My dog, Mabel, has done me proud.
Every morning I take her for a walk to do her business (we live in an apartment).
For the past week and a half she has done a big pile of steaming dog turd on the Anglican Church lawn.
My moral dilemma was if I pick it up and put in my doggy do do bag.
If you want to know, yes I did. I couldn't have an innocent old lady stepping in it on Sunday morning.

I laud you for cleaning up after your pooch. I live in town with beautiful "greenways" which are perfect for biking, roller-blading, jogging. I also live in town where owning a dog seems like a city ordinance. Nothing ticks me off like being forced to ride through a steaming pile, and having shit come splattering up on your back.
So kudos, Gezzam. And for y'all who don't: it's your dog, it's your shit, pick it up.

That was just bad, @tomic. I should delete that post as my first moderator action.

Someone had to do it. I was first there and I did it so I take full responsibility for it. I have n regrets. I'd do it again, too.

Give a guy a message board and he thinks he's Don Rickles.

Yes, I do too. Congraduate you for picking it up....and we pick up from our dog also.
We have laws here, that one is supposed to but of course there are always those shitheads who don't.
Gezzam you and your dog may be atheists but you've showen that you are a bigger man than the church is for doing the right thing without the threat of going to hell.

Didn't you know? You go to hell if you don't clean up after your dog, too.

I think my dog's a fundamentalist christian. He ain't too bright. He barks at invisible creatures. And no matter how ludicrous a line of B.S. I feed him, he just stands there in rapt attention wagging his tail.

LOL.
You want, my dog should come over and talk, ah.....I mean bark some sense into your dog?
Woody just walks away if he doesn't like what I say to him, he has a mind of his own.

Our dog is the size of a shoe and she has the bad habit of stealing big dogs tennis balls and pissing off with them. Quite amusing.
The big dogs don't really quite know what to do about this, whether to attack this ball of fur or to just take it and play with the little bugger.

That's funny because Woody doesn't like little dogs either. All 25 pounds of him likes to play with really big dogs too. LOL, you should see him trying to, how can I say this politely......hump them. I'm talking, St. Bernards and Woody hanging on the back side of their hind leg.
Woody probably wouldn't know what to make of your little one either. Oh well, she sounds cute. I never liked little dogs until we got Woody. I still think anything smaller then a Cocker is strange (for a dog) but I respect your right to have one.

Same here, we only got Mabel (named after Fiona's Nanna) because we live in an apartment. I had a kelpie x dingo before her....
But we love her and our place wouldn't be the same without her. She's four months old now and already rules the apartment...

I think it's an honor to have a dog named after you. Many years ago I named my sisters dog Christorphor after an actor I have a mad crush on, Christorphor Lee.
Don't know what a kelpie is but aren't dingos dangerous? I heard they eat little children.

LOL, I know how that is.
Why don't you post a photo of her?
Some people on the Cocker list I'm on say we should control the dog and let them know who's the leader, I don't care about that. We give Woody what ever he wants, and if we can't I explain to him why not. We are equals and can talk things over.
