Honestly never thought about this really one way or another since our neighborhood has not made this an issue. Reading this post has made me AWARE. Thank you.
HOWEVER, I am surprised the DIAPER GENIE has not been discussed on this long thread. I do have the answer for those that don't want to bring the poop home because of the smell in the garage with the hot summers. The Diaper Genie will mask the odors and it is sanitary. We use biodegradable bags, too. I agree there is no reason to toss the bag behind bushes or drop down a sewer. |
Maddie, I've learned that many of the people down the street seem to have an understanding that dogs can go in everybody's yards. Maybe you'll have neighbors like that. Personally, I'd prefer not to have people or dogs in my yard unless they're visiting me and Emma.
I go to great lengths, usually exporting the dog in the car or cart, to let her poop somewhere she's happy and I'm not on private property.
I'm happy to see that these dialogues give everybody a chance to know what each other is thinking.
