Pick up your doggies poo🙏

Deb from Richmond

COMMON CURTESY Not a big JOB aye!
Schools, churches are private property and it’s nice that they allow us kids pets etc to use the grounds without being trespassed. Or any other place. doggy poo galore on the school grounds on Darcy street - Going to check with the school management what the rules are with CCTV camera.

Here are Some of the stuff that effect us, environment with peoples negligence.

Dog waste that gets washed into waterways may carry pathogens that affect living things in the water and can make people sick that are in contact. Also, nutrients released from dog poop can stimulate the growth of algae and other plant life, making the water unsuitable for recreational uses.

It Carries Diseases

Even if your dog doesn't show any symptoms of illness, their waste could still carry bacteria and parasites that are harmful to other pets and humans. And you don't need to come into direct contact with dog poop in order to contract an illness from it — diseases in poop can be transmitted by flies or other pets that come into contact with

It's Common Courtesy

If you've ever had to clean dog poop from the bottom of your shoe, you don't need to be told stepping in the stuff can ruin an unsuspecting person's day. Add to that the impact dog waste can have on the environment and public health, and it's not hard to see that picking up after your dog not only makes you a responsible dog owner, but also a considerate neighbor. It's simply the right thing to do.
