Dan in Melbourne says he saw this sign while riding along a North Fitzroy bike path, which runs parallel to a park. Says Dan: “Now, I’ve owned a dog and I know how they like to roll in stinky things, but this it taking it to a new, super gross level.”
More gross than your dog rolling in/eating some other dog’s shit? Or stepping in a fresh pile of it yourself? I’m not sure I’m convinced. (Not that humans should be exempt from proper poop-scooping etiquette, of course.)
Personally, I’d like to imagine this as a triumphant act of payback on the part of a score-settling colon cancer survivor. (“This is for all the times I’ve stepped in your dogs’ crap. Enjoy!!”)

How do they know that it’s a colostomy bag?
Once that’s verified, then you ask, “WHHHYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?!?!?”

Nahhh
I don’t want to believe that anyone would actually leave a colostomy bag in a park, but they leave used condoms, dirty diapers, and bottles of pee in parks, why not colostomy bags? I mean…face it, some people are really forgetful.

I don’t think you’ve ever had to burp (due to a build up of gases) or change a colostomy bag. The contents of one of those bags is worse than anything you’d find in your toilet (including post taco bell). Since it doesn’t get the extra time in the large intestine the contents are super gross and stinky. It’s by far the most disgusting thing a dog could roll in or eat.

presumably there are receptacles for dog waste on the trail and in the park why can’t the colostomy bags go in there?
This isn’t MORE gross than dog shit, but less understandable. If the dogs are allowed off leash in the park they will crap in random places and even vigilant owners may not be able to find every turd (compounded by the fact that at a distance it can be hard to tell if a female dog is shitting or pissing). PEOPLE HAVE OPPOSABLE THUMBS! Someone used their opposable thumbs to remove the colostomy bag, presumably attach a new one, and thought “What to do with this now? I know! I’ll throw it into those shrubs!”
At least I *hope* that is what happened. This whole thing takes a new, sick twist if they brought it from home.

This is yet another reason I do not have a dog. Or a colostomy bag. But mostly a dog.

I would pay good money to see any dog, any size, actually get into a colostomy bag.
I would double that payment for any cat.

Man, I hate it when stuff is just “too yuck.” (But at least this person’s attempting to be sympathetic about your ailment…)

There are better ways to get your bowel contents into someone else’s house.
All you have to do is take a dump in their bathroom, and by flushing, you send a veritable geyser of noxious fecal bacteria throughout the home’s entire air circulation system.

Not that I am supporting colostomy bag dumping, but I have to wonder about the dog owners. If they have them on a leash like they are supposed to, wouldn’t they know that their dog is getting into a colostomy bag?
I’ve never owned a dog but I did take care of a friend’s while she was on vacation. Perhaps I was just hypervigilant because it wasn’t my dog, but I knew when she found the deer scat and pulled her away before she rolled in it. When I walk my cat, I know when he’s found something interesting. His attitude totally changes. Sometimes “interesting” is merely an odd shaped blade of grass that he must now spend 5 minutes marking. But one time “interesting” was racoon scat and I pulled him away. Not a happy kitty.
I’m thinking that the note writer either doesn’t leash his dog or isn’t particularly observant. Either way, now you know people are disgusting and knowing is half the battle.

It is just offal to leave solid waste in this manner. Don’t evacuate the park without your bag!

Dean Vaughn was right. -ostomy really is short for “Oh, stop Tommy!” as he creates a new opening…or dumps his poopies in the park.

Man if I had me a supply of full c+bags I’d be tripping over myself to get to the weekly “retailers vs servers “soft ball game. A quick splash of white paint……………….
I would then pray that Danielle is called safe after diving face first into first base.

Oh, yes. One more thing.
Apparently this person would be cool with it if I emptied the contents of my *ileostomy* bag in the park. There are no bowel contents involved, since I haven’t *got* a bowel any longer. It’s straight from the small intestine (ileum) to the bag for me.
Not all ostomy bags are used for colostomies.
Carry on.
