Man Tired Of Neighbor Not Picking Up After Her Dog, Uses Sprinklers For Revenge And Witnesses Her Reaction

59

ADVERTISEMENT

One of the many responsibilities of a dog owner is to pick up after their pet. It’s a common courtesy that every fur parent knows and is expected to practice. 

A woman, however, thought she was above this unwritten rule. None of her neighbors’ outright callouts and signs around the block deterred her from acting entitled. Worse, she was letting her dog do its business on another person’s property. 

The homeowner, whose yard had been the dog’s personal toilet, had no choice but to teach the woman a lesson through a hilarious and well-thought-out petty revenge plot.

    Unattended dog litter can cause more harm than you may think

    Especially if you’re on a hike or walking down the street, it’s easy to overlook any dog litter you may encounter along the way. Many may dismiss it as mere compost that is biodegradable and part of nature. 

    The thing is, dog stool is a potential health hazard because of the presence of microorganisms that may cause disease in humans. In fact, a gram of dog waste can contain up to 23 million bacteria that can also attract pests like rats. 

    Among the list of harmful bacteria are Salmonella, E. coli, and Giardia, which can cause delayed mental and physical growth among young children. 

    A dog infected with intestinal parasites can also cause problems. According to the Associated Veterinary Medical Center (AVMC), roundworms, whipworms, and hookworms can be transmitted to other pets and even humans. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    AVMC also clarifies that dog waste is not fertilizer because it contains more nitrogen than the soil needs. A 2022 study confirms this, revealing that dog feces contain an extra 11 kilograms of nitrogen, something the researchers consider a “substantial” amount. 

    So, how do you deal with an irresponsible dog owner? The American Kennel Club advises approaching the situation with sympathy and empathy. It could be that the woman in the story had a lot going on in her life, but her haughty attitude and saying “What are you going to do about it?” after being called out doesn’t help her case, either. 

    It was only a matter of time before someone set her straight, and she was lucky to have only dealt with wet clothes smeared with droppings from her own dog, which she had failed to train properly. 

    People in the comments lauded the man for how he handled the situation

    I DESPISE people who don't pick up after their dogs. Especially those who don't pick up in their own neighborhoods. Where I live, one block over, is a half-block wide divider things that has trees and grass. It's basically a half block wide, full block long park that separates the thoroughfare running that war from the neighborhood. No houses, just grass, plants, and trees. I bring this up because while some owners are considerate enough to have their dogs poop in the neighborhood and then not pick it up, they'll go to this park block and gave them poop their and not pick up. The thing is that park black still has sidwalks that people use. So while the poop isn't left in front of someone's house, it's still left where people and other dogs walk.

    I remember once I was walking my ex’s dog and her poop bags were in a plastic, latched to her leash container, and she went and I ended up using the last bag without realizing it was the last bag. Then on the way back, she went again. And I felt bloody terrible. Took her home, grabbed a new bag and walked my a*s back out to find it. Yeah, it drives me insane too.
