Junk mail: Spanish town cracks down on pooped out pet owners

Yep, junk mail is crap.

Dog owners in a town outside Madrid, Spain, who don’t scoop their pets’ poop are receiving it in the mail.

Officials in Brunete have gotten volunteers who look for uncaring dog owners — and strike up conversations.

If the volunteers get enough info to look up violators’ addresses, fecal vigilantes then send a strong message.

The dung is mailed back to the owners in a box marked “Lost Property.”

The Telegraph reports that 147 “express poop” deliveries were made during one week in February and there has been a 70 percent drop in discarded droppings since then.
