You don't like picking it up cause it's gross, I imagine? Nobody likes smelling or stepping in a problem you made theirs. Take responsibility for your shit.

I guess closing the gap between your face and dog shit while picking it up everyday wouldn't expose you more to the bacteria emanating from it. It's only direct contact according to you.

So I could live in a world in which my face is 3 feet away from my own dog's shit for about 3 seconds or Shittsburgh where every selfish asshole leaves their dogs to shit wherever they want without a care in the world, like some dystopian nightmare?

I wonder which is preferable.

I'm more surprised at how much ya'll give a shit. I have never once seen a mfer carrying a bag to pick up dog poop in my city. Different facets of life I guess.

We're concerned because irresponsible dog owners result in our dogs being banned from many public places.
 
Pick up your dog's shit, dude. It's your responsibility as a pet owner. Was mowing my lawn this weekend and spent half that time dodging a minefield of dog shit because assholes walk their dogs through the neighborhood and won't clean up after them.

It's not in Pittsburgh, I'd pick my dog shit up downtown. That setting is different. And there's not shit everywhere, I dunno what happens to it though.

So my wife is upset that when I walk our dog and he takes dump, I don't pick it up, I am I crazy? It's biodegradable so where is the problem here?


(Edit: to be clear I don't let him do it on people's lawns or property only on side walks, bushes, bark, etc..)

Yeah you are a fucking problem and you should not own a dog.
 
It's not about the smell. Dog feces can transmit toxicariasis to small children, which can make them go blind. This isn't hyperbole, Google it. Pick up that poop.
 
I'm a dog owner and people like the op irritate the shit out of me. No pun intended.

Like what the fuck. Someone should report your ass and hope you pay a hefty fine. People that let their dogs shit everywhere and don't clean it up and then when you call them out they act like it's normal are some of the worst people in this world.

Jesus, really? Most animal conservation parks have 'leave no/minimal trace' rules for a reason. I guess if you went hiking you'd just leave your own shit lying around too. There's a difference between the defecation habits of wild animals and hordes of people and dogs coming through the same areas and defecating.

I don't hike..

If you had an outside cat would you pick scower the neighborhood looking for your cat's shit when it goes outside? Because cat shit does the same thing.

This is the part where detectiveGAF finds your house and mails a weeks worth of shit (PER GAF MEMBER) to a nearby GAFer who will spread it all over your lawn and along the path from your front door to the sidewalk.

And you won't even be mad, cause it's all biodegradable!
 
you can be fined for nor picking up your dog's shit. So you're doing something illegal. There are laws for a reason. You can't be this dense.

Yeah so is not keeping your grass a certain height, in some areas. You can get fined or evicted. A lot of people are definitely overreacting.

Why are you trying to act cute about this.

Pick up after your damn dog. Do you know how filthy most sidewalks and parks would be if most owners didn't pick up their dog's shit? Do you just leaving trash on the floor in your house too?

This contrarian bullshit is embarrassing honestly.

Ok so we have finally gotten you to admit that shit is bad. This feels like a breakthrough.

So if having shit laying around is bad, which is worse: Having more shit or Having less shit?
 
I never picked it up. It's a yard. People don't go outside now a days anyway. Typically got him to hold it til we got to the stop sign where it's public property
 
If you were in UK you could get an on the spot fine

4. Dog fouling
You can be given an on-the-spot fine if you don’t clean up after your dog. The amount varies from council to council. It’s often £50 and can be as much as £80.

If you refuse to pay the fine, you can be taken to court and fined up to £1,000

Pick up after your dog or pay the concequences
 
My dog likes to poop in privacy. So he'll go under hedges and bushes if I take him for a walk and he happens to go, which in most cases makes it impossible to get to since he really goes in deep. But if on the rare occasion he does poop out in the open where I can get to it I'll pick up it up no question. I carry some baggies for such an event, but it's happened maybe once or twice in the last 6 months. He really does not like pooping on open ground. Even at my house he pretty much will only poop in the pachysandra or under bushes we have on the property.

Plus I always take him around my property before a walk to get him to do his business then and not when we are on the walk itself on someone else's property, but on a couple occasions I guess the exercise helped to loosen things up , despite him pooping right before, and he went under a bush and took a squat and squeezed out a tiny turd or two.

No one wants shit just lying around, not to mention all the other hazards it can bring. It's just part of owning a dog. But you can easily minimize that unpleasant aspect if you just take some time. Train your dog to poop in an acceptable location, have them go before any long walk. It's really not hard and what little inconvenience it might be at first will make life a lot easier later on.

So you're okay with the path being paved in shit?
 
I love how OP casually mentions he doesn't let his dog shit "on property, only on side walks" as if that's better

Hahaha chill bruh, I'm the one refusing to persecute someone for not pickin up shit. You all are doing the opposite.

Cats rarely defecate in the open spaces where children are likely to be. Plus, the issue is about minimising the chances of exposure. If you own any pet that shits in front of you in a public place, know that if you don't pick it up, some kid might. The laws exist for a good reason.

There're obviously spots where I would pick shit up.
 
Motherfucker you let your dog shit on the sidewalk and don't pick it up? The sidewalk's purpose is for people to WALK on it and you think it's ok to leave smelly shit there?

My neighbor's puppy died of parvo from some dog shit that someone left in the park.

My puppy didn't die but got it too. I asked the vet how she got it because she's not around dogs and he told me likely from dog poop in the park and there is always a lot of it.

She threw up for 4 days straight. They had to fill her back up with a patch of fluids. He gave her a 20% chance to live. She did and has been healthy ever since but that week was hell.
