I certainly do not think it was wrong what your husband did! I would have done exactly the same thing. What is wrong with these people?! Nice to see you here today my friend.<br /><br />flowers on my table - I think we're all as one on this particular subject!! It has been a glorious warm day today with the sun shining non-stop, so I do hope it is like that with you today. As you say, overflowing bins are almost as bad!

In our park, they don't seem to have enough bins, so the bins are always overflowing with bags which is a bit revolting also!

We have to deal with people who allow their dogs to leave their "mess" in our garden. Yes, I said garden. At the entry to our driveway I have a garden border and some decorative rocks, flowers etc. Many a time we have asked people ( politely) to not let their dogs relieve themselves on the rock or in out garden. Not to mention leave their"mess" behind. There was a time a few years back when the same woman would keep letting her dog leave a mess...I hope you don't think badly of us when I tell you this.... My husband collected the mess in a bag for a week! Took it to her house knocked on he door and said" this belongs to you". She walks her dog on a different path now. I wonder who is receiving her pets mess now...Sigh<br /><br />Big hugs my friend enjoy your time with family. xoKatherines Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05490354550754091626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-884235015796031442.post-3318573827205776052011-07-02T11:31:59.263+01:002011-07-02T11:31:59.263+01:00Aunt Amelia's Attic - that was good that you f...Aunt Amelia's Attic - that was good that you fought to have that law brought in, and horrible that your daughter was bitten like that. I didn't realize that Paris was like that, with the dog poo. Ugh!! <br /><br />rainbow - oh, that's just awful that people dump their pets like that! :( What on earth are these people thinking of, but how good that you get your pets this way. Good for you! Hope you have a lovely weekend over there.<br /><br />Olive - glad you liked the photos! Hope you have a lovely weekend over there too.<br /><br />Belle - hi there! What a brilliant idea to have a bag machine in the park for those who forget to bring one. Hope you're having a good weekend my friend.<br /><br />Chatty Crone - thank you. Yes, Alfred is a little cutie, and he is so well behaved!<br /><br />Susan - thank you! Yes, it is such a shame that some dog owners aren't more responsible. As you say, when little ones are playing or running around, they aren't looking out for it like we have to.<br /><br />Becca - I so agree, you wouldn't leave your children's mess in the park, so why even think of leaving the dog's mess! Ugh!<br /><br />Duncan - hi there. Ugh, that was gross what that little boy did!!

It's awful that some people can just leave it hanging around. <br /><br />This morning I saw the Malaysian equivalent of this problem - a young boy peeing in a roadside drain beside the chicken rice shop!

It's a shame when you have to watch where you walk, and children don't pay attention when they're romping thru the grass. You're right, it looks bad for those who do go along and pick up.<br /><br />Yes, we're all bearing down for the Independence holiday, but there are burn bans out. It is so hot and dry, that some cities are banning fireworks. I'm okay with that, I stay away from them anymore. It's too dangerous. So, I'll watch them on TV safely!

Now after seeing the effects of the leaving it I so totally agree with you. Living out in the country we do not see it that much but what get me is the people who get tired of their pets and just dump them in the country. That is how we got all our pets. Two dogs and two cats not to minchen the Shitsue we are baby sitting for Calvin and Sue. I would LOVE to take the DUMPERS and stick them in the middle of a desert and kick them out.<br /><br />HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND AND ENJOY YOUR FAMILY.rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609851698876703006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-884235015796031442.post-33968827554040828632011-07-01T17:17:35.035+01:002011-07-01T17:17:35.035+01:00This is an important issue.

(Our little daughter was bitten, and I led the campaign to get this law, btw.)<br /><br />Along with the leash law, we have a Clean Up After Your Pets law. People walk their dogs, carrying a plastic bag and put the dog pooh in it. <br /><br />Our city is not like Paris.

It does make you wonder about their mentality. Hope you have a lovely weekend.<br /><br />Gawgus things - Ugh, that's pretty gross about the streets of Paris. We certainly don't see much of it in the streets around here - only in the parks :(<br /><br />Bouncin'Barb - that's sweet of you to say that you like the photo! People used to say that my eldest daughter looked very much like me, with the same characteristics, but we could never really see it! Hope you and Bruce will have a good weekend my friend. At least it won't be quite so tiring as last weekend! Hugs.<br /><br />Retired English Teacher - Yes, they certainly should be fined but, just how do you police this sort of thing.

With all the publicity about it, I just can't understand why they don't pick up the mess.

Can't believe those neighbours let their pups poop in the gutter!!! :(<br /><br />Desiree - glad you liked the photos my friend! Yes, it is really so sad when these beautiful places are being defaced by all this dog mess. I honestly couldn't believe just how much there was around. Have a good weekend over there in S.A.<br /><br />LindyLouMac in Italy - I suppose that could be a point. Perhaps they are out on their own, but I've never seen any dogs on their own. I think that would be quite unusual in this particular area. Enjoy your weekend my friend.Southhamsdarlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12285980805569582676noreply@blogger.com
