vivienne Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I do not live in the Marmora catchment area but did have the same problem about two years ago. Someone repeatedly allowing their dog to foul practically outside the gate, Myself, my children, husband, bikes were all victims. I eventually rang the council who told me that there was a dedicated pooper scooper number which I rang everytime the poo arrived. They dutifully came and scooped ....the problem miraculously disappeared after a concentrated three week campaign. Ring the council and ask if this service still exists. I fortunately have not had the problem since. But then I live in Nunhead!

Brendan Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I live on a path the leads a few yards off the main road to my gate. Last summer there was a guy who would walk his dog down off the main road onto my path almost every morning to let it relieve itself. He probably thought this was better than letting it foul the main pavement but as it was outside my garden gate I was not too pleased. So what I did was just go out one morning and stand at the gate. As he came down I gave him a smile and a nod and stood watching him. He looked uncomfortable for few moments and then buggered off. I haven?t seen him since. Having said that I went out this morning and there was an unspeakable pile heap next to the bins. I may give this poo hotline that the council have a call.

Marmora Man Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 Possible / probable offender - male - 30's, black hair with black Labrador. Spotted (not by me) allowing dog to foul on corner of Therapia & Scutari. Anyone have anymore clues? Once identified I can ask him to "do the right thing".
