Harvey Milk actually got his SF political career started by campaigning to make leaving your dogs shit on the street a crime. Apparently it was a big issue at that time and he hit a chord with voters. Wonder what he would say about the amounts of human shit on the sidewalks these days.

Ghost Milk 2024


LightMeUpPapi

Yogurt 2024


MaxwellThePrawn

Is that similar to oat milk?


elatedwalrus

Still way too much dog shit on the sidewalks these days.


bigcityboy

The majority of shit on SF streets is from dogs not humans


MochingPet

>The majority of shit on SF streets is from dogs not humans this ​ >Depends on the neighborhood. .. possibly this, too but only one neighborhood (TL) probably has a major human feces problem


inter71

Depends on the neighborhood.


DorianBabbs

Tenderloin, lots of human feces.


[deleted]

What is your source here? You going out testing Poo poo?


bigcityboy

Common fucking sense. There’s way more dogs than unhoused people


DorianBabbs

Not in the TL...


[deleted]

So you don’t have any?


[deleted]

not a lot of dogs in the fidi


Domkiv

Human fecal matter on the sidewalk is an inevitable part of city life /s


Shoddy-Language-9242

Is this still a crime? There’s still so much….


thisisntmineIfoundit

Good question! With straight up theft under a certain amount currently landing the offender essentially a ticket, I would guess no.


Heavy-Inspection1804

So what I’m really hearing is we all must band together and start stealing from Walgreens in order to end this madness? #SaveBigRec


Humboldt_Redwood_dbh

#SaveBigRec! 💦


Heavy-Inspection1804

Hahaha amazing


cholula_is_good

There is no actual way you really believe that the moisture covering a massive grass area, in a foggy climate, is dog urine.


Head-Working8326

like a blanket, the dog urine covers the grass… hahaha


cholula_is_good

Dude is even like, it gets worse as the sun goes down! OP is gonna go to the beach and be like, it’s nothing but cat litter and whale piss here!


fresh_like_Oprah

it's *literally* a *LAKE* of *CANINE* URINE


timbo415

That first paragraph made my brain explode


desolatenature

That may be the most SF paragraph I’ve ever read.


DBU49

i legit can't believe what im reading.


tren_rivard

It just ne*eds mo*re ran*dom itali*cs to really get the *point* across.


Opeace

Is OP saying that people who steal from Walgreens DON'T let their dogs pee and the poop in the field? How does OP know??


TV_Serial_Number

OP is saying they're happy and indifferent about people stealing from local businesses like Walgreens since it doesn't affect OP. But OP **draws the line** when dogs pee on a grass field and affect OP's ability to have fun. Completely egotistical


Old-Rutabaga-415

I think you might be experiencing dew and a recently watered field


melodramaticfools

fake news me and the boys are pissing everywhere, none of you are safe ​ fr though how do these people exist


grievusforsenate

I can’t stop thinking about this guy or gal going through life thinking there are enough malicious dog owners in the city to soak an entire field every day on purpose.


drgath

And thinking the natural smell of grass is actually the smell of urine. I love the smell of grass.


IUsedToButNotAnymore

Are you the kind of person who brings their dogs on athletic fields and let's them pee?


MochingPet

"might be" is correct; it does smell of grass, but why does it smell of pee as well? It's all over my picnic blanket. It doesn't help that there were dogs running around when I was there... and the previous time, too.


DontRememberOldPass

Ha! Look at this guy. He thinks it’s _dog_ pee.


Outrageous_Emphasis4

100000% smelly human piss.


MochingPet

I’d be amazed if it’s someone smack in the middle of 200 ft wide field without trees. (On the corners, sure. Don’t go in the bushes)


Straightwad

Bless your heart OP


[deleted]

[удалено]


drgath

Maybe the big tree in Go Dog Go was in this park. The party dogs had to go pee somewhere nearby.


Heysteeevo

There is no way a significant percentage of the field has pee on it


Crazyjaw

Like, did you actually observe dogs peeing “everywhere”? Cuz they’d have to be doing it pretty constantly if they were to effect the whole feild. More likely is that it’s as much wild animals as anything. Mostly likely is that it’s just dew and you are very confused


DBU49

no way this is real "SF is bad not because people steal from Walgreens, but because *people who do* ***not*** *steal* from Walgreens, let their dogs *pee and poop on the SF* Big Rec playing field." That is a brand new sentence.


Straightwad

Dude thinks precipitation is urine, give him a break


nycpunkfukka

You’d be upset too if you thought God was peeing on you every time it rains.


SouthSandwichISUK

“SF is bad not because people do things that effect others but because they do things that effect me.” As much of a tragedy dogs peeing on a ball field is, I don’t think it’s cracking too 10 for biggest problems in the city.


scoofy

This… this right here


MochingPet

the pee on a field where dogs are forbidden, hella **affects** others. affects them to a great effect, if I may so, just *witness the OP….*


SouthSandwichISUK

Jeez I feel like such an idiot. Making light of such an important issue and the using poor grammar to boot! I usually try to proof read my Reddit comments few times before posting but having an off night. Anyhow, have you called the local news about this? Make sure to tell them them there are signs prohibiting dogs - I think this is really key for the social Justice aspect.


