It is bizarre and horrible. I also heard on our news that they were thinking of bringing in that sort of law here, not sure when or wether it will happen.
I was going to start doing this then realised there was so much, I'd never be able to carry it. I might go over the field without my dog but take a black sack, photograph it and send it to the local paper. There was a big hoohar the other week, dog owners had complained about discarded food, dead fish etc left after a fishing competition up the beach. Although this can be annoying, no-one mentioned the amount of dog poo left up there by dog owners. I might just take a black sack up there too. There are many bin provided at the beach so you don't even have to carry it very far. It does make me so angry
The only problem there is that dogs might end up banned from the field and complaints could lead to dogs being banned from the beach
Yes, that's what has held me back, also I'm not sure I'd like a black sack of other people's dogs poo in my bin for 2 weeks either now I come to think about it
A friend of mine posted this on FB the other day. Just to balance the conversation with the perils of picking up after your dog ...
Ha ha.....that actually made me SNORT with laughter. Question is will I answer OH who said "wot u laffin at?"
I think I'd definitely support it - the only thing is, this morning Charlie decided that the only place that was suitable to have his poo was deep under a thick holly bush. There was no way I could get in to pick up after him! I suppose neither would the dog poo DNA testing officer....
We went to the beach yesterday and just as we got there a dog decided that the edge of the water was the best place to do his poo. His owner ran over in the hope she could get him to move before he did the deed but it was too late. Unfortunately for her she was a responsible owner and spent the next ten minutes ankle deep in the water, bag in hand chasing floaties
At least it wasn't diarrhoea!! Penny had diarrhoea at the beach once, like full on waterfall from the bum, liquid diarrhoea! I didn't know what to do! Came off the beach with about six poo bags of sand!
