  • people who don't pickup after their dogs, they shouldnt own them in the first place.

    those people suck and should get some on their feet or some nasty rash or something :p.

    I rarely step in them. last time i did, i didnt even notice till i got home and notice the horrible smell and than found it :(.

    I dont think Ive stepped in any since we moved here - so I had a pretty good run considering how much crap is on the sidewalks.
  • One person you can "thank" is the big fat bearded guy in the fedora that walks his Rotti mix from Park Pl to Grand Army Plaza. I've asked him point-blank to pick up after his dog to which he replied "I don't pick up shit..."

    you are lucky indeed :p or more aware of your surroundings hehe than i am :/.
  • On my block there was a terrible repeat offender for a couple of months. Finally, the block association took the public humiliation tactic--they circled the dog crap in chalk and wrote huge messages on the sidewalk next to it chastising the owner. In addition to the angry chalk messages they also posted signs on the trees saying something like "Owning a dog is a privilege--please respect your neighbors and clean up after your dog" or something like that.

    It seems to have worked, because I haven't seen dog doo for several months now.

    sounds like a grand idea. but doesnt it take time :p to stake out the place lol.
  • I am so sick and tired of trying to hop over everyone’s dog shit; it’s hazardous enough when there is no snow outside… but today… on my way to work and when no one shoveled yet I am forced to stepping over mountains and mountains of dog shit!! I almost fell face first into a shit- load of dog poo. I mean come-on, the snow is white, and you can’t act like you didn’t see the neon green pea and the dog shit on top of the new snow.

    I can’t comprehend how, if you have a dog… you feed it… you take it for a walk… and it shits, why you can’t pick up after it. Looking at dog shit, and the thought of picking it up, makes me sick and that’s why even though I think dogs are cute… I KNOW I CAN’T HAVE ONE.

    Be courteous to your neighbor, no one wants to go to work with a face full of dog shit.
  • i hate dogs and even more, dog owners that don't know how to pick up their feces.

    i have this recurring fantasy of throwing feces at the dog owner's face if he doesn't pick it up.

    there's a reason why chinese people eat dog! i hope someone takes your dog and cooks it in a wok the next time you don't pick it up. arseholes.
  • I loves the dogs, and hates the people that won't pick up the poo.
    I hate them more than before I had a dog, cause now I'm picking up poop. I hate the poop. So if I gotta pick up poop to have dog love at home, everybody else should. I'm communist like that...

    It always get worse in a cold snap.
  • I am with you. I hate it when someone just walks away. So you are going to love this!

    There was a guy that didn't live on our street that would take his dog down my street and let him dumper-doo just in and around my house. After a while I finally lost it and snapped. I went out screaming at him and the guy was scared. I am 6 foot 4 and I guess that helps. Anyway he said he didn't have a bag to clean it up and I said his hand was fine with me for all the times he has done this. Well he went MacGyver on it and took off his own sock and used that. So this guy (who never comes down here anymore) walked away with a sock full off crap all the way home.

    Thought you may enjoy a story like that.
  • as a dog owner who picks up his beast's poop faithfully -- i have a question.

    how do you people feel about diarrhearrhearrhea poop?

    i ask because on the odd occasion when my dawg is having 'stomach issues' her runny poop cannot be picked up. i mean i pick up what i can but diarrhearrhearrhea poop is quick like mercury. virtually impossible to pick up

    i make the effort in hopes that anyone looking will see i've given it a try
    but i always walk away feeling guilty that my little girl, with her explosive anus has just painted the sidewalk all shades of brown

    so this is really a plea for understanding. don't hate me or my dog for having the diarrhea

    i mean, put yourself in my dog's place. what if you had the explosive diarrhearrhearrhea'ing anus?

