Clean up after pets

I am writing about people leading their dogs and letting them dump on other people’s yards. They let their kids take their dogs on a leash, but they could care less about what their dogs do.

The majority of the grown-ups carry bags with them and clean up after their dogs. Some young people walk with two dogs. Dog owners, please use some courtesy and educate your kids who walk your dogs along the 200 block of West Channing Avenue.

    should call the police when u see it, because that is littlering. I’m a pet lover but not an owner at this time but i’ve always clean up after my dogs. Once i ran out of bags and knocked on door of the yard my dog just messed up i asked if they had any bags they were really nice and thanked me for not leaving it gave me extra bags and said i could throw it in their dumpster anytime. So let them now that this should be cleaned up everytime no one wants to step in it has a walker i’m always having to watch my step instead of keeping a pace.
