Lordy, that's annoying - almost as annoying as the steaming heap of dog mess that has been deposited by my front gate. I know it's not the animal's fault, it's the owner's; but that makes two piles of poo from dogs today!
Ah yes, very annoying. I can understand your frustration (and how disgusting about the poo!). Can you send them somewhere else? (she said, stating the obvious...!)
ReplyDeleteA follow-up email told me they had spent the weekend making difficult decisions, which I fears bodes ill for anyone who already has stories on the website. But yes, I can do something else with mine.
DeleteDog poo on pavements is bad enough, but even worse when it's on your doorstep. Hope you can publish elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteThis is a big pet hate of mine - people not clearing up after their dogs! It's just rude and horrible.
ReplyDeleteHope you can find somewhere else for the stories xx
Hope you find another home for your stories, Julia - very annoying to get your hopes up like that. What a disgusting thing to leave at your gate.
ReplyDeleteThe poo has gone! Either someone has seen my angry rant here or on FB and thought better of it or the council pavement sweeper has been along.
ReplyDeleteAs a dog owner, I think it's inexcusable not to clean up after your pet. Glad it's sorted now.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Wendy.
