Saturday morning the 31st I was walking the cart path near the Sunset Point gate when I noticed a couple walking what looked to be a Mastiff dog on the grass around the pond. My thought was large dog � large poop.
I was pleased to note that the man was carrying a plastic bag with the dog�s waste. I then turned around at the gate to walk back when I noticed the man�s hands were empty. I asked him what he did with the waste � his comment �I threw it behind the bushes (pointing to the bushes by the gate sign) because there is no waste container for him to dump it in�. I told him it was a terrible thing to do but my comments did not seem to faze either he or his wife.
Are we to ruin our beautiful landscaping because a bad dog owner is too lazy to carry his dog�s waste home to his own trash???

Someone did the same thing in front of our house yesterday.The sad thing is that it is probably one of our neighbors.

Unbelievable! And to think it is just fertilizer, in a bag, from a Mastiff in 95* temperatures. Unbelievable again!

Anyone that thinks it is fertilizer should openly welcome everyone to throw it in their yard.

After all it is cheaper than Scott's turf builder...

you can't fix stupid !

I believe Phanatic was using hyperbole and can't believe anyone thinks dog poop in a plastic bag is beneficial.
Me too.

At that point, why didn't you just take out your cell phone, call Community Watch, tell them what happened and trail the man - while on your phone until Community Watch arrived on the scene?

We got some nuts in this world. I wouldn't recommend anybody trail anybody.

We should have a thread called "Crazy of the Day," or "The Sh!# you See in The Villages." Yesterday, my contribution would have been telling about being dumbfounded watching a man hold a dog up at the human drinking water fountain outside the public restrooms at Spanish Springs while the dog licked and drank from the public water fountain. Yuck.

If I hadn't told them what a terrible thing they had just done but just kept my mouth shut then I would have followed them. Who knows, maybe they will see this and think twice before doing it again.

Its plain gross and disgusting!!!!!

[rubicon]

Well first of all since guy had a Mistiff on he other end of that leash I would not have been there long enough to have witnessed what this guy did with the dog's droppings. However, if I had I would not have for a second considered trailing him . I mean I watched the Zimmerman trial

finally given the poster's comments on the fountain drinking dog. I will never again use a public drinking fountain. I mean who does that!

[Parker]

The fountain post is just as bad, if not worse, than the poop post. The attitude of both owners are a mystery to me.
