There's a dog owner who's been letting his pooch s**t in front of my house, and the neighbours either side, for the last year. I've reported it several times, all to no avail.
The final straw came when both neighbours, with young children, told me of 'nasty' stories involving dog s**t and their, or their childrens clothing.

I've had enough, and at the weekend I ordered a remote infra red camera with receiver. I have a hard drive recorder already, and considering the frequentity of the feckers sh**ing, I should get him pretty pronto.

Disclaimer, I do not hold the pooch responsible, but the lazy owner has no excuse. I run a dog business myself and I have 2 dogs, but I have always cleared up after them, as it is my choice/repsonsibility to own them ;)
 
sprinkle your spent hops everywhere cats stay clear of my beds and so dogs might do too.

alternatively spend £50 down the pub and get Bazza to give the guy a gentle reminder of his civic duties.
 
Pick it up and when he comes round the next day give it him.... and have Big Bazza on hand in case he gets gobby.
Even with video evidence I will be surprised if the local authority do anything.
 
figure out who it is, and where he lives... stick all the dog mess that keeps appearing in a container and collect it over several months in a lidded bin in your yard or somthing until you've got a decent pile of it.... then dump the whole lot on his doorstep :P

revenge is a dish best served cold, and it's even better when you have the patience to bide your time :twisted: :twisted:
 
Have you tried just approaching him and telling him that you and your neighbours have an issue with his dog ******** in front of your house and that he should clear it up?

Personally i'd run out with some nice fresh turds i'd just curled out and throw it at him every time he walks past your house. He'd prolly find another route to walk his dog.
 
I've actually done the following . . . Dog shits in front garden, . . . Owner watches . . . . Dog finishes and they continue on . . . I run out front door armed with plastic bag and collect 'doings' . . . . . The chase after owner shouting "Oi mate you dropped something" . . . . Then Give him said plastic bag
















Of course it does help that I can do the hundred meters in around 12 seconds :lol:
 
A mates neighbours dogs used to **** on his doorstep all the time. They would open there door & dogs immediately home in on his doorstep. New build houses with no garden fences. Twice ive stepped out of his house into dog **** & he & his lass have a few times. He has complained loads of times but he & she would just say there too quick. Get em on a lead first then. The second time i did stand in it i hopped to there front door & rubbed my shoe over the door lock, letter box & door bell. Oops the doorbell rang. Hubby came to the door. Fat c**t got irate so i told him he'd be licking it off my shoe next time. Police visited my mate about me wanting my name & address. They told my mate to ring the dog warden. There response was 'as its on private property they cant do anything about it'.
My mate scoops it onto a dustpan & splats it on there door & doorstep if its still fresh enough. I have posted it through the cat flap but keeping hold of the bread bag. The next turd will go on the golf windscreen & door handle.
Doesnt happen as much as it used to these days.

My neigbours dog shits in my garden but i just lob it back over as she's about 80 & on her own. Dont want to give her a heart attack, me picking on her. Need to build a new fence but cant afford right now. Cant mistake a Dane turd to a mini mongrels. I think she feeds hers Chappie.
She doesnt have much to say to me after the time she came round near midnight banging on my door to ask for her dog back.
 
Dump a load of pepper in the area the dog drops his guts at, After a few nose full of that he wont want to go near the area. Unfortunatley it may stop other animals as well. Or you could use citrus fruits as cats and dogs dont really like that either.
 
The easiest way to stop a dog messing in front of your house is to put soap powder down...they hate it....that's not the real reason though. The enzymes in the powder destroy the 'something or others' that make the pooch drop a turd in the first place ;) It's a well known training technique.

Even with video evidence I will be surprised if the local authority do anything.

Round here environment on call will stake out your house at any 'certain' time if you have 'good' evidence.
They will even test the faeces at the 'site' and test against a supsect pet...if you have good proof.

My wife once offered to give a bloke a toilet bag as his pet had done it's business outiside our house and the owner didn't clear up. He upset her so much with his tirade that she phoned me at work...it took me 15 minutes to drive a 25 minute driving journey, but I never found him :evil:

I'm not willing to chat with the offender after such frequent fouling, I'll let the council deal with him.
If that fails a chat will ensue.
 