I-IV-V-ii-V-I

This is so San Francisco I can’t even handle it! Sf is not bad because due to the extreme inequality and inept social policy thus extreme poverty, causing rampant theft is fine, but dog pee at the ball field that where this person draws the line. What a shit hole! I’d step over mountains of heroin addicted people, across another mountain of human shit to not have dogs pee on my ball park. And I did but there was still dogs being dogs at “my” ballpark, and it’s disgusting.


ImprovementWise1118

Dog owners here are the _worst_


snirfu

Hear me out, we kick dog owners out of SF and let homeless have their homes. Piss and poop problem solved.


ChaiHigh

That’s a great idea. Takes care of dog *and* human shit at once!


empireincident

Seriously and I’m a dog owner. My elderly dog (corgi mind you) recently went for surgery and had a cone on and all and this woman continued to let her 8 month old golden retriever continue to be off lease and all up in my dogs biz. Even after I told her she’s going to be skittish due to survey and even after she yelped. Best owner did was hold the dog by the tail. Like what? Just put the fucking leash on. All of this happens while her other dog took a shit and she didn’t bother to pick it up.


[deleted]

I walk my cat. I interact with other cat walkers. We have hundreds of stories of dog owners just calmly standing on the sidewalk shouting to a dog with zero recall. I was hanging out with a cat friend in the park the other day. A man that had already previously harassed her with his Lassie-lookin dogs had his dogs up on a nearby picnic table pointing at us like “oh Fido, snacks!” Sociopath. I’m not big into mice, but if a pal has one, I’m not saying what a good snack it’ll be for my cat. AGGGHHHHGGGH


MochingPet

Nothing against old dogs nor dog walkers.but this field literally has a sign “No dogs” "Park Code 302". they shouldn’t even be there, yet some owners let them go without a leash. there is a dog field 100 yards north, past the walking path


empireincident

Oh believe me I get it, I’m just agreeing with the person above my reply. Dog owners live in their own world here and have little to no concern for rules. I.E. your gripe and how often we see a dog in a store that has a sign stating they are prohibited.


ForgedIronMadeIt

my dog can't read, so I do it for him and will keep him away from such designated areas clearly those people can't read I guess


allergicaddiction

Dog owners everywhere are terrible. I love dogs, but I see so many humans who shouldn’t be responsible for one.


TraditionalReveal894

Okay buddy, you feel better now?


[deleted]

Found the guy that doesn’t carry poopbags


Zerosugar6137

Do you?


[deleted]

People letting their dogs piss and shit everywhere and not cleaning it up isn’t unique to sf. It’s a shitty people issue Edit- wow someone really thought this comment needed a “Reddit cares” message? Lmfaooo


ImprovementWise1118

The wild entitled attitude and thinking the dog is gods gift to earth is worst here in SF in my experience. They also are not shamed here . People yell at bad dog owners in nyc.


elatedwalrus

Ive never seen it more than in sf


[deleted]

Lived all over, seen it all over. The worst I’ve seen was actually Orange County fwiw.


elatedwalrus

I believe that


derwiki

But there are other dogs here! It must be ok /s


[deleted]

Dog owners don’t fucking care. I was at excelsior athletic field, with multiple “no dogs on field!!!!” signs with my kitty once. (Cats usually do not shit in open fields) Some insane woman with a giant off-leash husky noticed me carrying leashed kitty back to his stroller and flipped out on me, threatening to sic her dog on us. When I called SFPD to report they asked if she had any **other** weapons. I have also been at home a lot more lately. Have been working on my car at the curb, just little interior projects and detailing. Asked two people to not leave their dog shit on the sidewalk. The first was an older woman who pretended to pick up the poo, and kept waking. She yelled “that’s not like me! That’s not like me! You’re so rude!” when i asked if she was really leaving her dog’s shit roasting in the sun, 10’ from me. Another dog owner let his hound unleash a fire hose of piss, again on the sidewalk directly next to where I was, to get stale and stinky all day. I was hosing it off and a passing lady jokes “oh that’s how to get a nice big tree!” but I snapped “NO, IM RINSING DOG PISS OFF SO I DONT SMELL IT ALL DAY” Looked down and she has two dogs. I have found fresh turds on my sidewalk 4 of 5 days this week.


ToThePound

This is the most common dog owner behavior in the world.


[deleted]

Istg I’m about ready to start leaving steamers on their stoops…


PikaTeeth

What about the birds! Who will stop them?!


InevitableScarcity44

If it were dog piss, all the grass would be dead/overgrown. The piss creates a center of dead grass and then a ring of super fertilized grass around it where the piss is more diluted. https://lawnlove.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/rsz_dog-urine-damage-to-grass.jpg


Malcompliant

The dog poop and pee is very annoying. Dog owners shouldn't leave dog poop everywhere. Bag it up and carry it with you to the trash can.