    you need to feed your dog better, dude

    or see the vet

    or carry hazmat cleanup powder

    actually, the snow makes things easy for you -- carry a big bag and cleanup a BIG bag of snow
  • I usually understand when I see that it is almost impossible to pick up. But I saw a neighbor with a lot of paper towels when her dor had "issues of the anus" and that seemed to do the trick. Plus don't let your dog eat your White Castle!
  • When the dog I sit for has that problem, I pick up what I can, then I get a bucket of water from home, go back and dump it towards the curb.

    curb that dog! keep her as close to the edge of the sidewalk as possible or OFF the sidewalk IF you have that option - i understand this is nyc. i think good doggie diarrhea manners include the attempt to pick up (smear?) & the ever gracious napkin left unfolded on top. i KNOW the napkin is litter, at least no one will slip, this is an attempt at safety people. eewww.

    you are the best, for real. this is amazing.. if only everyone were that good, nyc might even smell good! :shock:

    That's kind of you to say. Thank you.
    This pooch (he's no longer amoung us) was a real garbage hound. We did the best we could to keep him from eating everything in sight, but once in a while we failed. And we were the ones who had to pay the consequences, i.e. cleaning up diarriah & vomited used tampons.

    That's not fair people. I think everybody misread this rant and judged me to be the offender.

    The dog poo I left behind was the size of a MILK DUD. Read the article. I had already picked up 99.9% of the mess FFS!

    I got screamed on for A MILK DUD! I didn't see it in the SNOW. If the belligerent watchdog in the window had not been so nasty and threatening to me, the MILK DUD would have been picked up too. With huge piles lying around nearby I should have been THANKED for making the effort, not BIATCHED OFF by that horrible woman. Or maybe she thought my dog had laid ALL of those other piles?

    Meanwhile, there are daily repeat offenders who leave shovelfuls behind, because they are macho men who would feel degraded if they had to "pick up shit". (that's women's work!!! after all, their mommas had to clean their shitty behinds not so long ago) I bet Mrs Police Sweater doesn't yell at those big tough rott owning neighbourhood thugs even if she catches them in the act!!

    No, I don't like stepping in it, that's why I clean it up.

    I have fed my dog White Castle and he has had no problems. He did get into a jar of peanut butter and crapped dust for 2 days.

    On the runny days I'll leave some newspaper on top.

    yeah. i gotta repeat that this is amazing!! but ain't-no-way-no-how i'm going to be carrying a bucket of water down 4 flights of stairs, round the block and back again.

    i think i'll be using the newspaper on top of the pooh method from now on...

    that's exactly the point! any attempts at picking up said diarrhea just results in schmearing it all over the sidewalk like peanut butter on a bagel -- makes the whole sordid episode that much worse

    my dog doesn't snack on white castle -- she prefers Los Pollitos II
  • i try to do the bucket of water thing
    usually if my dog is sick, she ends up going as soon as we get out the door so its a more viable option for me (and i only have one flight to go down)
    if its further away i do the newspaper thing.
    the smearing is very gross to do and to see.
  • Subject: doogie poo-Curb it

    Please just curb your dog!
    That is just what it means- Take them to the curb- and let them do their business there. It will make the explosive poo easier to deal with.
    I am sorry, but do not just leave it covered with newspaper or napkins on the street. Clean it up- don't just cover it! You can slip on wet paper too. Or you could try getting the newspaper under the poo before it hits the ground- I know that might be crazy -I do not have a dog, but I use to attempt it with my ex's dog.
    I also once climbed a 5 foot snow bank just to get the dog's poo cause that is where he wanted to do his business.
    And please do it when they pee too!
    thanks,
    :?
  • I hereby nominate this thread for GROSSEST EVER.

    sometimes you can only smear, sorry. :wink:
  • Well, use this tactic at your own risk, but if you can catch one of these folks on a schedule (and you usually can), discretely take a couple of pix (thanks Motorola) and post them up and down the street with the appropriate narrative. Some anonymous genius did that to a guy on my street, and it seemed to scare him off...at least I haven't seen him in a long time...
