...based on a ratio of nice weather bringing people outdoors to steaming fly-infested, sun-baked dog-eggs littering the local woods today.
What is wrong with people? You have a dog and pick it's turd up FFS! Not sure whether stepped-in eggs is worse than them hanging in white bags tied to branches which must be so last year 😕
I just find it easier to avoid dog egg machine walkers. In extremis we shall be emigrating if UKIP get into power.
A good mate of mine picked some up (in a bag of course) he then walked up to the offending human and said 'excuse me I think you've dropped something' when human held out his hand, my mate proceeded to empty bag contents into it........ He's also quite a big hard b45t4rd too so got away with it.
Seriously irks me Wayne, no excuse for it and I have noticed it worsening recently.
I am on the lookout for the inconsiderate ****s whenever I'm out and about.
Thats OK just booked Five holidays in Spain, over the coming Months through to December.
Fist trip in May. 😉
I don't have a dog but as I understand it, you only pick up if there are people watching no? Thus taking it to the woods.
I knew there was one benefit to road riding (which I've done a lot of this bank holiday weekend to be fair)...
No Dog Eggs to avoid!
Try riding right out in the wilds (less popular parts of Suffolk). Away from dog walking areas it's dog pooh free, less gnar more XCwill do it.
I've seen quite a few little baggies left in the grass right on the edge of the cycle path out of town today. I just wish I could catch someone doing it when I've got my camera, their photos would be up on social media, and in the local newspaper.
Vile individuals. 😡
I live in a "nice" village, full of spaniels and chocolate labradors, whose owners seem to think it far beneath them to pick up their sh*t. The same arsewits then look down their noses at us because we have a couple of staffies.
Living next to a country park in summer is like living next to a dogs**t processing plant when all those lovely townies (who don't even pay for the park by using the car park, much better to block my drive...) pop down to let their (barely controlled) pets defecate all over the place...
Still mystified by the bag tied to a tree thing...
Dog owners should give up the pretence, it is not 'taking the dog for a walk' it is 'taking the dog for a shit'. Simple as.
If anyone is caught not clearing up they should be marched back to the spot and have their face rubbed in it. I don't think anyone would risk it a second time.........

[b]Fist[/b] trip in May.
Wow! 😯
Did you book that through a travel agent or are you just gonna look shifty in customs?
I'm a dog owner my dogs shite is always picked up. As is all the litter that's dropped just by the bin on our road. Two walks a day and at least 2 items of other people's crap I put in the bin. And don't get me going on gel wrappers, tubes etc on trails
Dumping bagged turds into sheep salt-lick buckets seems to be on trend round these parts this spring. Hanging on gates and in trees still proving popular though.
dogs tend to foul quite early in a walk hence the problem near car parks, plus plenty of people just open the car door and let the dog out to toilet itself
I'm surprised the "flick into the bushes" lot haven't posted
😉
Can we stop calling them eggs. Its poo, turd, faeces, shite, etc.
Eggs they are not.
I'd love to find the person that thinks it's ok to let their dog crap in the road,on my commute to work nearly every day without fail.
My dog one curled one out when we were crossing the road. By the time I got the shite bag out, an Audi thundered past (way over the speed limit), taking most of the aforementioned poo with him...
This is every morning a,new one appears right at the in the gutter.

That happened to me walking a friend's hound. Bloody thing started to lay a cable half way across a busy main road. I had to drag it the rest of the way bouncing along on its arse 😀
No I didn't go back to clear up.
Erm...legally isn't it OK to let them crap in the road?
Think you might be right Eddie, it's certainly the case for horse shit...But that's another story...
I'm not saying pick it up from the middle of the road,this is a massive pile most mornings on at a quite time,it's just not nice having to dodge the dog turds.
just not nice having to dodge the dog turds.
Think of it as dual-slalom practice

Not in an area covered by the dog fouling act it's not.
We went for a walk around Delamere on Sunday, not only were there numerous pooh filled bags all over the place but the FC's stance seems to be flick it away from the path rather than pick it up, judging by the numerous signs on the marked routes!
