I wish I had that problem... around here they just let their dogs sh!t on people's front lawns and keep walking, so we have the "pleasure" of having to pick it up and put it in our bins ourselves... grrr!

I'm  so sad - I only want my own rubbish in my bins. I realised I was 'bin selfish' when my neighbours started just putting their manky rubbish in my part full bin to save them  dragging their own out. Once it was prawn shells and heads in my empty bin in summer as they'd missed the garbage truck with theirs. Another time it was loose food waste and other non-recyclable rubbish in my recycling bin - that's what tipped me over the edge. So I doubt I'd be ok about someone else's poo, especially if my bin was just emptied.

The problem with putting bags of poo into newly emptied bins is that any subsequent rubbish tends to squash those bags, they split and the bin ends up with dog poo smeared all over the bin bottom.  The smell in summer is horrendous. And the flies!
