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.
Who carries the backpack? You or the dog? Designer collections from Vera Wang, J. Lopez and Igloo (for use on hot days. Turn the poo into Poopsicles).

Apparently you didn’t search enough!

Yes, they are tougher than the soles of our feet.

But at 90° weather, asphalt can get up to 150°. And once that asphalt hits 125° the pads on a dog's feet can suffer. If they are just standing there while their human chit-chats with the neighbor, their paws can suffer 1st degree burns if the asphalt is 125°. At 150° the burns can blister.

Humans can't handle much more than 100° on their bare feet.

alligators, as mating season gets underway. It could start a bit early this year, according to animal experts at Gatorworld Orlando, because of the unusually warm temperatures.

“This is the time of year you find alligators underneath cars. They show up at your front door. They’re moving around,” “Winter’s over; spring is here.” so be care wkere you walk your dog or it maybe food for these alligators.

Default Trash Can

A neighbor puts out a black trash container. The garbage collectors empty it and place it back on the driveway. So if not allowed, no one has reported the neighbors for this violation, and the trash collectors don’t realize they are not supposed to empty it.

I could post their address and you could bring your bagged dog poop and throw it in their open container. You’ll see it on their driveways Tuesdays and Fridays. We’re South of SR 44.

Well, some people, in violation of restrictions, put these nice little signs in their yard asking you to let your dog poop there.

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.
I can assure you there were PIGS 20 years ago. I have proof. We had 16mm movies of a family picnic roughly 1955. We never had a 16mm projector so I had never seen them till I had them transferred to DVD. The good old days? Memory is selective. I have proof of the trash all ove.

I think it is very disgusting that a dog owner would put his bag of dog crap into another person's trash can.

I think it was wonderful what owner of the trash can did.
