It's a great idea. I remember when that became a thing and I am a bit surprised they are still around. But then we lived rural for a long time and nobody picked anything up out there and now where we are people pick up after their dogs in our neighborhood, thankfully.
I'll tell you that everyone is out with their dogs in my son's 'hood in Charlotte. All the lawns are lovely and inviting ;and the owners allow the dogs to poop in his and other yards and just go on. One day, Bruce was coming out of the garage and saw an owner allowing their dog to cruise the lower yard and poop. He walked slowly toward them and stood there staring at them. If you can remember what it was like...picture a middle school male teacher with 20 +years under his belt standing and giving you and your animal THE stare, the stare that melts 13 year olds into a puddle on the floor. Well, it works on adult dog owners too. More poop pick up and less in the yard when across the street is an option.
That is a job we wouldn't want to do. Our pawrents take care of that duty every day, twice a day, 365 days of the year. We don't understand how anyone could just let all that crap sit in their yard until someone collects it all. You could never use your yard for anything except a dog bathroom. Uck!
Ha Ha - we have a good one here too. When Mom broke her arm two years ago and couldn't perform that wonderful duty, she hired The Doodie Soldiers!!! We would show you a photo of their truck, but they come in unmarked vehicles:) Guess the sense of smell overpowers the sense of sight:)

ReplyDeleteBOL - someone had to do it I suppose!!! Can't knock the enterprise.
Yeah, the 'click here' is blanking out for some reason - maybe just a temporary glitch. Let's hope it clears for next month! YAM xx

That's a great idea, but sure not a job I would want to do!
ReplyDeleteWish we had those guys around today! Now that the snow has mostly all melted, lots of hidden treasures were revealed.
ReplyDeleteThat is funny! Here everyone has to pick up after their own dogs. Of course you always get some that don't.
ReplyDeleteWell somebody has to DOO it
