An Australian’s experience in the U.K.
This guy has a dramatic solution for the shitty shoe situation.
In Australia we teach our dogs not to crap where they shouldn’t by rubbing their noses in it. Obviously they dislike this, but fortunately for us all they learn a valuable lesson. And after what happened to me the other day, I am thinking of applying the same rule over here, with just a slight twist. I think the next time I see a dog crapping on my footpath, I am going to grab the owner and rub his nose in it.

Why Anti-Social? One of my neighbours.
I watched one of my neighbours let his dog out. He crosses the road to the grass area, walks 10 metres back and forth on the pavement waiting until his dog does its business, on the grass next to the pavement, the crosses back to his house.
I ask him why he didn’t clean it up, he ignores me. I repeat the question. He looks a tad angry and tells me I should pay more attention to the media as the legislation has been repealed, it’s no longer compulsory to clean up. (Should this make a difference?) At which I point out that we should inform Holland’s largest newspaper as they had, only
two days earlier, done a large article on the fact that people, dog-owners, ignore the current legislation.
As he’s new to the street I pointed out that he’s a welcome addition to he neighbourhood. (Tinge with irony.)
I realized that his “attack” was meant to confuse my, tell me an untruth and I’ll have doubts.
Anyway to help him I print out the relevant rules and the current fines and pop the sheets through his letter box. That’s what neighbours are for.
Do you have anti-social neighbours? Tell us about them.
