The main reason I’m covering this story is so I can complain about my hoity toity neighbors and their tiny dogs leaving crap on the grass next to the sidewalk for my husband and me to step in before we get into the car. I live in Berlin and people rarely clean up after their dogs here. It’s been about four months since I moved here and I’ve stepped in dog crap twice as compared to that same number of times in the years leading up to this point. It’s the best place I’ve lived in a lot of ways, but the random scheisse surprises really bring it down a few notches.
So if I thought Dane Cook was an unfunny plagiarist before, I now have a more personal reason to dislike him: he doesn’t clean up after his dog. In fact his neighbors put him on notice to do it, and he still left dog crap on the ground. So they got it on tape and are taking him to court.
Cook is at war with the owners of the West Hollywood apartment complex where he lives for not picking up after his dog, Beast. “Neither he nor his girl friend pick up after the dog,” said a source. “They’ve sent him three notices so far over the last year warning him he’ll be evicted, and they have video. The neighbors all hate him.” The landlord has now filed a complaint in court. “Dane vigorously denies the allegations in the complaint and is looking forward to complete vindication through the legal proceedings,” said his rep Ina Treciokas. Another source said “a number of witnesses” will come for ward to speak on Cook’s behalf if the case goes to trial.
[From the NY Post]
In Germany plastic bags cost like .20 a piece, so you can see people being cheap about carrying them around to clean up, but they’re free in America so you don’t even have that lame excuse. You’re also considered a social pariah in America if you don’t clean up after your dog, and many people do it out of obligation, but not Cook. He doesn’t seem to have moral compass required to actually care if he steals from some and majorly inconveniences others. Maybe it will matter to him once he gets kicked out of his apartment.
Dane Cook is shown at the “Fun Fearless Male of the Year” awards on 3/3/08, thanks to PRPhotos.

This is precisely why you get people saying they hate dogs because of the mess they leave, when in fact it’s the repulsive, selfish dog owners that are at fault. And the poor dogs get all the bad press.
Three days in public stocks while his angry neighbours and other interested parties fling piles of dog shit at him is the VERY LEAST he deserves.

I asked my son’s babysitter if she’s stepped in poo, and she has also only lived here a few months and she said “yes!” Damnit. My husband did too the other night.
@Scott - I wish I knew who was doing it, I would put the shit on their porch, that’s a great idea! Glad it got your neighbor to stop. Maybe I can put up a sign or something.

Dirty bastard!

Dane Cook: Unfunny and over-exposed. In a fair and equitable universe, he’d be salting fries at McDonalds and living in a trailer with some gap-toothed fat harpy her six crotch-goblins.

Cook is such a douche. Is anyone surprised that he fails to do something indicating responsible behavior?
I like the poo on the porch idea… -
You’re living in Berlin? I’m jealous! i used to live there for four years and while i wondrously never stepped into poo, it’s really an issue in the city.
Never heard of Dane Cook. -
Years ago in Amsterdam there was actually a picture postcard of a photogenic dog turd with a little Dutch flag planted on top taken on a cobbled street.
I guess the attitude toward scoopen da poopin is different over there.

I still think his sense of humor is intact.

As Slick Willy used to say, “I feel your pain”.
We had a guy move in across the street when I was stationed overseas who had two dogs. He walked them every morning and it seems they had picked a favorite spot to do their business - the ground at the base of my mailbox. By the time I got back they’d been doing it for almost a year, and my wife had done everything from writing him letters to calling the homeowner’s association, and nothing stopped him.
So I saved up plastic grocery bags for a few weeks and just started picking it up every time he let them shit there… and putting it on his porch (sans the bag). Not sure if it will work for you, but it got that dumbass to stop.
Just label it ‘return to sender’.
