I don't have a dog. But I have more poop in our little tiny patch o'grass next to our driveway than any other person in the condo neighborhood. There's a big retention pond that is lovely with LOTS of grass, but somehow it's easier for them to let their dogs poop right next to my car. Which is in front of our condo, off to the right a bit. Downstairs from our glass door and windows. Add in 96 degree heat and there is nothing like that ungodly smell. No opening doors or windows, period. I've reported several neighbors from german shepards to pugs, but they keep letting them go there because these owners are lazy. There are bag dispensers and recepticles in two areas of the neighborhood. I even put signs up once and someone took them down, tore them up and threw them in the bushes. Simply "Be a responsible pet owner, pick up after your dog, Thanks." They don't follow through with fines or letters. We're getting used to it but it really sucks. First of all, I wouldn't have a dog in our condos, they're too small for the bigger ones. Secondly, if I ever got a dog, I'd pick it up no matter how grossed out I got. Hence, I have two cats.
Great discussion.
