I love dogs and one day, when I spend less time in London and/or we retire I hope to have one of my own.
However. I hate dog owners (probably a paid dog walker who doesn’t care less) who do not pick up after their dogs in Hyde Park. I wonder if a loving dog owner would like to drop down and give me 5 (press-ups) and find their hand in their darling pooches business? And then be unlucky enough on the same morning to get a knee full?
Enough said. I got unlucky while doing too many burpees this morning! Fortunately there were lots of puddles to wash hands and knees in and wet grass to roll/wipe my knees on. I was also sensible not to touch my face for the rest of the class, and even after a hand wipe not to touch any food until I’d scrubbed and soaked in the bath!
So please think when you are out walking a dog. It might be you, or even your children, sitting in, rolling in or getting a handful of poo if you don’t pick it up.
Rant over.

So with you on this rant, I can also smell it from here-the poo that is!

I think I’m the only person in the world who’s not bothered about dog poo.

ugh! I totally agree.. I always pick up after my dog, and get so annoyed when I step in the mess left by those selfish idiots

Gross, I can’t believe other dog owner who don’t pick up the poo especially when it’s in the middle of the path! Yet I am out there with a torch clearing up after my two dogs.

Im fairly sure my dog looks over his shoulder when he’s done and I think I once heard him say “you can pick that up for me.“ I dont undetstand people that haven’t worked out how to consider others and the world around them. Luckily they are a minority, just a shame they have a.disproportionately large effect on us. Now, more running!
