I got chased by the little lap-dog thing of a little old lady i passed on the canal towpath earlier. Had to turn around & ride back to said little old lady so she could get her dog back! 😆 Nice little fella he was, liked having his tummy tickled.
I'm just about to take poochie out for a ten miler, ten of which he will do alongside my back wheel. If he poos he does it as far away from the path as possible but against a tree or on a molehill or tuft of grass. I've never taught any of my dogs to do this but they all do. I think they prefer to do that. If it was ever anywhere someone would stand in it (Spetznaz and flashers excepted) then I would flick it or bag it. When I'm not on my bike and if someone comes past at anything faster than walking pace they get a mouthful or a diversion off the path. It's all just about being responsible. Walking dogs on dedicated MTB trails isn't responsible and nor is going hell for leather on shared trails. It's not really rocket science is it.
