In my neighborhood, I'd be only too happy if dog owners would pick up
their dogs' crap. I don't give a rat's ass if they secretly play with
it, eat it, or dry it and put glitter on it to make holiday ornaments.

Watching every step I take G.


It's the law here and most people are pretty good at picking up.

It's the law here, too, Don. But still....I see these poor shmucks out in
all kinds of weather, bent into the wind, rain and snow, trying to pick up
dog **** with a napkin, and I wonder what holes in their lives are filled by
these hideous pets. Imagine what a country this would be if our govmint took
a tenth of the cash we're wasting in Iraq, and provided mental health
services for dog owners.

In the movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", do you recall the scene with
the peasants kneeling in a field, pointlessly slogging gobs of mud from one
place to another? :-) Future dog owners.

If those owners clued in, they would buy a good 'pooper scooper'.
I bought a cheaper version, but it lasted out two dogs. No way I was
taking a chance soiling my hands with doggie doo.
note: I could use the grocery store plastic bags with mine...rather
than the expensive original equipment variety.

Regardless of the tools, I think it's weird. Most normal people are happy
when they can finally stop changing a kid's diapers. Then, they go out and
get a dog.