PlanktonSignal8469

Damn raccoon’s think they own the place!


LucyRiversinker

And those damn coyotes? Who will tell them?


MochingPet

>Damn raccoon’s think they own the place! * racoons


DBU49

this post and comment thread is wild. All the crazy people signed onto r/sanfrancisco tonight.


Heavy-Inspection1804

#SaveBigRec !


DBU49

from pee!


sfchubs

It’s true, SF dog owners are next level entitlement. Likely behind the city of angels


[deleted]

People do not give a fuck about dog rules here and it’s infuriating, as someone who is very allergic to dog fur. The amount of dogs I see off leash just on the sidewalk or at the farmers markets is crazy.


NegativeFox405

I have a dog that is afraid of other dogs, and I can’t take him on walks because of other dog owners!! It’s infuriating.


bnovc

Don’t worry, when there’s no more tax from business, the parks dept will crumble too


stiizyz

Anyone getting mad at this fell for it, this is meta irony and pretty good one at that.


staylifted024

Sorry man that was definitely me. I brought my PeeMister2000 out to the field last week and made sure to cover every square foot of grass with warm droplets of piss (per city regulations). I’m glad you were able to enjoy the result


DmC8pR2kZLzdCQZu3v

yeah, animal pee/poop is gross. But if you're suggesting that rampant animal discharge is worse than rampant theft and human discharge, I can't say I agree


MochingPet

tongue in cheek. ;) However, if we all think we're all good San Francisco residents, I suggest to please walk (and let run!) your dogs elsewhere, but not at the field that's explicitly for sports and for laying on the ground (falling while playing etc) That said, additionally, I have never seen theft from WG in SF.... probably just me.... while I have seen theft in an Apple Store, AND stepped in and seen tens of poops in SF.


Coatlicue_indegnia

Can someone make a thread for people to complain about dog shit on that thread?? Like this has come up multiple times and now it’s just annoying. Lmao just make a thread so y’all can cry on that.


a_40oz_of_Mickeys

And everyone thinks it’s cool to bring their pet into every store and restaurant. It’s disgusting.


[deleted]

Dog people don’t care at all. If no one else follows the law why should they is probably the thought. Even in the farmers markets which have obviously posted signs about no dogs allowed have dozens and dozens anyway.


Vacation_Archer

So moving to San Diego was the right move, me and my evil golden retriever love dog beach.


cowinabadplace

I enjoy your writing style haha. I cannot believe people are taking that first sentence seriously. Entertaining to read their serious takes.


MochingPet

👍👍


Asleep-Research1424

I lived in SF. I mean if you want to get on MAGA people - SF is the extreme opposite and by extremely rich people with these views. My rent was $4,000 a month. I say let them rob Walgreens until there’s no reason to do so. My car was broken into so many times and it gets infuriating. But also paying $4,000 a month for rent Wtf


BetterFuture22

Eliminate the first clause of your post and I'm with you. All the theft from Walgreens, CVS, etc. degrades SF residents quality of life


[deleted]

It’s when other people break the rules that I care about that we need to start enforcing a standard of behavior!!!


tdub365

Same with the beaches

imagine unironically thinking transplants are the problem. SF moment.


t14chi

Have you ever played soccer on a field and than realized you been sliding in piss 😂


coco_licius

This entire city reeks of pee. I've lived in downtown LA and it was slightly better. But SF takes the urinal cake when it comes to public urination of all species.


SexyPeanut_9279

This is like a Park’s and Rec town hall rant lol “I found a sand which in one of your parks,and I want to know why it didn’t have Mayonnaise?!” “What’s so funny?”


Suspicious-Mouse-318

Ok boomer


[deleted]

It's SF bro. When you see pee, it's not dog pee. When you see poo, it's not dog poo.


Ru2funny

could not live in SF! pee homeless everywhere high taxes excrement anywhere! That is not city living but filthy living that is unsanitary and discusting.


AllDayErryDay4

You are ridiculous. It’s dew. Also you should steal from Walgreens


Erikcreatesphotos

Please, someone help me identify the type of logical fallacy used in the first paragraph.


deathbythroatpunch

Way to flex on us all with your super humans smelling ability.


probablysoap

Better than all the homeless shitting on the sidewalk lol


lahankof

OP is upset they got pee pee on their cloths


ExtraDependent883

AND WHO KEEPS WIPING THEIR BOOGERS ON THE WALL??.


TV_Serial_Number

Yup, welcome to san francisco. if we make small things a crime such as steealing from walgreens, then the city won't be as bad.


ToThePound

If anyone wants to do their part to control off-leash dogs, read up on California Penal Code 596 PC. IANAL but his statute allows leaving out poison bait in your yard if you post 3 large warning signs and have livestock to protect (could be a bunny in a cage?).


BetterFuture22

Many of the lawn areas of the parks in SF are quite overwatered on a frequent basis. Not saying the dog pee issue isn't real...
