in

And your shit ends up in the seas and rivers. We all do it.

YeOldeGreyhound · 05/03/2026 18:30

I have my bingo card out ready. I see we have already had "all dog owners are anti-social" and "ban all dogs".

I also see the usual frothing dog haters hiding behind name changes, but their opinions are so OTT, they are obvious.

ChamonixMountainBum · 05/03/2026 12:48

I hate this too. So antisocial and inconsiderate.

I also hate the people who hang bags of shit from shrubs and trees down the local park as if some magic dogshit fairy is going to remove it for them.

Dog shit fairy 😂
