Dogs make great pets. They’re good company. They get people out walking and meeting each other.
And for some owners, lets call them the poo-bag artistes, they provide a creative outlet. Those owners carry plastic bags with them to scoop up the little fellers’ droppings but—unlike normal people who simply take that bag home and dispose of it—the poo-bag artistes get creative.
First of all they tie a cute little knot in the top of the bag. Then, the important part, they carefully choose where to display their pooch’s droppings. Will it be hung from a tree branch? Dangled off a fence? Artfully placed just so by the side of the road? Thrown into a neighbour’s yard so the delighted children will find it the next morning? The possibilities for creative idiocy are endless.
And, as the snow has receded, their winter’s work is being revealed—one artfully placed poo bag at a time. To this I say, “Bravo poo-baggers! Brilliant! Just f-ing brilliant!” —Poo-bag art appreciation society of Halifax

With the Film Tax Credit gone, expect to see NSCAD’s Faculty of Stool and Fecal Art Installation program treble in size.
I concur you might have read my early post regarding this poo baggery nonsense.

SENDING THEM A MESSAGE
I believe you have missed a major venue for the artistic display of doggy poo-bags. It has come to my attention that there are those who take things a step further. There are some who, taking umbrage at derelict cars parked for extended periods in their area, lightly sprinkle the hoods with the contents of their poo-bags when passing by on their morning walk. When the owners return to pick up their jalopies they then view with dismay the artistic display of doggy poo-bags. It can be in the form of a circle, a square or even a short written reminder. It’s called “sending them a message.”
A pleasure as always,
Cheerio!
