Someone will just start another one.
Since 2007, I've never seen anyone walk their dog in The Villages and not pick up.
I'm not saying it doesn't happen.
I'm not saying all pet owners are responsible humans.
But I don't think the problem is as pervasive as some suggest.
Ya know, you're right. Never thought if it. I hear folks complain about it, but never saw it here. (A person actually walking away from a mess). I will say though, when I first moved to a particular courtside villa village and took walks, i would see big piles. I started picking it up along with cigarette butts. I did it for about a week, then realized it was a losing battle. Now, I'm not saying that a LOT of people in that village don't pick up.....but I will say that it had to be at least 5 or 6 regular poopers. It was too much for me to keep up with. I don't live in that village any longer. In my new village (which is not villas), I do NOT see any piles. I think that's because it's all open and we can see everything. In the courtyard villas you're kinda hidden.
