Well the Mound of the Hound of the Baskervilles was left outside my garden
gate last night. I played back my CCTV and I found the culprit and owner.
Now 24 hours later the same person has walked past with the same dog and
left another mound further down the street. I was ready this time and I
followed them home.

Traditional schoolboy method.
Place in paper bag.
Place paper bag in owner's porch (or Porsche).
Set paper bag alight.
Ring doorbell.
Hide behind hedge.
Watch as owner answers door and stamps out the flames.

or...

Simply bag it up and put in a Jiffy and post it to him.

I'm not too sure the use of a tennis racket to serve dog turds
overhand is all together wise. Isn't there a danger of the strings
doing the obvious to said turds whilst you're underneath?

Funny, you're one step ahead of me .... a few times I have notice some
"neighbour" (we're in a cul-de-sac, so I doubt it's a casual passer-
by) has let their dog crap on our drive. I have toyed with the idea of
a webcam overlooking the area.

No.

Unlike NZ we have indigenous wildlife beyond a flightless bird.

With foxes roaming the countryside, it is hardly reasonable to penalise
dog owners from adding to the piles of poo that are deposited by the
abundant species that roam in the areas most suburbanites don't go.

Agricultural land is exempt: A fact that many people who go to walk in
it don't know, which is why occasionally we find plastic bags full of
dog poo in the fields here. Id rather have the dog poo.

Yes, but it has to be enforced by the local council and there has to be

signs up saying £1000 fine and so on.

Oh I think it's entirely reasonable to penalise klods who take their
dogs for a walk on public rights of way footpaths just so they can use
it as a latrine.

There was a bit in the UK news recently, about farmers who would like
dog owners to pick up and remove dog turds. Apparently it can contains
a bug which is responsible for a large proportion of cows miscarrying.
Google will find it for anyone who's interested.

There are laws in UK urban areas, which chav-scum with status-symbol
agressive dogs ignor. Council wardens issue penalties to pensioners
who can't bend to collect the crap or school kids dropping litter. The
police are hiding in their stations.

I saw a blind man fumbling around to bag up his guide dog's deposit;
there's no excuse for most others.

Not half as much as foxes.

Foxes are disease ridden vermin, by and large.

Most dogs are not. They are usually wormed and fed clean food, ot carrion.

Towns are no place for dogs anyway.

I'd rather prosecute the countless mums who drop little Johnny's
knickers in the streets and verges.

Or toss nappies around to NOT rot.
At least turds are biodegradable.

Don't be silly. Lots of open spaces round here. Besides, dogs shouldn't be

If you know where they live, then scoop up the poop and leave it on
their door step for the following morning, but keep it close to the

bare feet.

Guide dogs are exempt from local pick-up laws, but most are trained to

I suppose doing it on the roof keeps the deposits out of sight.

It's not "a" or "a bug" it is three parasitic diseases, neospora,
sarcocytosis and toxoplasmosis. All can cause abortions in cattle. The
diseases can also be contracted by humans with similar consequences.

TNP's advice to put dog**** on plants is yet another sign of his idiocy.
If vegetables are grown in the same bed then there's a risk of the
diseases in the dog crap being picked up by humans.

Of course it was. A bunch of kids walked through it and made quite a
fuss. There were leaves on the footpath so the **** was not easy to
see. I cleaned up the large mess. Then I went through the video to see
who had made the mess, and it ws the dog of an elderly man. Then I
checked other days and saw the same dog making a mess on the otherside
of the road.
