'Poop' bags around 2 quid for 50 'Nappie bags' 35 pence for 300. From the scoundrels at the every little helps place. Would not have known that, having raised kids with environmentally friendly real cotton nappies!
Thank you for being a responsible dog owner & scooping that poop. Really bugs me to see dog shit left lying there, especially near playparks for kids.
Last week we had a soiled nappy left in the middle of our son's football team pitch. Unbelievably thoughtless.
Back in late-80s some family friends were really worried when one of their sons out playing got dog shit in his eye, they were worried he'd lose the sight of it. Thankfully he was ok.
Thank you for being a responsible dog owner & scooping that poop. Really bugs me to see dog shit left lying there, especially near playparks for kids. We sometimes get the B******* on our front lawn. Not sure whether to install an electric fence or mines. Don't take doggy to public parks, she tends to eat too many kids. Long rural walks, when she chooses the route we go twice as far. Sometimes late at night also. (ps scoundrels knife crime promotion: Thomas knives promotion - Tesco.com)
Would not have known that, having raised kids with environmentally friendly real cotton nappies! Cotton nappies are about the closest known facsimile to toxic nuclear waste. I have recurring nightmares about that diaper pail! You're a stronger man than I, Geoff. Tried those for a while but moved on to disposable. The upside was, for years afterwards, having a plentiful supply of chamois for the car.
Train you dogs to poop in your own bag garden and use a spade. When we out always have doggy bags, my '68 pattern combat jacket is full off them, spare leads and old doggy sweets. Nappies bags could be a good tip will try thanks
' Would not have known that, having raised kids with environmentally friendly real cotton nappies! Cotton nappies are not environmentally friendly having to wash them all that energy. Hehe I was very little baby when I went to the US my mum fell in love with pampers which you could not get in the UK at the time.
We've been using nappy bags for years. Anyone who has me as a friend on FB would have noticed I have taken on a Plantation next to the development where I live. We have done 3 Operation Dusters to date (Community clean ups) and have collected around 100 sacks of rubbish, a toilet, UPVC doors, various m/bike and car parts, carpets to name but a few. As a result of our efforts to date as a community the council as a thank you have given us a 100 oak trees to plant as a thank you. I'm currently in the process of organising Operation Green Trees I for the local children to plant these trees on Saturday. Back to the main theme of poop-Our biggest problem now is trying to get the dog owners to clear up after their dogs. In two days I picked up 26 bags of poop along a 30 metre stretch of one of the paths, all of it was within spitting distance of a poo bin and now the same stretch of path is littered with poo This is the land we have taken 'ownership' of to clean up. It runs for about a mile towards the M62. Ps sorry for blowing my own trumpet but we, the community and me obviously, are quite excited about this and I think its a fantastic example of what is possible in your own community if you get together and take some responsibility.
Our dog passed away in November but like Drew, I keep finding those little baggies in the pockets of all my coats and jackets. Not much of a problem here with the doggy doo. Most folks are very good about cleaning up after their pets. But don't get me started on the cats...............
It's a $250.00 fine in Calgary for not picking up after your dog. It is also reportable, doesn't need a Bylaw officer to see it, to enforce it. You just become a witness. Bylaw officer goes to their house and gives them a ticket, unless they go back and clean it up at the behest of Bylaw. DNA has been used in some repetitive offender cases to ID the dog when the owner fights the fine which can go to $1,000.00 or more per incident I think for repeats. Now, if we can get all cats licensed people can start to pay for letting them roam unattended off their property. Reminds me, I need to clean up my cat trap so it's ready for spring.
This is the land we have taken 'ownership' of to clean up. It runs for about a mile towards the M62. Looks like quite a nice flying field for small foam airmodels - minimal weight therefore vety little energy therefore minimal danger. And in the early hours there won't be much people about except for the odd dog-walker. Besides at that hour there won't be much wind, and dogs go crazy running after flying airmodels barking at the funny birds The ponds look great for model boating as well!
(ps scoundrels knife crime promotion: Thomas knives promotion - Tesco.com) Pretty decent looking kitchen knives to me, I have a number, each for its purpose, carving, peeling, chopping vegetables, filleting fish, etc. I could shave with mine Then what? "When you outlaw kitchen knives, only outlaws will have kitchen knives" What next? Screwdrivers? Ice-cream scoops?
Then what? "When you outlaw kitchen knives, only outlaws will have kitchen knives" Of course they should not be outlawed, who suggested so? just the design needs changes as suggested by some surgeons who get to see the results. Folks like you who slaughter and butcher their own warthogs for the barbie, of course, will need such tools. What next? Screwdrivers? Ice-cream scoops? Yes to these. Also include guitar strings and elastic bands.

Fantastic! Well done. In some schemes around here they are planting apple and pear trees also. The real English varieties, not some EC crap.
Train you dogs to poop in your own bag garden and use a spade. I do hope you are not burying the stuff - very bad. And If you know how to train a horse to p1ss in a bucket, you get free beer for a week.

(ps scoundrels knife crime promotion: Thomas knives promotion - Tesco.com) Over here some folks place plastic bottles of water on their lawns to stop dogs pooping. It seems to work - something to do with dogs not doing it near a water source. Either that or they mistake the bottles for huge dog t***s and think a much bigger dog lives there. Pete
Over here some folks place plastic bottles of water on their lawns to stop dogs pooping I thought that was to stop cats crapping in flower beds ??
Confirmed today with the Natural Habitats team from Leeds City Council that some of us will be getting an idiot guide to planting trees on Thursday and collecting 100 trees to plant on Sunday morning.
