"My proposed solution is to take matters into my own hands anonymously."

In the eyes of many, nothing is more wonderful than a cheerful dog face rushing toward you on a hiking trail, free from the cares of the outside world and restrained by a leash. A dog being a dog outside—sniffing about, exploring, and spending time with the pack—is a welcome sight for dog lovers.

However, not everyone experiences this, particularly on hiking trails. There are several very good reasons for this, including the fact that some people are afraid of dogs and try to avoid them as much as possible, among other things.

The proliferation of dog poop, in bags and unbagged piles, dotting the trail in significant amounts is another common complaint. The redditor in today’s post experienced all these and had to post the story in the r/UnethicalLifeProTips community so as to get other people’s opinions.

And this is how the Unethical Life Pro Tips story started out...

I have had these dogs come up to me and try and jump on me

The next time I see their dog off leash

The owner does not seem capable of keeping it under control

Do you have a suggestion for something I could do

The reddit thread got more than 300 comments and was upvoted 2.4K times. As usual, redditors had a lot to say and didn't hesitate in stating their minds.

Below are some of their comments...

1. No more trash and no more bass

2. There's no way to tie it to you

3. Complains have been made to the office

4. You can pretend to be god if you want

5. They’d make a general statement to the building

6. Pick your dog sh*t subtle

7. It's not illegal as long as it's not threats

8. Dude has issues not leashing also

9. Sh*t corrects bad behavior is the moral of the story

10. The OP promised to give an update after everything's done

11. And the OP did keep up to the promise and here's the update

12. Why aren't leash laws enforced?

13. This Redditor advices the OP to leave sh*t everywhere

14. Posting a notice in all public areas

15. The OP already tried the sh*t option

16. I'm being abundantly cautious here

17. This Redditor gave a well detailed brief on what the letter should look like

18. This Redditor has clearly chosen the violence route

19. This is where the whole thing is complied

20. I think impersonating management is illegal

It’s not so hard to just put a dog on a leash whenever you’re out in public. There are younger hikers and those with disabilities who are more vulnerable to injury from overly excited, unleashed dogs.

And yes, there are people who just want to enjoy a hike without having to navigate around free-range animals at every turn in the trail.
