No one enjoys clearing up the dog mess of someone else’s pet, especially when left outside their house.
For Andrea Whiteside, it had become a recurring problem she wasn’t prepared to deal with anymore.
Frustrated over dog mess
For several days, Andrea had to clean up the dog mess left outside her house by her neighbour’s dog. To say Andrea was fed up would be an understatement. After seeing her neighbour just let their dog go to the toilet outside Andrea’s house, Andrea confronted them about it and told the dog owner that they must pick up their dog’s droppings when out for a walk. Unfortunately, the neighbour took no notice of Andrea’s pleas.
So, Andrea decided to take drastic action. After picking up her neighbour’s dog’s mess again, Andrea stayed outside her house, waiting for her neighbour to go past. What happened next was caught on Andrea’s doorbell camera.
Drastic action
As the neighbour walks by her house, Andrea hands them a bag full of her dog’s droppings, saying, “Here, love, this belongs to you”. The neighbour simply takes the bag from Andrea and walks on by.
While we don’t know if this has finally stopped her neighbour from letting their dog mess outside her house, Andrea has received a lot of praise on TikTok for taking action.
