LOL @ mushy shats and Paco's mini poops!
Thanks for the info. I guessed the fat bish was just being lazy. Luckily, I don't have to see the shit everyday, only when I go to the mailbox. I can't believe someone hasn't said anything to the association yet.

During the summer I pickup poops right away as I have 2 big kritters and the poops are huge. During the winter I let them poop in the yard then let it freeze typically a day and then pickup because then it doesn't make my garage smell like a sewer.
Frozen poo = non smelly poo.

Ha our cane corso/fila just turned 1 year old and at over 130 pounds I just grab a shovel and a 5 gallon pale with a garbage bag in it and go to town. Sucks after a full winter and haven't picked any up, I know what I'll be doing Sunday haha
We have a big yard and little dogs, they break down quickly if they are being fed good food so we just let them go. If we had a big dog then it would be a different story.

I let t go for a while and pick up when I can. In the winter when it's constantly snowing snowing snowing it all gets lost but now as it is thawing and re-freezing, this is the time to get out there and start picking away at the snow with a shovel and cleaning it up. If you wait too long it gets uber gross, probably like you at seeing.
On the flip side I never have time to do it so I'm sure I'm behind...it's all fine and good to stay on top of it when you can be home while the sun is still up but I'm often leaving home at 7am and not home until 7 or 8. But no real excuse there, that's what the weekends are for. Make time for it, just like anything else in life! Gotta take advantages of the windows of time you have instead of watching them pass by. There's a bigger moral to the story at play here :)
Ps--I say one-up them with your own bombs. Do it!

I totally get it that sometimes work/life can get crazy and you can't get to scoopin the poopin for a couple days or a week... but this person's yard looked like they haven't picked up one brown bomb in months.
I called the association manager, and he said he will talk to the homeowner about it. He also said "That's nasty" and almost sounded like Cleveland.

We usually wait until Spring to pick up the poo. Especially with this winter being so harsh. Our yard might rival your neighbors since we have three dogs. I think the scooping will be on this weekends agenda. I can deliver over to your house if you want it. LOL

I let it get pretty wild in my yard this year, it's been a pretty harse winter. Little yard + 2 big dogs = poo city. As soon as it started warming up and snow melted/ uncovered my lack of keeping up with it I knew I had to kick it into high gear. Now I've been tackling whatever shows up every other day.

Lazy dog owner here.
I'll sometimes pick up the yard after the snow melts but I've never went out and done it during the winter.
I also don't pick them up in the summer, figure it's good for the grass and nobody really goes in the yard other than the dogs.
