I use the Sainsbury's nappy bags (scented :) ) and even take two with me after getting caught out once with a 2nd go! ...lol

Yeah It does embarass me sometimes when I see it all over the place, it's not hard is it to clean up behind you, and is after all OUR responsibility after all, I don't see my dog picking it up himself!!

Thoughts occurs : ive seen many posts by people who are in favour of the Huntsman because he gobbles up the other nasties around the home so they are quite happy to leave him there to carry out this service. Doesnt this mean however that he is growing in size due to large consumption of roaches and mozzies etc etc... Picture the scene .... walk into bathroom one day the find 5 foot Huntsman sat on the bog!!! :scared:

Just a thought ..... :D

Well, in Brisbane they have a $250 fine if you don't pick it up. I never thought I could pick up dog crap, now I do it all the time, and its not a bother! Even late at night when theres no-one watching, and I could get away with it, I still pick it up.

And the great thing is, there are doggy crap bag dispensers at every park, so I only ever carry one with me, and if the wee lad feels particularly productive that night, I take another few from the dispenser.

I have noticed others aren't quite as socially concious. There was a large mound outside our house the other morning. But now I'm immune to the stuff, I just grabbed a doggy crap bag and picked it up. And if I ever see the owner, I'll rub it in his face :D

Cheers,
JTL
