Remember when everyone got upset about bags full of dog poop?

I once read 125 comments on Next Door by people who were beyond incensed that a dog walker had put a bag of dog poop in a neighbor's garbage can.

Then one of our photographers found bags of dog poop hanging on a fence in Hamlin Park.

Reader Andrew Smith took this photo Friday morning, beside one of the trails in Hamlin park.

"Toilet paper strewn everywhere. Less than 100 feet back from 15th Ave NE and NE 165th st." 

At least the dog owners bag theirs.

Watch where you step.

  1. PEOPLE WERE UPSET BECAUSE THEY WERE LEAVING THE BAGS ALONG THE ROAD FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO PICK UP AND PUT IN A CAN. HOW HARD COULD IT BE TO DO IT THEMSELVES. IT GOT ALOT OF ATTENTION BECAUSE IT WAS SUCH A RIDICLOUS THING.

  2. Nope. The post that prompted the 125 comments was a rant about someone putting their bag of poop in a garbage bin. Now the fence in Hamlin park is a different story.

  3. The incident at hamlin park was done by a serial homeless pooper who has no place to throw it away but at least picked it up so no one steps in it.

  4. There are two sets of open restrooms in the park, so there is no excuse for this. And as the reporter said, there was used toilet paper all around.
