Am I the only person that makes my dog carry her own poop bag? I just double knot it and attach it to where the leash attaches on her harness. All these people talking about putting bags in their coats or carrying them…I don’t get it.
Idk I’d rather a passerby toss their poop or other trash in my can rather than throw it on the ground. Hell if you’re really desperate and can’t afford trash service I’d even tolerate a bag. But don’t be filling up my can.
I used to like in a neighborhood where one lady would randomly throw her trash bags in someone’s yard or behind my fence. City wouldn’t do shit about her. I didn’t like any of it and never did figure out where she lived but I was at that point of just telling her to put it in the fucking can because at least I wouldn’t have to pick it up after the raccoons got into it and scattered it in the grass behind the fence.
Sounds like a terroristic threat to me.
If someone did this in my neighborhood, every single dog walker in the area would go out of their way to deposit 100% of their poop babies (autocorrect but I’m leaving it) in this trash can only. If I was still in Texas, we’d open carry while doing it!
Seriously people. No one should tolerate elder abuse.
Must be a posh nimby, don’t know why anyone would willing carry dogshit around with them, especially if there’s no public bins available, just don’t use the same one every time.
sweet sweet suh-suh-suh-sweet can
Where is the poop supposed to go then?
In the old ladys trash can, some people just don’t want dog shit smeared in theirs.
And threatening to behead an old lady is totally an appropriate response.
Never said it was 🤷
It’s in a bag, though, right? I mean, if old lady is just naked hand fisting shit into the trash can there’s bigger problems to tackle there.
Even bagged the stench can be overpowering when opening the lid of the trashcan.
Oh no inconvenienced for a few seconds 3 times a week. The HORROR!
Bins smell and you should clean them once in a while.
He sounds like a germapgobe that has never owned a dog.
Until someone throws it in your bin and it explodes or leaks and you now have to clean someone else’s shit.
Use your own bin.
I clean all of my bins every 2 months. You know, like you should to keep the smells down of your worried….
If I don’t want my bin used, I would put it somewhere it can’t be accessed, but I would much rather turds go in my bin than on my or others lawns.
Dont be an unneighborly shit heel, it’s a bag in a bin, that already stinks.
Hah! Got in your head so bad that you downvoted my entire history? Classic.
Luckily your comments are so downvoted that i don’t feel the need to add to the downvotes.
But officer, the trash… it was stinky!
I do think it’s rude to put dog bags in people’s private trash, but at least they picked it up. I dunno, I just pull my can off the street when it’s not trash day. But my can already smells like my own dog’s shit, so /shrug
I would just be grateful that it wasn’t being left on the ground.
Yeah, I mean if it’s in bag tied up tight, the stink barely escapes. Worst case ontario you made someone’s garbage smell more like garbage, and someone else doesn’t have to step in it. Shocker
Speaking as someone with no skin in the game (I have no pets and I’ve never had weeks old bags of dog poop in my bin), does any dog poop keep the racoons away from your bins?
I also don’t have racoons getting into my trash (I do not overfill my trash bin and it is always left closed) but I do see their little paw prints appear on my trash can sometimes.
I wish my problems were so fucking pathetic.
Next time put it in top of the can.
I can tell the creator of this picture is a cat owner. As a dog owner, I just carry their shit home. But sometimes you just need to get rid of it.
I generally don’t care but by god if you do this after it’s just been emptied i will fucking end you
Do it to my recycling bin and i come after your family too
Assuming it’s sealed in a plastic bag and the night before collection, who cares? The alternative is carrying around a warm poop bag in your coat pocket until you get home. Seems completely reasonable to take care of it this way on trash night. If it’s not meeting those above two criteria, then hell yeah, it’s time for a new hood ornament.
When my dog poops I don’t put the poop bag in my pocket, I just carry it home. If there is a public trash can I will use it. Never in the pockets though. It is poop.
Trash collectors on my street don’t empty the can into the truck, they just grab the bag I put in and throw that in. That dog shit bag would stay in my can until I moved it to the larger bag. I should not have to do that.

What kind of psycho puts the bag in their pocket? /s
With all the pointy bits and pieces in my coat pockets I’d end up with bits, pieces, and coat pocket covered in dog shit.
Cold weather. Dog that needs two hands on leash and no sidewalk so carrying a flashlight. Needs a dedicated pocket. Also, while these dog aliens have definitely enslaved us, I like the modicum of dignity provided by not visibly showcasing that I’m carrying a dangling bag of their poo I picked up.
Ah.
If it’s the night before collection, no one would notice or care. People who do that are not the people anyone complains about.
What happens is people dump their plastic bag of dog poop in the empty can. So it stays there.
Next pickup the resident’s trash bags go on top of it. The trash men never manage to get the poop bag out. After a couple weeks of hoping it will disappear next time, the person whose can it is has to dump it out and put it in a bag with their trash.
People who dump their dog’s poop bag in other people’s cans should be force fed the bag.
Actually dumb NIMBY-esque take. Surprised to see this on lemmy, but not that surprised. It’s trash going in the trash dude. You’re complaining about a problem with the trash can itself, and only if someone’s dropping it in an empty container. And you really think you should be so territorial over your trash. Get real.
I never used to understand the people that just left a poop bag alongside the road, but suddenly now I feel like I understand exactly what exchange led to that choice.
I don’t. Just carry it home. Why are people so damn irresponsible?
If you don’t want to carry the poop to your own trash, either don’t have a dog, or let it shit in your yard.
Ehh, I’d prefer they bag it and put it in my trash bin, rather than just leaving a pile of shit in my yard. I’d honestly prefer neither, but using my bin to throw poop bags or even loose trash doesn’t bother me too much
But my bin is also only on the curb when it’s trash day. And they pick them up twice a week here, so a poop bag won’t necessarily “marinate” in there for long. And I rinse the bin with a hose if it becomes gross, but that’s rare because usually the rain will handle most of it
But that’s just my particular situation, so it doesn’t bother me as much. I could easily see how a multitude of different factors, might make the situation aggravating/infuriating
Never thought I’d feel lucky about my trash bin situation though. Sometimes it really is the little things I guess
Where I lived, all your trash needs to be in a trash bag. There isn’t some big truck that drives around, picking up the whole trashcan and dumping it in the back. It’s literally just a guy in a golf cart who takes everything out of the bin by hand and tosses it on a trailer. If it’s not in a trash bag he won’t take it. If the trash bag is broken he won’t take it. So if some lazy shit head is too fucking delicate to carry their dog’s shit long enough to dispose of it properly, and instead toss it into my bin, it stays there and becomes my problem.
Fuck you for owning a dog if you can’t be bothered to clean up after it.
This is funny?
It’s a poem
There are poetry communities
I always feel like a douche when I do this, but sometimes I’m in a bind. Soz bro.
