If a dog poops in the woods & nobody sees it, did it still poop??
Yes!!
Not sure about other neighborhoods, but Albany is littered with dog poop - some still lightly steaming when I go for my morning dog walk.
1) Even if it's dark and nobody is around to see - pick up after your dog!
2) to runners who run through parks with un-leashed dogs - your dog is pooping behind you - you know this..you know I know this....but pretend you don't.
3) It doesn't matter if the poop is small ( by doggy standards), it still stinks and still gets stuck between the bumps of shoe soles...or...gag!...between toes.
4) People who don't pick up after their dog has pooped RIGHT on footpaths have reached a new kind of low , they should get THEIR noses rubbed in it!
5) Dog owners are obligated by law to pick up after their dogs. If I have to...surprise!.... so do you. There is a $300 fine if you're caught out.
6) Yes, he/she may be a shiny gift from heaven to you BUT their poop is still full of nasties - stink, viruses, parasites, more stink.
CLEAN UP!
