account.
RUSSIAN
model Maria Ivakova has become an Internet sensation after posting a YouTube
video in which she punishes a dog owner for not picking up her pet's poop from
a pavement. The clip titled "Clean the poo made by your friend" has
attracted millions of viewers within days.
In
the footage, which was carried by Russian TV, the 26-year-old blonde confronts
the other woman, identified as Yulia, and they exchange heated words before
Ivakova scoops the poop, chucks it into Yulia's sports convertible and scampers
off laughing.
Ivakova
begins by saying, "While waiting for a friend I became an eyewitness to a
most inappropriate situation. This is very familiar." The camera pans to
the dog mess and she says, "I want to go and sort this problem."
The
camera switches to Yulia in her car—with her pet in the passenger seat—and
Ivakova says, "This is the guilty one. Excuse me, girl, can you..."
But before she can go on, Yulia looks into the camera and says, "Take away
the camera. Turn it off."
Ivakova
continues to record their face-off and tells Yulia she'll only stop when Yulia
picks up her doggie's doo-doo. A defiant Yulia refuses to leave her car and
snaps at Ivakova, "If you're bothered with this shit, clean it
yourself."
An
agitated Ivakova retorts, "Why should I clean after your dog? You don't
like me filming? Clean the shit from your dog and I'll go away."
Unrelenting, Yulia tells Ivakova, "Do you think that I'll stand up and
clean the shit?"
Ivakova
then admonishes Yulia, "Yes, even your dog is cleverer than you." But
when Yulia swears at her, Ivakova plucks the excrement off the ground with a
napkin and drops it into Yulia's car saying, "Bon appétit." She then
runs away giggling as an outraged Yulia screams and calls her a
"b*tch".
According
to the Daily Mail, viewers have been polarised on the matter. Some have sided
with Ivakova and her annoyance at pet owners who don't pick up after their
animals, while others supported a more tactful approach in dealing with
delinquent dog owners.
Ivakova's
friends said she was concerned about the health risks from dog excrement being
left out on streets and pavements. (The Daily Mail)
