Feckin dog owners?
Our village, which is is far from a sink estate, is like dog shit alley. Turds are here, there and everywhere. Most green spaces have a few choice samples and whilst this isnt a problem during the winter months when the kids dont want to go play football or spend time outside on these patches, which we all try to encourage, but when it comes to the summer, it worries me. Many times in the dark have I walked into my house realising that Ive stepped in one outside the front door. Its not nice.
What these dogs owners dont seem to get is that dog eggs are not only smelly packages of partially digested meat but that they harbour rather more sinister microbes which can cause blindness.
I was out this morning with mine and saw this young lad not only allow his pooch to park an otter on someones lawn but he proceeded to ignore it. i shouted at him that he should pick it up which he then did with turd bags from his pocket! Lazy, undeserving scummers.
