As I walk my dog around I have observed dog waste in all areas of the community. It is so bad that I have witnessed this next to and even directly under the waste bagging stations. Either members or outsides have refused to pick up after their pets.

I have been watching other dog owners but I have not seen any during the day who have not collected their pet's waste. So I am going to guess it is happening during the evening hours.

I have had a problem with a dog owner repeatedly allowing their dog to go on my property and sidewalk during the day. They are clever enough to have not yet get caught. I will be obtaining an arrest warrant when I do catch them. Anyone that wants to know how may contact me. It is pretty easy to do.

There is a huge issue with this on Sutler Hill. I have not been able to catch the people not picking up either, but I'd like to know what else I can do. I've contacted FFX Animal control, and they've told me they need to witness the crime to do anything. I've also called them several times about dogs off leash, and they have responded.

Catching people at night is almost impossible. I suspect this is when it happens most often.

I did have a problem with poop in my yard during the daylight hours but since I put up a camera... that has stopped. I guess they know about it or they moved away.

Not much else we really can do. It is a shame that people that live here care so little and refuse to pick up after their pets.

Cleaning up after your pet.   Thanks to all that do clean up responsibly.  We get it in the mulched front bed and on the grass in front of our residence.  It may interest those who don't know that the area just inside the sidewalk is your private property line.  So if you take a picture of the person and show the police that they have trespassed on your property to let their pet relieve themselves the police can pay them a visit and so will the animal control for the crap part of it.  Maybe most pet owners don't even know that they are letting their dogs crap on your private property.  Refer to your copy of your survey that you should have received at settlement.  These pet owners act as if they have a right to let the leash out so their pet can rome free in your garden and grass area!  We should all start following these people home.  The next time you find it in your front property pick it up and deliver it to their front door.  It may also interest those who don't know that each and every one of us is paying for the plastic waste bags to a company called "duty calls" to pick up the messes at least once a week.  So if the majority aren't going to pick up and dispose of in the can's then the board is wasting our money.
