Dog Poo in the garden..... What do YOU do with it? :)

[Linz13]

I bag it and bin it.

Just after we moved though had an issue with next doors dog being in my garden EVERY MORNING, doing a poop and barking at me - cheeky swine, well, it got to the stage I was picking up more of next doors dog mess than my own, so I started chucking in over into their garden 

One night after a bad day, I threw it so hard it hit their back door and slid down in (UPVC).  Funnily enough their dog didn;t come into me garden again.

I'm glad I posted this thread, feel less alone in the dark world of 'you know what' now!

Bag and bin here too, and if Bailey does it while we're at work and there's no dog bin around, we're most days to be seen with a nappy bag hanging off the rear wiper blade till we get home! When he was very young, it was nothing to have 3 bags hanging there!

...Sammy hardly ever does a poop in our garden, usually when he's got an icky tum, but if he does, i bag it then take it to the field where we walk and put it in the dog bin provided I wouldn't put it in our wheelie bin as they are only emptied every 2 weeks

VERY off-topic, I know, but a friend who lives in a south coast city recently had a horrendous problem with her drains whereby the sewage of most of her road ended up on her drive.

Many dramas ensued, but the most vile was that she had to bag up the human wast and filled 3 big, strong waste bags. She then phoned  . WHen she explained again what it was and how much there was, she was told to take it to the tip and put it in the garden waste At one point she was even told to lie about what was in the sacks.

She is now having a very stressful time with environmental health and is planning to "go public" pretty soon if she can't get it sorted. (She no longer has the precious bundles, but I am afraid I can't remember what she did do with it in the end. I will try to find out.)


As for dog poo, I bag and bin. But do try to use biodegradeable ones now.

Found the Pet Poo Converter Wormery HERE

Dont know if its big enough to hold my 2 dogs poops though! Anyone know how long it takes the worms to convert?

I picked up dog pooh belonging to a straying dog and took it and the dog back to the owner.
 gave her a lecture too!

Good on you Jean 

But I am even more impressed that you knew whose poo it was!

Currently we just compost, as we have done nothing with the garden yet.... however we do hope to grow veggies in time, so may have to look into a wormery or something, as I don't like the idea of sticking a biodegradable product into a plastic bag.... Quite happy to bag and bin when out and about - though she normally does her business so far off the beaten track that I just leave it (If I don't think I can safely get there to pick it up, I don't think it poses risks to children!  If I can reach I try and throw some leaves over, as this helps it decompose more quickly...).
