It's All Around us...

It's all around us; it's everywhere; it pervades and insinuates into our very being. What is it? Is it love? Is it humanity? Is it art? Is it poetry? Is it Family?

No - it is dogshit.

(Apologies now to responsible dog owners who do clean up properly.)

Dogshit is ubiquitous and all-surrounding. It is in the parks; on the paths; on the nature reserves; on the roads; in other peoples gardens and on their shoes.  You walk down into town and step through a mountain of dogshit.

Across from me is a playing field. Every morning and evening, up to thirty people take their dogs on the field and let them shit - WHERE THEIR CHILDREN PLAY. They are quite blatant with it and seemingly don't give a toss. People roll up in cars; let three dogs out that shit on the grass and get back in the car - that's your problem, now, not mine and off they drive back to the shit-free zone they inhabit.

What is done about it? I'll tell you - fuck all. I know we live in Mexborough and that DOncaster Council have forgotten about us and that all the dog wardens are in Wheatley Hills, making it a dogshit free zone for the Councillor's kids, while we have to walk in squalor.

Some people do pick their dogshit up in plastic bags and then, in a place like Adwick RSPB - throw it into the bushes, where it hangs, in winter,  like the Devil's wassail cups. You'd be better off leaving it on the path you morons.

You can't blame the dogs. Dogs don't give a fuck where they do it, it is their nature; it is the owners who are at fault.

All dogs should be chipped and a dog license should be £200 per year. This would rule out the morons responsible for the 150 staffies a day that are put down because the morons can't look after them. It would make the real dog-lovers at a premium and rule out the idiots who don't know how to look after and monitor their dogs.

As you can probably tell: I have just walked in off the field with dogshit all over my shoes. Thank you morons.
