Basically, I'm saying that I'm always aware of what she's walking over and what's around her.

I respect the workmen and the hard hot work they do, and Until the house and lot are done, other homeowners and pets enter the property at their own risk. I can't see construction workers tossing construction debris into a pile and being all tidy about a chicken bone.
Are you kidding? I believe at the very least littering is actually illegal..at least in Florida it is.

Respecting the work they do has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with being a lazy, disrespectful, litterbug. If someone arrives at a location to work, they arrive with their food in a bag. No one walks around with a bunch of chicken wings in their hands or pockets. It really isn't a stretch to put the chicken bones back in the bag and take it with them. It is NOT the homeowners responsibility to pick up after the workmen. I can tell you the owner who has been living there quite peacefully for a year, was smoking angry because he has two small dogs that would surely have scooped up those bones in a split second had mine on his walk around the circle not done so first.
