At the risk of inducing an epidemic of terminal boredom, may I say this: the issue here is not poop. The issue is reasonable accommodation of the needs and desires of Villagers who happen to be dog owners. I am well aware that dog parks were not part of the promised amenities when I purchased my home. But perhaps they should be. That's my point. I could be wrong, but perhaps there would be fewer people walking their dogs in the vicinity of postal stations if there were an attractive alternative. Costs associated with providing and maintaining such a facility would be negligible compared to those of other recreational facilities.

I am always quite amazed at the number of posters on this site who seem to be utterly obsessed with "poop". Dr. Freud once postulated that such fascinations had their origin with early difficulties involved in potty training. Hence the derivation of the "anal retentive" and "anal explosive" personality types. I myself decline to make comment on such matters.
