when your dog does his business somewhere other than your yard do you clean it up? or are you one of those that just don't care where your dog does their business? if you are at a park is it different? if you are on the other side of it do you enjoy the land mines dog owners leave in your yard? you can't blame the dog cuz they're like children and must be taken care of and i think if dogs had hands they would clean after themselves. i can't say i am perfect but my dog is small and i try to keep my dog in my yard. my neighbors on the other hand have a dog that has piles that are like small mountains and i hate it when they leave it in my yard so much that i will shovel it and leave it at the bottom of their stairs no way in hell i will mow over the mounds...

I always take a bag and pick up after my dog, but many people in my neighborhood do not. One day the kids and I were playing in the school yard across the street from our house and there was a man there playing with a fairly large dog. As they were playing, the dog decided to do his business right in the middle of the blacktop. The man was in a quandry. He didn't have a bag (oops!) but everyone saw his dog go and was waiting to see what he'd do. He walked off for a minute and returned with a strip of 'caution' tape that had been wrapped around a newly constructed play structure. Picking the pile up with the tape, he then disposed of it in one of the construction dumpsters. Very clever I thought.

at least he made an effort to do something with the poo rather than leave it to attract flies or children

Yes, I always pick up after my dogs at the park or we are on a walk. I take plastic bags or paper towel with me at all times just in case. I just think its the right thing to do. I wouldn't want to pick up after someone else's dog who is on my lawn and neither should they pick up after mine. Also, it is just sanitary because it attracts flies and dogs can pass worms, etc, that way. My dogs are vaccinated and on preventative, etc, but you never know about someone else's.

I always pick it up. If I have my dogs out walking then I have a handfull of baggies in my pocket. I also go out into our own yard with the poop scoop every week and clean up after them. That's just one of the responsibilities that you take on when you get a pet.
