Default DNA testing for dogs

Ok, I know there have been tons of "poop" threads but it's getting out of hand with inconsiderate dog owners. I have a picture of the "evidence" that was left in the middle of our front yard by some dog owner who has no respect for others. This is not even by the curb but up in the middle of our yard. We have seen owners using those long, retractable leashes and letting their dogs go way up into peoples yards to do their business while they stand on the street. Of course they do not go up in the yard themselves to pick it up.
I say dogs should be registered and have their DNA samples taken so that residents can purchase a DNA test to find the offenders! I love dogs but not the owners who have no concern for anyone else!

I've seen this many times and invariably, the owner looks away from the dog while it's in the yard and is half or 3/4 of the way up to the house. It's like the owner is looking away so they can say "I didn't trespass" and "I didn't see any dog pooping on any yard". Or "If I'm not looking at the dog, nobody else is looking at it either".

Just like toddlers who think they've outsmarted their parents, thinking nobody was looking.

Way to big to be raccoon poop! If it is I hate to meet up with that critter! It's definitely a medium sized dog. Just trying to send a message again to the dog walker offenders! Some of them never seen to learn or care or even recognize themselves. Many, many dog owners are very responsible but those that aren't give the others a very bad name! Getting very frustrated with them.

Posting a picture of a turd is offensive and rude, no matter what the complaint.

Wow, unbelievable. Can't you find better ways to occupy your time? Posting this picture is far more offensive than the act itself.

I missed the photo so I guess it's been removed -- by the "Former Michganders," I assume.

Well -- I guess it's the old story . . . "If you've seen one, you've seen 'em all!"

That is so true.
It was even a poor shot.
No Village Sunset behind it.
The grass was not trimmed aroud the item of concern.
The shot was not a groud level view with his house in the back ground to show it was his yard.
There should have been some thing to prove the date , like a newspaper.
Did he call 911 ?
Did he call that Village news paper?
Did he call Community Watch ?
All of this should be done to get the DNA ball rolling.