Follow the f**ker home & put it through his letterbox minus the bag you use. If he confronts you about it just remind him he's breaking the law by allowing his dog to **** on the public footpath. Be doubtful if he rings the police.

Just do what i did.
 
Oldy but a goodie.

  • Scoop up turd in old newspaper
    Walk to owners house
    Check they are in
    Deposit wrapped turd on doorstep
    Set paper alight
    Ring doorbell
    Walk away

<stamp stamp stamp urgh!>

Got to love my late great dad for teaching me that one.
 
If you had not dogs of your own I'd sugest an ultrasonic scarer on a PIR setup, the dog would haul it's owner to the other side of the street to avoid your patch, there is no way on the planet that dog would even walk past your house, but it would drive your own dogs mental, if you could track a pattern, have your house dog free for the envisaged strike, it would work. As I'm sure you know it may take several tries to imprint the situation in the dogs brain.
Sorry I could not be more helpful.

Got the camera working tonight, it's a beaut at only £30 including receiver...and it has infra red leds for short quarter action :cool:

I think I know who it is and the pooch is a chi hua hua...though the size of the turds beg to differ :hmm:
 
Naughty naughty. Making the dog ill isnt the answer.

Some fucker keeps, i presume poisoning my dog. She lost loads of weight just after xmas. Put that down to her chomping on a dead sea bird. £35 at the vets sorted it. She piled on the weight again. Twice ive seen her from the kitchen window eating a cricket ball sized white stuff. Im thinking its a ball of bread with something not nice in it. The dog then wont eat for a few days, has major shits & her ribs start to show through. If i check the garden before she gets let out in the morning then theres never anything there. Just happens on the days when i forget to check.

Setting a camera up would be pointless as the item isnt big enough to trip the sensor 20m away.
Its coming from either directly behind or 1 of 2 houses to my right.

My bet is its 2 doors away as she got me busted for growing plants in my back garden & then just by chance her car got nitromosed twice in the month following. Nowt to do with me though. I was away on both nights hahaha. Always been a runnin battle with that c**t of a family. Parking wars, gobby teenage daughters, complaint to the dog warden about my dog barking, the woman making life hell for the old bid next door to me that ended up moving.
Im just waiting for the right time to tell her that i caught her hubby on the beach with another woman in his sign written van. Like when she has half the street in her front garden for a BBQ. Few beers & i'll let it all spill out.
They really dont like me as im prepared to have an argument in the street rather than take the **** & look like a soft c**t. Hubbys terrified as he doesnt know when im gonna open my gob. He ends up losing it with his wife & daughters to get them away in hope i dont tell all.

Anyway dogs.....
My mutt does bark but its only coz the dog 3 doors away barks constantly which triggers off all the local dogs. So i think my dogs being targeted due to the bark being the loudest & me being the owner.
I think another trip to the vets is coming very soon coz shes got a dicky tummy again. So yet another £35 to be spent & as im a s/e plasterer & work is very f**king slow at the mo it f**king hurts my pocket, the unnecessary spending. Then "No, making the dog very i'll isnt the answer" . Take it out on the owner.

If need be get the dog **** & literally shove it in his face. The worst is you'll end up fighting & possibly being arrested. So what? But if he knows you mean business he'll not even walk down your street again never mind letting it **** outside your house.
Maybe we have totally different lives where the few times ive been arrested i didnt give a **** but it might upset you, i dont know, but you need to do something very soon. Either sort it out the harsh way with the dog owner or just put up with it & hose the turd into the gutter. Coz if you let it stress you out over time then you'll make yourself ill, in your body & head. Dont let it go that far.

falafael - I know it was only a suggestion but **** like that makes me a bit angry right now.
 
Quite right..it's certainly not the dog who's to blame ;)
 
sorry about that, it was a of the head idea, and a bad one now i think about it, i like pets myself, have 4 cats here, but yeah dog **** would do my head in, personally, i'd just approach him and bollock him.....either that go to his house and take a **** on his garden...preferably after a curry night!

Yes, taking it out oin the animal isn't right, :(
 
There's a good scene in "Me, Myself and Irene" where Jim Carrey's character takes a dump on his neighbours lawn after years of getting his **** on!

If you have/can get a hard drive recorder, you wont need a sensor. Just press record and away you go :thumb:
