Poop Patrol in the Park…Doggie Waste & Responsible Pet Parents
Wow, what a beautiful day! I decided to leash up my two Bostons (Sailor Boy and Opus) and take them to the park. They were having a wonderful time and I was having a good walk with them until…I stepped in dog poop. What a bummer! Had to stop, take off my shoe, find something to scrape the mess off of the bottom of my sneaker, coordinate the two leashes & dogs while I tried to balance on one foot.
Before I left for the park, I prepared myself for the inevitable…I had “poopie bags” in my pocket for Sailor Boy and Opus’ “indiscretions”…what I don’t understand is why pet parents fail to pick-up after their “children”. It’s part of the deal when we take our pooches out in public.
Doggie waste smells, it’s unsightly, it contains bacteria and can contain parasites, it can wash into public water sources…and quite frankly…it can ruin a perfectly good day in the park!
