Over the past few months, I have noticed more and more often that some residents are leaving their pet waste in bags along the walking paths, this is not only disgusting it is disrespectful. We all live in this community and want to keep it beautiful and clean, there is no one hired to clean up after you or your pets that is your job as a pet owner. While I appreciate you bagging up the pet waste, please finish your job by disposing it properly.

I saw this once on the path around Hawkins preserve. It turned out that a couple was walking two dogs and didn't want to carry the full bag around so they left it and picked it up on the way back.

Yeah, we have been seeing that for the past few years and yesterday we saw a bag of dog crap next to a bench near Edna's on the Hogeye trail. Some dog owners are truly disgusting.

Bugs me as a dog owner also but I'll pick it up and take care of disposing ones I see.

At least we're not in San Francisco and have to deal with human feces.

That's the story they use if they get caught conveniently forgetting it on the way back (by some other route).
Meanwhile, back at the scene of the crime, everyone that goes by is graciously treated to the disgusting sight of a bag of poop that some self entitled individual(s) left for all the world to enjoy.
Hey! It's your dog poo! Pick it up and carry it to the proper disposal container. Don't leave it hoping that someone else will do you job for you.

The world is going insane. A dog owner was walking their dog (as dog owners are known to do) when it relieved itself. The owner picked up the droppings and discarded the plastic baggy in someones trash bin, which was out by the curb. It was trash pick up day. The owner of said trash can had (cue the music) "A RING DOORBELL". That night, identifying the dog owner (they went house to house showing a photo til they identified him) they went back home and put together their response to this heinous crime. The next day Staples made a sale. They made large signs, photo of the accused throwing the baggy in the trash, another of the dog in full squat, with such slogans as "Why would I want your dog sh**" and I won't sh** in your can, please don't sh** in mine". I understand being a bit annoyed, but everyone, from the dog owner to the garbage can owner, seem to have lost all ability to behave in a civilized manner. So many things that are common today I would find impossible to believe twenty years ago.

Not that we know of. I call for a dna service in TV just to be sure. Maybe increase the cost of a dog license to cover the expense.

Which village allows trash cans? As far as I know, we can only put out trash bags.

How about being more responsible TO the pet. That's more important to me. Pets don't get asked if they want to be someone's pet. They don't really have a choice in the matter.

I think a responsible dog owner will walk barefoot along with their dog, whenever they feel the urge to walk their dog on blacktop without booties.

I think that should be an enforced law. If you walk your dog on blacktop when the outdoor temperature is over 70°, you are required to walk barefoot. OR you can put booties on the dog.
