Dog Walkers ‘Pooper Scooper’ Law Enforcement

Submitted by ub on

This one is a disgusting bit of business, but it needs to be addressed, as it is becoming a curb hazard, with frustrations of dog leavings on the rise.

On our sidewalks, inside our parks, at curbs and in plain sight, dog poo is being left in increasing amounts, lying in wait for an unlucky individual to step on.

Most folks we have spoken with say they're tired of this crap. They report finding these droppings on our streets and being forced to step around this nasty stuff. Most agree - If you cant pick up after your own pet, then you should not have a pet.

The weather was mild and Mother Nature was apparently pleased, as folks arrived at Orchard Beach yesterday and bared it almost all. One attendee, Peter Quinones says "Well I came with my bathing suit underneath my clothes. I was hoping that someone from staff of Friends (Pelham Bay Park) would go in the water with me holding our banner. Man what publicity with those TV cameras recording us. Well, I decided not to go in and just take some photos-maybe next year". Here are those photos, courtesy of Mr Quinones.
