I am a owner of two dogs, both small, that get walked twice a day. I do everything I can to make sure to pick up there waste if at all possible, however, I will admit there have been times that it dark and I can't find it in someone yard, however, I do try to go back the next day and pick it up if at all possible, I have even started to carry a flashlight with me to help this problem out.
My concern is this, over they past few month I have noticed more and more dog waste in my yard, on the side walks, and even in the street. It all seem to be come from one or two dogs. All I am asking is for the people with pets, to be respectful to others and pick up your pet waste. If you need plastic bags feel free to contact me as I will buy you some!!!
Also to the people that don't have animals feel free to keep your eyes out and if you see someone not picking up after there dogs/cats waste please kindly ask them to do so. A great way to do this is next time you are at Safeway, Fry's, etc...grab a few extra plastic bags, keep them by your front door, and when you see some's pets leaving waste in your yard, kindly go out and hand then a bag to use. I feel as a neighborhood if we do this the people that are not cleaning up after their pets will get the hint.
Thanks,
Matt
