This is so gross and the garbage is right there. I don’t understand people that do this at all. Terrible neighbors.

This is gross but I think the more likely explanation for this pic is that that refuse container was probably overflowing with the dog poop bags on top and when it was emptied the bags just fell off on the ground and wasn't picked up by the collectors.

That’s probably what happened. The collectors for my neighborhood leave things behind a lot. Sigh

Garbage was probably overfilled and people rested the dog shit on top of the overflowing trash rather than find an appropriate place for it.

If this is what happened, is there a reason the collectors can’t pick it? Their job is literally collecting trash.

I mean, granted this is in the burbs but whenever I walk my fams dog we toss the bags in a planter next to the garbage cans and when the last bag goes out prior to collection we toss them in and tie it up. I feel like if I were a garbage man I don’t feel like grabbing other people shit. It’s not a tall ask for owners to find a better place to toss.

what i started doing was keeping a mini-can next to our regular one for poop bag collection - then same as you, toss it in the bigger bag come collection day.
