Default Just Curious About Dog Poop

Now that I have everyone's attention:

I'm just wondering why several really old dog poop threads have been revived this evening. Does anyone really need to ask again if it's OK to let their dog relieve itself on another person's property or in public places? Or should the piles be picked up if it does happen??? Really?

I don't know...just seems as if someone knows how to get a huge response on TOTV. Or, if they really are having a bad time with others dumping on their yard that one revised thread would be enough.

I know. I'm just as bad for starting a thread about it. What should one do if a coyote poops in their yard? Are coyotes allowed to come to the squares? Can I save seats for a pack of them? I don't think that coyotes smoke.

Just wondering.

Just wondering.
I was wondering the same thing and I asked that question on one of the threads. Seriously, could anyone really believe they have a right to disrespect others' property? Remember the Golden Rule!

Maybe it's because we're in the thick of our 'winter population' and are seeing lots of new piles of poop around lately.
Some may hope that pulling up good reminders will help school the recently arrived and clueless/careless.

Problem is, most of our current temporary visitors will never read these threads. There's still lots of people who never heard of TOTV, or would find no interest in it if they did.

So, at least it's a way to vent... and I don't mind. It's nice to know there ARE people here who want to do the right thing by their pets (AND pets of others) and who love it here enough to want to keep it beautiful.
And that's cool.

Which is why this subject should be covered in the Daily Sun along with an article on roundabouts and parking golf carts two up in the parking spaces (one of my pet peeves).

Preferably on a weekly basis.

Default Last night

I saw it last night.

Someone went through last night and pulled them all up! It was like they did a search for them. I guess.... just trying to start something.
