north Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 I read today about the new Poster campaign created by the SIC Environmental Heath organization, to tackle the serious issue of human controlled, canine mine laying operations, performed under the cover of darkness. The obvious drawback to a poster is that;a. Dogs can't read anytimeb. Humans can't read in the dark I think it is time for a much more contemporaneous, less passive, maybe multi-media approach to tackle this serious issue, in order to catch the attention of the offending minority, all of whom I am sure don't read Shetlink. Some of my thoughts... Blasting out Springsteen's, "Dumping in the dark" whilst illuminating the offenders in action, with huge spotlights. Rubbing the owners nose in their own dog shyt (apparently works for dogs), which I am sure would be equally effective for humans. Using Infra-red video cameras to record the action, and posting it here on Shetlink. What other ideas could we suggest? http://www.shetnews.co.uk/news/newsbites/2888-dogs-fouling-in-the-dark.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shetlandpeat Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 what about the pink ring (spray) The maximum fine here is £1000, but, the law only covers 30 and 40 mph roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Fear not, the saviour of the dog sheeite harrassed is close at hand. Soon, perhaps already the fishing industry tie up for the duration of the piss up season and the toon's bloody maas have to go hungry for at least two week's due to the total lack of thrown aboot fish guts.... After about a week of living off everybody's rancid turkey leftovers stolen from rivven black bags, desperation (or it is insanity) will overcome them en masse, and they will ravenously gobble up every dollop of dog turd they can locate with manical relish. Of course, such a diet will almost certainly kill the maa that eats it very quickly, so there's that bonus.....Maa crangs lyin aawye could be worse than dog turds lyin aawye tho, but dats just nitpickin. Yup, keep platchin aboout skeetin on the pink pent too, makes it much easier for the demented maas to locate their dinner turd.... Is the thoosan pound fine for 30 & 40 mph roads turds because desplatterated turd flying of car wheels at that speed is most dangeorous to passer's by?

unlinkedstudent Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 I read today about the new Poster campaign created by the SIC Environmental Heath organization, to tackle the serious issue of human controlled, canine mine laying operations, performed under the cover of darkness. {'f' it was funny in Father Ted 'eck'} no, don't tell me now that mutts have 'weapons of mass destruction'. Can we expect a suitably well trained anti-terrorist squad to descend on our footpaths (probably funded by the Princess Diana legacy organisation) or will the SIC resort to employing architects to design a politically correct, weatherproof dog crap house every 20ft?

paulb Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Those hounds must have a bad case of the runs to be doing 30-40mph. that poop would be well splattered when it stopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unlinkedstudent Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Is there any truth in the rumour that SIC have bought these? http://i460.photobucket.com/albums/qq330/Redneck_Hillbilly0504/dogpavement.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 ^^ Nah, they've been hit badly by the spending cuts, they can't afford any more sign boards, so they've hired the thingy that made these off Edinburgh Council, and changed the text from Edinburgh to "LerICK". so for once the name is being spelled right. http://i460.photobucket.com/albums/qq330/Redneck_Hillbilly0504/224911_10150158147726728_611996727_6764085_2676943_n.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the mutts can do that speed, I will stick a nifty on the nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMouth Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 what about the pink ring (spray) The maximum fine here is £1000, but, the law only covers 30 and 40 mph roads. Has anyone other than a Sandvein alsation been prosecuted for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
