This is totally nasty, especially when it's so easy to just bring a plastic bag in their pants and throw it in the nearest trash can. I guess they would rather some little kid step in it instead and track it all over the place.
There's nothing better than walking on your local bike or walking path, and seeing a big old dog dump right in the middle of the path. Slobs.

As I was headed home, I happened to look in the rear view mirror at just the right moment, to see a green bag go flying down and splat onto the road. I'm ashamed to admit I didn't pull over and go searching for it. I'm just relieved there were no cars behind me either to witness or catch the bag in the windshield.

(14,881 posts)I stopped visiting Walden's Pond when they started busing city-folk out for a day in the "country." The mother's turned it into a smelly toxic waste septic tank pretending to be pioneer moms by rinsing their babies' diapers in the pond. Probably hundreds per day.

(1,415 posts)I thank local dog owners who scoop my yard. I call them good doggie moms/dads, and they appreciate someone appreciating it. I find positive reinforcement very helpful in such cases.
Fortunately, the one old lady who never scooped finally died or something. Now, my yard is poop-free!
