the way to stop it is meet with leo as a community and demand 1 dedicated

You have to understand their mentality. They ,the dog owners are common low life's that feel they are above you and feel they are entitled when in fact, they are just common trash. So just imagine how their children turned out. Low life's just like them. People like that should not be allowed to own animals or children!

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.

Human skin and a dog’s pad have absolutely NOTHING in common! Quit anthropomorphizing. Dogs are NOT people.

False.

just a thought - If you witness someone not being responsible - help them. Take the plastic bag and follow them home - then toss the bag into their bushes so they can easily take care of it - brainstorming

Agree with the OP that this is a disgusting things to witness, but I’ve never seen (assumed) dog poop lying near paths in bags and rarely dog poop NOT in bags (and I do a lot of walking). Considering the number of dogs I see daily on my walks I can only conclude that the vast majority of dog owners here in TV ARE responsible folks.

Several times in my yard. After one comment about dropping it and pickup on way back, I left it to see what would happen. Surprisingly, it stayed right there for four days. Every day more dogs would visit, but no one took it with them.

My friend lives in the historic side in Silver Lake in The Villages and she uses a trash can.

Oh shush... You know we're all terrible people!

I find it odd that someone would actually take the time to bag up the waste, then leave it behind...

They should be fined

Seems true if you read the following from a Google search.........

Their (DOGS) feet are able to withstand numerous textures and temperatures. In addition, dogs have special skin on the bottoms of their feet called “paw pads” that isn't found anywhere else on the body. Our dog's paws are tougher and more complex than the soles of our feet.

Perhaps that’s why there is a meeting coming up about amending deed restrictions in Lake County to establish uniformity with the other districts but of course, I’m just guessing.

As a dog owner, what I’d like myself is to have a backpack or something easy to carry, that you could put the bagged dog poo in, which would look very civilized and not smell. It is hard to talk to a person waving bagged poo around as you try to talk with them.

Definitely false…dogs pads can get burns and blisters from walking on hot surfaces.
On a sunny 86 degree day asphalt can be 135 + degrees.
