Is it rude? Honest opinions!

I am a fairly new dog owner and often walk him in the early morning, before the garbage pickup takes place. He often poops on his walks, which I of course pick up with my baggie and tie it up. Is it rude for me to put the tied poop bag into someone's garbage can so that I don't have to carry it with me the rest of the walk? Again, the garbage pickup has NOT happened yet, so it will get dumped with the pickup that morning. I would never throw the bag into an empty can, stinking it up until the next pickup! I never thought twice about this until this morning. I did this today, and someone across the street saw me do this, gave me a nasty look, and said "that's not your garbage can". Honest opinions!

I would've said "and it's not yours either".

I've done what you do and never thought about it. If the garbage wasn't picked up yet, can't imagine why someone would have an issue with it. I wouldn't care if someone tossed it in my trash. Better then them leaving it in the street.

I think before pick up is fine as long as it is bagged up, after it is rude and yuck.

I don't know if it's rude but I wouldn't do it. Especially since it's dog poop. I carry my poop and put it in my own garbage.

Where I live every one's garbage can is a free for all when it comes to throwing away dog droppings. I don't mind, at least they are picking it up and I'm not stepping on a bomb in the dark when I'm walking outside.

I don't have a dog. But if I saw someone put their dog poop even in a bag tied up in my garbage can I wouldn't be pleased.

Re: Is it rude? Honest opinions!

I'm a dog owner. I always carry it home with me if I don't pass a public can on my way home. Even if I knew the trash is going to be emptied, I wouldn't touch someone else's garbage can.

Honestly, no way. When I had my doggie I would just hold the bag and throw it in my can.

I wouldn't do it (I would feel weird), but I wouldn't say its rude. It's not like you're leaving it on the ground!

I see no issue with it.

But, this is Long Island. You know someone will be offended god forbid you sneeze at the end of their driveway.

I also am a dog owner but he uses our yard and DH cleans up after him. He's also old and blind and I'm sure someone thinks this is gross too.

I always want to but I just end up carrying it the whole walk. I usually have 3 bags by the time I get home lol, I think my dog purposely poops in three installments to piss me off.

I'm not a dog owner and it would not bother me if someone did this. Better than the person leaving it on my lawn!

Re: Is it rude? Honest opinions!

On 2 occasions i have gotten yelled at by a homeowner for doing this(at 9pm the night before garbage day...). The reason why i do it is because my dog poos in the first 5 minutes of my run and it is not cool to hold it for another hour until i get home.
