The Crimean Quadrant (Marmora, Therapia, Scutari & Mundania) is currently plagued by a dog walker & dog that do not observe the accepted courtesies of owning a dog - leaving piles of dog c*** along the pavements of all four roads.


This has all occurred in the last three months - so believe it is someone that has moved in recently, not a long term resident of the area.


I've watched and lurked and eyeballed at different times of day and night but still failed to identify the recalcitrant owner or dog. Others are also on the lookout. The council is aware of the problem but extra signs and "bag it & bin it" pavement stencils have had no effect - what else can be done?

Marmora Man, I used to live on Marmora road too (moved out in '06). There was a guy in his fifties/sixties with a Jack Russell (always yapping) and he used to let it crap everywhere, I know this as I have a dog and used to see him do it all the time when out walking with mine. He never took it to the park, just used to walk it locally, probably why the surrounding streets are full of his poo. Not saying that it's him but it's a possibility - you probably know exactly who this character is anyway!

yes we too have some lovely piles on our doorstep....from the size of it I don't think it can be a jack russell-but whatever it is it eats sweetcorn-ugh!

We had a similar problem on our neighbourhood pavements. After many frustrating attempts at trying to apprehend the nasty owner and canine partner in crime, someone suggested going to poochy-poop-match.com. You simply take a picture of the fresh steaming dog turd, type in the characteristics (weight, shape and colour) and it gives you 3 possible breed matches including size and age. We were able to find the perpetrator within 24 hours and rub his nose in it. poochy-poop-match.com

I'll do some wandering around that time too - see what I can see.

I have a dog and I get quite incensed when I see dog waste everywhere - please note this small irresponsible minority who let their dogs cr*p everywhere would hit the roof if they stepped in someone elses...


Anyway, this may sound bizarre but what the hell, get some chalk and the next time you see it, chalk around the offending turds and write, CLEAN THIS UP! on the pavement. It may be just enough to shock and embarrass the person...


Admittedly people might think you're a bit odd but something needs to be done!

    • Every year they ask for more and every year it is an exhausting process pushing back on that for local residents and councillors. What annoys me is that at the post event consultation/ feedback this year, I specifically asked them if the rumours around applying for two weekends next year were true. They told me no. So that was a lie. Anyway, we go again.

    • Rant ahead: You're not one of them but unfortunately, there's a substrate of posters here that do very little except moan and come up with weird conspiracy theories. They're immediately highly critical of just about any change, and their initial assumption is that everyone else is a total fucking contemptible idiot. For example: don't you think that the people who run the libraries will have considered the impact of timing of reconstruction on library users? (In fact, we know they have - because they've made arrangements at other libraries to attempt to mitigate the disruption). After all, these are the people that spend their whole working week thinking about libraries and dealing with library users (and the kids especially). You don't go into the library game for the chicks and fame - so it's fair to assume that librarians are committed to public service and public access to libraries, including by kids. Likewise the built environment people (engineers, architects, construction managers, project managers, construction contractors, subcontractors or whoever is on this job) are told to minimise disruption on every job they do. The thing that occurs to us as amateurs within 30 seconds of us seeing something is probably not something a full time professional hasn't thought about! Southwark Council, the NHS, TfL, Dulwich Estate, Thames Water, Openreach - they're not SPECTRE factories filled with malevolent chaosmongers trying to persecute anyone. They're mostly filled with people who understand their job and try to do their best with what they've been given - just like all of us. Nobody is perfect or immune from challenge, and that's fair enough, but why not at least start from the assumption that there's a good reason why things have been done the way they have? Any normal person would be pleased that their busy, pretty, lively local library is getting refurbished, and will have more space and facilities for kids and teens, and will be more efficient to run and warmer in winter. But no, EDT_Forumite_752 had kids who did an exam 20 years ago, and this makes them an expert on library refurbishment who can see it's all just stuff and nonsense for the green agenda and why can't it all be put off... 😡😡😡
    • I completely misread the previous post, sorry. For some reason I thought the mini cooper was also a police vehicle, DUH.
