The only reason I haven't in the past is because we go on 3+ mile walks and I don't want to hold it for an hour and a half.

And everyone keeps their trash cans outside so smell isn't an issue. I've lived in my neighborhood for 2+ years so that's more than 100 times since I've moved in and one person had an issue...

Like I said, I think it's fine to do but I'll just refrain going forward since certain people are sensitive for whatever reason

My poop bag holder has a nice clip to hold used bags.

Just store it in their mailbox and pick it up on the way home. Trash can crisis averted.

This crazy thread keeps popping up and like cmyx6go said, I can't look away from this train wreck caused by some ppl being so stubborn and selfish.

I didn't take a poll but the # of ppl thinking it's their RIGHT and no big deal is ridiculous and what's wrong w society. How is this even debatable? Trying to defend their position by going into technicalities like a wannabe lawyer and making up crazy, irrelevant scenarios involving wildlife?? Can ppl just debate properly? I guess not given some ppl from that one pov.

To ppl who are still so stubborn/selfish, the fact of the matter is that it is irrelevant what *you* think is acceptable, it's the thought of the *recipient* of your dog's manure that matters. You don't mind having someone else put it in your trash? Good for you. How about thinking about your fellow neighbor? Why not ask him/her if you can b4 you do it? Don't assume. If they said "no", would you still do it? Talk about having thick skin. Incredible to realize that many ppl think it's perfectly fine. No manners at all.

I don't have a dog but even w relatively innocuous stuff like paper trash, etc, I'd still feel weird about going onto somebody else's property, opening/touching their trash bins and stuffing garbage inside, never mind dog poop. It's trespassing and violating someone's privacy/property, and at the very least it's bad manners. Buncha awkward social deviants.

You're missing the entire point. The trash cans are on the street - I'm not going on anyone's property nor would I ever do that (especially out here in Arizona when everyone has a gun)

The poop bag is sealed and is on top of the trash bags before they're being picked up. The poop is not sitting in anyone's trash can for longer than a few hours depending on when it's picked up.

It appears in certain states that someone is physically picking up trash - out here a truck picks up the entire trash can so there is a 0% chance it's not removed.

Ironically, you're the one missing the pt: what did I say about being a wannabe lawyer? It's irrelevant what you say about where their property line ends/govt line begins, they still have to be responsible for and handling/maintaining their trash bins. Again, only thinking about yourself and not your neighbor and making assumptions that benefit only you.

This is why the dog and I both do a good squeeze before a walk, so I don't get mentally frozen somewhere worried about poop etiquette in a compromising situation. For either of us.

No man, you should bag BOTH your #2s and put them in w those ppl who think it's perfectly fine to do it to others, I'm sure they won't have a prb at all.

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around, does it make a sound?

That's the entire argument. No one knows it was in their trash can.

I was talking about the property line because you implied I was trespassing. It's technically trespassing if you allow your dog on someone elses property isn't it? So if you had a dog and were allowing him to defecate on your neighbors grass that would be wrong?

Are you just being intentionally obtuse? This wasn't even my argument, you act as though the 'magical govt ppl' will take care of everything, well, they won't. Your dog's crap will be in someone else's trashbin and it may potentially cause a mess, but even ignoring that, you're still invading the guy's space. Heck, I'll also give you that the trashbin may not even technically belong to your neighbor and remains the property of the govt, but who do you think will need to clean it if your bag leaks/causes a stench?

Why don't you talk to your gf about it? She seems to have more sense and care about how one's actions could affect others. I appreciate you starting this thread because it shows that you at least think there may be a prb here and you're asking for other ppl's opinions. However, you seem to be steadfast in your belief and only refrain so as to not cause a fuss, not because you think it's an ill-mannered act.

Our trash is also picked up by a truck and I can assure you sometimes not everything is emptied from the trash can, and no, it isn’t limited to what’s on the bottom of the can either. Stuff on top moves when the arm picks up the trash can. Also unless you have some high end dog shit bags, they can break pretty easily.

Wait, what? It has nothing to do with if they know or not.

ITS.NOT.YOUR.TRASH.CAN

LEAVE.IT.ALONE

It doesnt matter if its at the road or not, IT IS NOT A PUBLIC USE TRASH CAN. It's not. Plain and simple. Regardless of what is stamped on the side of it, or who technically owns it, it's NOT THERE FOR PUBLIC USE.

It's not causing a mess. I throw the poop bags in my own trash 6 days a week and it's never caused a mess because I seal them.

The only time I've ever seen an issue with my own trash as far as the trash company not picking everything up is if it's overloaded and I wouldn't throw poop bags in overloaded trash bags because of that.

I'm exiting this thread at this point. I'm not trying to start an argument and everyone is going back and forth. Like I said, I'm not trying to be a bad neighbor so I'm not doing it again but I disagree it's an issue to begin with.

In our neck of the woods, garbage pickup is a paid service (from three competing carting companies) that each home subscribes to and pays for if they want that luxury. Many people are too cheap to spend the ~$35/month for garbage service, so they find someone else's can and dump into it instead of driving to the county landfill and paying ~$4.00/bag to dump it there. These people are worse than festering dog poop, especially when the can that I'm paying for is not available because it's full of someone else's garbage.....

Exactly. That "if a tree falls" example is ridiculous, that means he knows he must do it on the sly as there's something wrong.

If they were so righteous, they should act like it's a public trash can, wait till the neighbor comes out and only then open that guy's trash can and throw the dog poop in, see what happens...but they don't dare do that cuz deep down they know it's wrong and are only doing it because they are selfish.

Again, only thinking of yourself. Why don't you ask the neighbor before making all these assumptions? If s/he says "no", will you still do it?

You can't abandon your own thread! LOL. (Well, ofc you can but it's funny.) I'm not arguing w you, just trying to reason w you.

Well, at least you won't do it again but unfortunately you're not convinced as to the reasons why you shouldn't.
