    Anyone know where to report the above. We've lived in a lovely estate in the city for 10 years now. Never any trouble but 10 years this dog has shat all over the street. In my garden, he likes it beside my car door too. I've reported it to the city council once and nothing has been done.
    The owners in question open the door when the dog needs a shat and off he goes where my kids play etc...
    No point talking to the humans in question,

    The dog owner was probably walking in front of the dog and didn't see what they did....I see it all the time in my local park. If they don't see the dog doing it, they don't have to clean up seems to be the motto.

    They let him out to do his business as I said. And close the door

    I had the same problem here but with cat poo - my dog was very sick at the time and was digging and finding it, my mum would be gardening and come across it. I also wanted to bag and drop to the neighbour but my mam didn't want to cause any trouble. I got a couple of these from amazon and haven't had a cat in the garden since - I even had a quite satisfying video of the offender fleeing from the garden the first night lol. There's different settings on it - for the cat setting one of my dogs barked at it and the other put their head to one side and they acknowledged it as they passed the first few times and that was it. Possibly if you tweaked the settings it'd deter a dog too.

    fill a bag and post it to them put it into a sandwich bag in a jiffy bag actually post it with a stamp you at least can enjoy the thoughts of them opening it.

    Push a bit of it in through their key hole. Or maul their door with it. See how quick the problem ends.

    Ah come on... please don't use this forum to impart such disgusting suggestions nor to suggest damage to another's property in the name of revenge.
    Do not reply to this post on thread.
    Thanks.
