No one likes stepping in dog poop. Whenever we do, many of us dog owners ourselves, we swear and scrape and stew about the irresponsible nature of others. But Susan Miller, 43, of Naperville, had an unusual reaction when she stepped in dog droppings left by her neighbor's pet on Wednesday night. According to police, Miller collected the excrement and threw it into her neighbor's sliding patio screen. She then filled several plastic bags with dog feces and hung them "on various places on the patio," police told the Chicago Sun-Times. She also stole a sign--which asked apartment complex resident to pick up dog waste--and put it on her neighbor's property. Miller was charged with disorderly conduct.
