That is very common-sensical. I kind of got the impression that the law was anything but that. Just a joke. Sounds reasonable. Swimming pools (an attractive nuisance) without protective gates are always a problem for liability. They went over things like this heavily while I was in law school (University of Minnesota Twin Cities) but I graduated in 1989--quite a long time ago. I do not think unpicked up dog poop would be an attractive nuisance to anything but flies!
