Lost another today

Well actually i told them i would no longer be cleaning their dog turd infested property anymore. I have been wanting to get rid of them since i started but couldn't afford to. I certainly can't afford to lose them now, but i have standards even if they don't.

Have a couple with that problem. Very unpleasant. They don't seem to think it's tough on the poor old person who has to tiptoe through it all!!


Hopefully you'll replace with better custy.

Actually, some dog owners are weird about their little pooches. One lady really couldn't understand why I was so cross about getting poo all over my hoses .

just say I will pull it through your house and see what she says.

some people just dont think this is the problem, others are just plain rude. most are nice if you explain to them.

Some (not all, but some) dog owners are on another planet. They treat animals like humans and people like animals. Try my hardest to avoid dog owning customers and their doggie gardens, disgusting >:(

I understand that it's a pain in the ass to wander through dog poop, especially when you have to be lookin up most of the time, I've had the same problem before. I very nicely told the customer that I would be charging an extra £5 for the time it takes to clean my shoes and hoses after the job, now there is not a turd in sight! Try that before you cancel the job, you'd be suprised how the thought of more money gets them off their lazy buts!
