Snow Again!

Our avid readers will be aware that snow has played a front line role in encouraging owners not to clean up. Indeed, my own garden was fouled, see here.

A similar incident was captured on film in Bridgton Maine, USA. Here, we see a neighbour (I assume) allowing his/her dog to wander into the victim's garden and leave a steaming deposit.

When this happened to me, I forgave the dog and owner and simply cleaned up. The snow makes it easier, it freezes the deposit, rendering the task easier and removes the likelihood of a gag reaction as the stench is also suppressed.

It could be said that snow and dog fouling go together like a hammer and a toilet!

I leave it to the reader/viewer to decide. Is this funny?

Does This Man Clear Up?

I ask because he seems to have been a target. He has a dog...another coincidence? I wonder! Why him? Why has somebody chosen to leave a festering bag of dog excrement outside his door rather than the front door of his neighbour?
If it were a joke, then why isn't the bag on fire?

I think the message is clear; "pick up or prepare for some through the letter box!"

Teaches respect!

A Teenager Battles The Red Rubber Band Menace!

This report had slipped through the net but better late than never!

Hats off to teenager Georgia Carter, who has taken the fight to the streets of Watford. Georgia went out and picked up a load of red rubber bands only to find more in their place in the following days. Concerned for the effect the discarded bands have on the environment, Georgia has decided to research the topic in school for her citizenship studies and raise awareness of the issue - in a bid to combat the problem.

Not content with her own efforts, she has brought her 5 year old sister into the battle: “During the weekend, I went out for a walk with my five-year-old sister and came across 57 rubber bands strewn across the pavement, some in heaps of five and more". This is enough to scar a teenager for life. I thought we had it tough in the seventies but having to cope with red rubber bands on the pavement is just a step too far!

The comments following the article include a lot of support and an observation from a disgruntled former employee.

Just as it looked like the topic had gone cold, we see a resurgence of interest!

While on the topic, if you think we're obsessed here, have a look at this gallery of red rubber band pictures. If these people were Premiership, we would be in the Conference League! Pictures here.

The battle is still on!

Innovative Uses for Dog Excrement

Here at Dog Fouling and Red Rubber Bands, we have seen many suggested uses for dog excrement. That said, the young people making this video/sound recording have taken the idea to a completely new level!

I wonder why the sales person hung up?

Stick with this, it gets there in the end!

This is just for fun and shows that even the experts get caught out sometimes!
