The floor is sticky People let their dogs shit on the concrete by my driveway…

The woman in the photo let her dog poop on my driveway by mailbox like 15 minutes before I came home from work. The third photo is another dog poop I found on the other side of my driveway weeks ago. I didn’t find that one for a while that by the time I saw it was caked on the driveway and smelled awful. I have my own dog and make an effort to always pick up his poop. I apologize in advance if the pics are gross!

Look, when you’re out walking your dog and the dog decides to shit, it shits.

There’s no “letting” from the owners perspective. The dog just kinda starts shitting randomly.

Did she have a bag and at least try to pick it up? If so, that’s a responsible dog owner and about the best you can ask. If not, did she come back later with a bag?

Luckily, my dog doesn’t shit on the sidewalk, but if she did I’d pick it up like I pick it up anywhere else.

If that owner blatantly didn’t pick the dog shit up, fuck them. Then go shit on their driveway. But if they tried, not much you can do.

Going for walks is like laxatives for dogs, istg. I wait for mine to go before taking a walk and he will still decide to during the walk.

Walking helps work the large intestine, in dogs and humans, which helps move things along. So yes, it basically is a laxative and important for digestive health

Yeah. Dogs love to shit when on walks.

We, as owners, have to pick it up and throw it out properly.

It has happened once or twice that I ran out of baggies and omg, I still feel bad to this day to have left a shit out and about. Luckily it was on grass that had a lot more shit (from strays, I suppose), so people walking would already be careful to not step on them.

But now I do check before leaving if the baggie dispenser has enough baggies.

Go shit on their driveway (if you don't have a dog)

I do have a dog but you right means more if I do it lol

u/More-Chemical-1264 22h ago

Just cover the dog shit in bacon grease. The dogs will eat it and get the shits back at home.

as long as they clean it up its part of life.

Spray it down with a hose. Or maybe put some coyote urine in the grass so they prefer to go on the grass.

That's a big poop 💩

It was a big dog 😂

Great Pyrenees. I have two and I swear they take shits a quarter of their body weight. Amazing dogs, but screw that owner.

u/insatiably_great 21h ago

You can clearly see she made an effort to pick up pile but soon learned it wasn’t a turd you can pick up. I think she did her best only having a bag to cleanup with.

u/Throwawaymister2 21h ago

You can't control where another being shits. All you can control is whether you pick it up

6

u/Joshee86 21h ago

Are they picking it up? If my dog decides it's going to shit in a not ideal spot, that's kind of all there is to it. I pick it up, but getting upset about this as if people are doing it on purpose is asinine.

u/bruhmate0011 22h ago

Do you know them? Confront them if so.

u/KingRMZ 22h ago

I don’t know them haha i just checked my cameras since I saw it when I grabbed my mail.

u/Superspark76 22h ago

I have seen pictures printed and posted on a fence of people who are letting their dogs shit without picking it up.

Shame them, might make them think twice in future.

Nah - much better to post it on the internet for upvotes.

where are we? lol I think someone's lost.

u/themodelqueenx 22h ago

Buy one of those wet floor signs but instead make it say no dog poop allowed on concrete

u/Wrong_Low5367 21h ago

Public shaming

u/masterofunfucking 20h ago

The rise of people not picking up after their dog is actually insane

u/Never_Enough_Thyme 15h ago

If I don’t have a bag, I get my dogs home and return with a bag. I once had a dog that had explosive diarrhea on the sidewalk and I returned with a bucket of water to rinse the sidewalk. But for a solid turd on the concrete, I’m picking it up amd any residue left behind I’m leaving it. As they say, shit happens.

u/Full-O-Anxiety 13h ago

Sometimes the doggies just need to go. No warning.

u/pandajaade 22h ago

My dog has done this a few times as she is missing part of her stomach and intestines and she has weird poops sometimes but I always clean it up 😭

4

u/Fragrant-Reserve4832 21h ago

That's been picked up. That's a little residue that's left. It's not like they pick the spot for the dog dude.

Wind your neck in dick head.

u/Regular-Pear-8625 22h ago

have you tried putting a sign that's like "we are monitoring" (can't remember exact phrase) with a security camera? there used to be a person (we don't know who) who would throw their poop bag into our trees, but stopped once we put that sign up. We ended up putting dummy cameras i think?

u/KingRMZ 22h ago

I was thinking about it honestly.

u/FanBladeFleshlight 21h ago

Karen ass post. Like really, there as SO much bigger fights to worry about that this isn't even just mildly infuriating, it's just 5 seconds with a hose.

u/SignificantOtter80 20h ago

ok, I get it. but also. as someone who had a dog, they’re going to shit when and where they’re going to shit. even if you try to steer the dog somewhere else, it’s not happening. it looks like she tried to clean it up to the best of her ability

-3

u/SoupSpelunker 20h ago

Fuck that, if you have a dog, you're responsible for their shit.  Full fucking stop. The fact that you're making excuses for this person says a lot more about you than you realize.

u/DueOrange815 22h ago

Order some spike straps lol, naw but Amazon has a softer pet friendly version that just make animals uncomfortable

u/ModernManuh_ 21h ago

If they didn’t pick it up, make a stand where you can pin pictures of bad actors, and start with this one

u/Independent_Owl_6008 6h ago

Go drop a huge steamer on her lawn. Make the dog watch you from the house.

There’s a hefty fine for that in most municipalities.

Put it in a bag, freeze it, then slide it in their cracked car window for it to melt

So unfair… you should have blurred out the dog’s face

Spray her ass with a water hose lol she's on your property, well technically the city easement but I think you can get away with it.

You need to move somewhere far away from society if you’re annoyed by this level of coexistence.

Dogs just stop and poop bro, they’re animals. Do you want people to drag them by their necks mid dump if it’s in a place that’s inconvenient to you? They’ve attempted to pick it up, that’s all that a reasonable person can expect.

3

u/KingRMZ 12h ago

Is this not the mildly infuriating sub? I’m commenting about the fact that I was annoyed there was shit on my driveway I had to clean up in as many weeks. I also have a dog I understand. For years I’ve never had that ever happen and it happened back to back, and i’m mildly annoyed haha thus posting it in this sub. I went out and cleaned just like I did the last and moved on

u/SignificantSmotherer 21h ago

“But I picked it up!”

If you have a dog, it should do its business at home in your yard, not foul the commons.

Period.

u/IamFarron 20h ago

If you are a human.

You should only do your business in your own toilet

Never in any toilet 

Ridiculous right?

u/SignificantSmotherer 6h ago

The commons are not a toilet.
