..... when i confronted him his excused was ' i havent got any bags so what do you want me to do?'. 30 seconds and an adsa bag later he cleaned it up and was on his way feeling a bit sheepish no doubt.

Although not outside my house, I watched another dog poo while I was out with ours. I'm sure the other owner saw it but did nothing towards picking it up. I calmly offered to give him one of my poo bags at which point he then said he'd not seen his dog poo-ing  ..... he cleared it up with his own bag.
Clearing up after a dog isn't the most pleasant thing to have to do, but you know what's involved before you get a dog.

Suddenly owning a cat seems like much less trouble ;)

They always poo in someone else's flower beds, normally just after they've put down the compost ready for planting... ;)

Exactly!  ;D Although there is one around my way (at least I think it's a cat.. could be a fox) that habitually craps in the middle of my gravel path..

Kennel cough!?!.....poor little-mite. :'(

Once one`s heard that distinctive hacking-cough and seen them in such distress; one wouldn`t ever wish to see or hear it again. :(

As for poop-picking: I simply use the £1 shop poo-bags, pick-up using one bag and and dropping it all in another bag held with t`other hand).....and if there`s no handy bin for the poop-in-bags, I hang `em on the car`s tow-ball until I get home.....if you drive fast enough; you keep ahead of the whiff! ;D

if i had a dog [and i dont] i wouldnt clear it up why should i ?
sure i wouldnt let it do it in a kids playground/pavement and yes i know i could be fined for it but part of my council tax goes to pay for the upkeep of these places so if im already paying for the service why should i do the job myself? would i get a refund on my tax? i dont think so somehow.

If you had a dog, please explain how you would take it to the nearest field without walking on a pavement?
Do you already live in the country side :-?

This is the same attitude lazy B***ards use for litter which is almost as bad as dog poo bags hanging from trees. People should be responsible for the mess they or their pets make in public places. >:(

I use the cheap tesco Value Nappy Sacks, about 9p for 100 last time I bought them...  The labrador very often backs into the very long grass and nettles and stuff, so that does tend to get left (just through pure inability to retrieve it), the little terrier's get picked up most of the time (only left when we don't realise she has been or when she is loose)...
