Found a bag of poo....what would you do?
 

I leave it for those who collect such things. It is quite disgusting that there are enough people around who just drop the bag of doo and walk off. What is wrong with you people????

Oh boy, another dog poop thread!:censored:

Fortunately the other 98.85769 % of us do it right!:)

Good News.................this is just a generic poop thread.

& without pictures..................it's probably fake news.

:1rotfl: but the pictures are the best part!

Bag of poo
 

Oh, Boy! I'd hope it's a bag of money! At least, it was in a bag. Perhaps the dog owner dropped it by mistake. S..t happens.

Found a bag of money. What would you do?
Trying to get a consensus. If you found a paper bag with money in it and it had no identification markings. Just a plain paper bag. What would you do?

The OP did not specify that it's dog poo.

It could be construction worker/spackle bucket poo. If they are thinking of others, they use a bag.

Maybe, I would throw it away and forget it. There are plenty of more important things to get my panties in a wad about.

BTW, was it dog poo? Or is this another take on the man who pee'd thread?

I found a bag today. I picked it and threw it away.

I didn't complain about it, I didn't wait for someone else to take care of it, I didn't ignore it.

Was it on fire?
 

And did you stamp it out?

There thousands of dogs in the villages who poop twice or three times a day. You found one bag….owner bagged and something happened. Pretty sure owner didn’t bag it and leave it for you to find. We don’t need to hear about it.

Drop it , hole 2 ....

I think what we are experiencing, and I don't mean to cause widespread fear or panic, is a poodemic.

If they planned to leave it I don't think they would have gone through the trouble of bagging it. Some folks bag it but don't want to carry it around on the walk so they leave it and then grab it back up on their way home. At least I hope that's what's going on.

Know who the irresponsible dog owners is? As adolescent s we would leave it at the offenders doorstep, light it on fire, ring the door bell and run! The owner will open the door --
and stamp it out. Eeww.

I often leave the bag by the curb so I don't have to carry it for 3 miles. Then I pick it up on the way back from our walk. I'm sure that's what most people do. Otherwise they wouldn't bother to bag it at all. You just happened to find it before they doubled back to pick it up.

that's a rarity, dog owners are very good about picking up after their dogs. Give people the benefit of the doubt, FGS

Maybe the owner lived on your street and was going to pick it up on the way back from his walk

That's settled then. On to roundabouts.

It's good fertilizer. Carry it over to the other thread regarding bad lawns and leave it. 💩💩 💩

Probably left it so they could pick it up on their way back on the walk. Don’t worry about it. Carry in with your day.

Oh God. You dont live in a bubble. Ignore it or dispose of it but most of us arent really interested in this

Poop Stations?
 

Maybe residents should get together and suggest The Villages put in poop stations. In my community, we have poop stations throughout the community that supply poop bags and drop boxes. Then the service company comes by weekly and replaces more poop bags and cleans out the poop stations. And if anyone might think the stations smell,, they don't! It's just a thought. 🙂

I’m a dog owner and sadly, many people are too lazy to carry it as they should. I bought these little straps that connect to your leash. They are made to hold a poop bag so you don’t have to carry it.

Leaving it on our public paths and picking it up later is just plain lazy.

Dog S_ _ _ _
 

These are the same people who let the dog crap in others yards when no one they think is looking

He won’t do it.
 

I’ve tried for years, my dog won’t poop in the bag.

$$$$

BTW where is your community??

Newcomers, visitors. It is interesting that this behavior increases during mass migration into The Villages and on holidays involving an influx of visitors. Yes, it happens occasionally during the rest of the time, but not nearly as often. The dog walkers who are here all year quickly learn that is not acceptable behavior. I do not hesitate to suggest that when they pick up their bag I can give them a spare for the rest of their walk.

Here ya go.
 

💩 lol

What should you do? Hop on your computer and write a post to tell the world.

I must admit that in the past I have been guilty of doing that once or twice. I don't do it anymore, but I would leave the baggie by a lamp post or street sign as I walked my loop and pick it up on my way back by. There were a couple times I completely forgot to pick it up - thus the reason I no longer leave it anywhere.

First of all I am not a dog owner but have been in the past.

A dogs natural instinct, for health reasons is not to relieve itself where it lives.

I doubt you will find a single post saying I leave my dog's behind when I look around and find no one looking. So where does it come from with everyone being perfect?

Cooperation? Responsibility obviously work only sometimes.

For people who can't or won't train their pets, apply repellents.
For all those who will surely protest, realize no problem if you do not allow your dog on my property.

Not intentional
 

Most likely a mistake and not intentional. If someone is that inconsiderate why even bag it in the first place. What you ought to be concerned about are people who don’t even make the effort to bag.

IT IS NOT. First of all a dog is a meat eater. Due to disease we use only manure from vegetable eating animals such as cows.

If, it is such great fertilizer you can you should walk YOUR PET on your property.

Reality.

Walk your dog to the mailboxes and let your dog do his business pick it up with your bag and put it in the trash bin provided there....just a little humor in a lot of s..t.

Better wear our masks outdoors again just in case the pandemic of poo bags could be toxic

If you found a bag of dog poop, what would you do? Keep it, or give it to the police?

Really people?
 

I agree it is not considerate to drop poop bags ; but think about it. If the person is considerate enough to bring bags and pick up the poop (which everyone should do out of respect for others), does it make sense that they would just drop the bag? Why even bother picking it up then?

Unless you see this in the same area, over and over, I would assume it's a one-off. Something unusual happened that day.

"what would you do?" My advise: Pick up the bag, throw it out and get on with your day. If after that, you are still looking for something to get angry about, turn on the news.

A lot of you pass this off as if it is nothing. “Move on”, ”Quit complaining…”, "There are worst things that can happen”. If I was a betting man I would say everyone of you with this flippant attitude is a pet owner. Imagine for a moment if everyone in your neighborhood was a horse owner except for you and every day you walk out to your yard and find a big pile that someone left for you because they were too lazy and inconsiderate to pick up after themselves. I am new to The Villages and over the last year I have never been able to mow my lawn without having to first pick up pile after pile of crap. You can all laugh it off but it is not funny for those of us who chose to live a pet-free life. Villagers who don’t own pets don’t even care if you use the lawn as your bathroom. They just expect some common courtesy and respect and ask that you clean-up after your pet. Is that so difficult? “Move on, quit complaining and there are worse things that can happen than picking up your own dog’s sh*t!"
