In the mornings I walk my daughter down to the corner bus stop. It's not far, but she's the only one there and it's close to a busier road. She hasn't told me that I embarrass her yet so I still go. Lately a boy has been riding the bus on occasion. This morning his mother, dressed in a nice business skirt and high heels comes walking down the street toward us at the bus stop. She's walking a small poodle dressed in a pink t-shirt. The boy sees her and crosses the street to go pet his dog. A couple of minutes later the bus rolls up and the kids leave. She has a head start on me and walks her dog toward home. THEN she strolls up into MY YARD and waits as her dog cops a squat in my grass. I'm thinking "OH NO SHE ISN'T!" I pick up my pace and enter my yard from an angle. She turns to see me and says,"Oh, is this your yard? I'm sorry. When she has to go she just has to go."
Can you believe that?! She just decided it was OK to walk up into someones yard and let it crap there. She didn't try to keep it down by the street. Oh no. She walked a good six feet up into my yard!
My next door neighbor was out on her front step and saw what happened. She was laughing like a crazy lady. She said she could see my face and saw my hair bouncing up and down as I sped up to catch this lady. She thought it was all very funny.
Can you believe the nerve of some people?

Oh my that REALLY gets under my skin. Over here under environmental health laws force dog owners to clean up after their dogs and I know Councils spend a fortune on providing dog waste bags and bins and impose 50 pound (71.55 USD) fixed penalty fines for letting your dog foul in public.
If she had done it on my property when I was there she'd have SERIOUSLY been taken to task over it and I would have found her a bag to clean it up with if she wasn't carrying her own bags like she should. Failing a bag she could have used her bare hands to clear it up with for what I care. It's called responsible dog ownership.
Her dog = her dog's waste = her problem.
You should scoop the poo and take it to her damn door step and dump it out and smash it around with a stick and then set it on fire. I hate people who let their dogs shit in other people's yards and don't clean it up. CARRY BAGGIES. It's not that hard, folks.
I'm glad we don't have dogs anymore....
I used to have a neighbor who'd let her dog do that right in front of me...then tell me it wasn't her dog that just made the mess!
Oh, just as we think we're on the cusp of civilization.
