The thing I’m finding really annoying lately, besides other peoples dogs shitting in my yard, is on garbage day. Our neighbourhood in West Fernie puts their garbage out in Wednsday, and like clockwork, this ugly, shaggy ,off white, lab"ish",looking dog goes around knocking garbage cans over and ripping into the bags. Spreading garbage all over the place, and sometimes just grabbing a bag and running off with it. But. Now he’s even on the prowl before garbage day, knocking over garbage cans and stealing the contents. I’m a dog owner, and I know where my dogs are at every second of their lives. When I don’t know where they are I’m out looking for them, but not knowing where they are is the exception , not the rule (ie.high snow years) it does get to be a bit much when I go to throw the ball for my dogs in my back yard and I’m stepping in other peoples dogs shit. So now I’ve bought one of them soft air guns, and it’s working wonders, dogs are really fast learners, and it doesn’t take them long to learn it really hurts getting shot in the ass with one while bent over trying to do your business in someone elses yard. Maybe instead of sending mom and pop weed growers to jail, we should be sending irresponsible dog owners to jail! Manditory minimums for them! Oh and since we’re ranting, if my BBQ gets pissed on one more time, I might black out, and go mental.
