I would be giving notice to them.
We recently moved out of our house and kept it as a rental. We gave the tenants the option of having the lawn/gardening taken care of every fortnight over summer/spring and every month in winter/autumn for $10 a week added to the rent or they had to to the up keep themselves to a set out standard. They are doing it themselves and so far doing a great job. Might be an option you can have if you get new tenents in or give to these tenents if you don't evict them.

we took our son to the inspection as we had no one at that time of day who could look after him for the half hour needed. plus if someone was coming to my house for what ever reason, I always chain my dogs up out of respect for others.

With regards to dogs being chained, that would be your choice. Personally, my dogs never get chained. ever. fullstop. And a tenant who has a pet has a right to allow their pet to remain unchained. The landlord has no right to request otherwise.
As a landlord, the state of the toilets and the walls inside the house, and the state of the backyard, should be followed up with ASAP, and if the tenant fails to rectify the issue, then you should immediately proceed with the eviction process. The cleanliness of the place isn't really in the control of the landlord, but damage to the premises certainly is. We tend to be a little lenient on dead grass and small holes from pets at our IP, but the tenants are made clear before they ever move in that they will be required to return the yard to the condition it was when they moved in. Big holes or any extra damage we require them to fix ASAP.

Did you really say that there was faeces on the floor in the toilet??? I would be so getting them out of there. They sound like terrible tenants.
