Tiny bags of poo

Forwarded from the Department of Public Utilities

I am hoping you can publish this picture on your website and let folks know it’s great that they’re bagging their pet waste – BUT, they need to throw it in the trash! Leaving these bags under trees is not a great idea.

Who do they think is going to pick it all up? The poo fairy? They can walk their dog but too lazy to toss in a trash can? smh

Yep, I ran by there yesterday and thought ‘this is surely a CHPN topic’. I was so confused. Going to the trouble of bagging and then decorating the tree base. Plenty of ammo for Flaming Bag of Poo. This might be the next heated topic at the CHA meeting.

Gotta laugh at how hypocritical this behavior is: bag it so it appears that you are a good neighbor / law abiding citizen, then, sneak behind a tree and leave empty-handed. Genius or sneaky. Or just embarrassed to carry a bag of pop….

Right after a post about a big stack of poo we get one about little bags of it…

Some dog walkers “park” their bags so that they don’t have to carry them through the entire walk and then pick them up when they pass by again. Just maybe these were waiting for the return pick-up. At least I hope that was the case.

I think someone has taken Elaine Odell’s comment about goat poo – “The goats’ gift to the orchard! Nature’s fertilizer.” – to another level!

Following that logic: This must be “the dogs’ gift to the tree” – or little “to-go bags of fertilizer” from the fertilizer fairy.

No “parking” in this case. There are at least 10 bags.

I have noticed this while walking home. We (Enrichmond) are working on getting a can installed.

Thanks for mentioning this. They are all over the place– along the canal walk, in parks, behind Richmond Hill… and I just don’t get it. Are there no trash bins in sight? Is it too difficult to carry the bag until you find one?
