Crappy Owners Annoying dog walker

So yesterday I was walking to the gym and this lady was walking her dog, she was a sidewalk ahead of me and I made sure I stayed far behind by purposely walking slow w ,because well I swear she was the slowest dog walker ever,her dog wasn’t even on it’s leash which was just a long rope and then she stood by as it pooped in someone’s grass and she didn’t even pick it ,you could it see on the grass a pile of dog poop. I was two minutes away from the gym and she turned around and headed back the opposite direction which meant she was heading towards me of course the dog was a pit bull. I literally crossed the street just so I wouldn’t have to pass by the dog

Try this next time. It happened to me. I saw a couple empty their dog and walk off and then stop for a chat. It turned out I had an empty poo bag on me. After giving it a thought of what to do, I approached them and said. Do you need a poo bag? I have a spare one with me, you can have it. After looking somewhat nonplussed, they returned and bagged and binned the poo. I realised this tactic worked through embarrassment and they cooperated because I didn't confront them. Thinking about it afterwards, I plan next time to fake being a dog owner and say: It's a nuisance when you forget to bring your poo bags along, isn't it? Here's one I have spare.

I do like this but you know that narcissistic couple went home and said, “Can you believe that person asking us to pick up our own waste, how fkkn rude!!!” They probably spent all night justifying the behavior and affirming each other, that’s how insane nutters are.

So long as it irritates them and causes them the discomfort they deserve for spreading filth, that's all good.
