I'm seething.
I had a lovely crispy icy walk with steppedog. We walk through a nature reserve. It is in the town, so surrounded by houses, and full of loads of dog walkers. At one end is a big football pitch.
So, several square km of rough grass, woods, mud, people in boots etc.
One field which is mown, marked out for football, and used by loads of kids clubs at the weekend.
The sides of the football field are even rough edges and long grass.
One stupid woman with her dog, walks straight across the football pitch and allowed her dog to poo right by the goal, then it did 2 more poohs right next to the pitch.
She didn't pick any of them up and once he had poohed, she put his lead on and walked back to the houses.
She was too far away to confront, but I walked up to where she had been, just in case I had it wrong. No, there was a huge pile of shit, right by the goalpost.
I ranted in my head all the way home. If you refuse to pick up your pooh then walk your dog in the long grass at the field's edge, or go out onto the rough fields and woods. Not on the one bloody mown football pitch in the whole area, and not on the pitch itself.
If I see her again, I won't be so reserved.
