When my partner "helpfully" walks the dog but then returns after 5 minutes saying "he didn't want to do a poo" and immediately goes out somewhere because she left it until the last minute only for him to be barking incessantly at me 5 minutes later when I'm in the middle of the thing that prompted her to try and help in the first place because he urgently needs to go out again.
despite my explanation that sometimes he needs more than 5 minutes to get the cogs whirring in the morning because he doesn't have the luxury of a cup of coffee to get things moving she still expects him to fire it like a projectile from his arse the second his paws touch grass. It's worse when she does his night time walk and he hasn't done one that day because I know I'll be dragged out of bed at 2am instead by him panicking because there's what seems to be a turtle trying to exit his sphincter that he didn't know was up there but "you need to walk him until he goes or I won't get any sleep tonight" must come out in an alien language she doesn't understand.
the park is only 10 houses away so it's not the end of the world during the day but if you're going to do something to be helpful. it's nice if it's actually helpful.
