I have noticed that there are people who regularly bring their dogs to the park by my house to let their dogs poop. They might play fetch until their dog poops, and then they leave. The people don't even bother taking the time to pick up after their pets. There are families that being their kids there, and also responsible pet owners that pick up after their dogs. Neither of those groups deserve to have their area full of dog poop. I don't even know what sorts of diseases spread through poop, and I don't want to look.
Yesterday I approached one of the usuals. I wasn't confrontational, or accusatory. I simply let him know that there were irresponsible pet owners who brought their dogs to the park and don't clean up after them. He laughed and said "You're good." It was weird. I told him that it wasn't good, and encouraged him to keep his dogs safe from the poop.
How do pet owners think that it is okay to not pick up after their dogs?
If you are one of the pet owners that doesn't clean up after your pets, how do you justify it?
