I had a busy day with a lot of running around to do… and I had the pleasure of starting it off by stepping in an enormous pile of dog shit. Before the trolls tell me to watch where I’m going, you should know that this particular pile of poop wasn’t on the sidewalk, it was hiding in the grass right next to the sidewalk, where I had to step to take down a work-related sign. —Can’t Shake the Shit Stench

  1. When the spring melt happened, the grass strip in front of my building started to reveal the worst pile of unbagged poo ever. If someone owns a dog, they should pick up the shit! I especially hate rlling through it with the wheelchair. I can’t get the smell of shit off my hands for days! And it gets stuck in the treads. If only I could step out of the chair to remove and clean the wheels… I usually find some clean grass and push through it.
    Meh.
    Dog poop bitch valid.

  2. Yeah folks – pick up your dog’s shit.

    I don’t run around crapping on other people’s property. Why should it be different with dogs?

    Even supposing I were to crap on someone’s front lawn, I’d at least have the common decency to bag it and dispose of it properly.

  3. i live in this so called trendy north end neighborhood and i am embarrassed when i walk around and see piles of shit everywhere! would it be acceptable if i pinched a loaf on your front lawn and left it? i didn’t think so! if you’re not going to pick up after your dog, at least let it shit on your own front lawn, frig.

    wouldn’t it be a good idea to have random disposable doggie bags ‘centres’ through out the city? like maybe wherever there is a garbage can. don’t have a bag to pick it up?? oh look! there’s one! and a garbage bin to put it in! makes sense to me, non?

  4. these non-pooper scoopers must take their beasties out late at night. i rarely see people not picking up the loaves

  5. o.p., if they don’t clean up after their mutt, then they sholdn’t have one. i have stepped in shit too, and let me say, that i was not a happy fucking camper. i was on my way to see a very good client one day, and walked across the grass to their place, and lo and fucking behold, this great big pile of shit, i slipped and fell on it, and landed in still yet another pile, fuck, i would have killed the bastards that left that there, if i knew who it was. and this is about 50 feet from the curb, and 40 or so from their doorways. and my clothes were ruined, and stunk like fuck. had to cancel, and leave, lost contract too.
    i love dogs, most anyway, but humans i could just fucking kill them. if they don’t have the time, patience, or the skill, to look after their animal, then don’t fucking get them.

  6. Man, I wish I could clean up after my (ex) dogs… I miss them… and their poop…

  7. Maybe it was homeless people poop….because seriously, where the fuck do they shit? In their pants? Or in their cups for spare change?
