If our dog did not "deposit" as expected in OUR yard.... then no walk followed. What is it here ? We are not on a corner, but I have watched the lawns of our two neighbors on each corner across the street. It is a regular dog poop park at BOTH of those homes. One guy brings at least THREE dogs, all tied together, to the "dog poop park" lawns of both of these neighbors. Unmitigated gall ! Yes, there are responsible dog owners here, but WHY not have your dog poop in YOUR yard and then go for your walk ? And only 2% are arrogant and entitled, more like 40% from what we see in our neighborhood ! Have even seen people with dogs carrying bags of poop (which apparently they did at least pick up) and THEN, toss them into the bushes of other people's homes, and also have watched them deposit in the waste PAPER bins at the mail station POOL area. The stench in summer is completely overwhelming, but then, at least the privileged class of dog owners do not have endure that smell in their OWN garbage can at their homes. Where does this attitude come from ? Does anyone think these folks have always been like that, even in their former neighborhoods ? Or, is this a product of advanced age ? Puzzles me !
NOT "...dog owners..."......just the few few....!!!
Thanx.
