[nagdu] Impressions Please?

[Joy Relton]

Cindy,

Everyone in my family except me are cited and they agreed to monitor the
situation and clean up after them while they ran so that we didn't have any
problems. My point in bringing up the whole thing was just the attitude and
whether I was out-of-line with my annoyance. This happened to be a specific
incident but as the discussion has shown, it's really related to what
lawyers refer to as "the common man". Of course, as with the illusive
"common man" there is no absolute answer but the responses have reminded me
of things to be mindful of in the future. That was exactly what I wanted. I
like to have people look at issues with me from different angles. I didn't
want to be too self-righteous. 

Thanks to all. I think, though, that we have now beaten this topic to death.

Yeah, I understood that part about the bags, etc., but wondered how you were

handling the "supervised, run free" thing.

Oh Cindy,

I told people that we would handle the running free part. In this instance
the dog was still in harness and my husband had walked her to the relieving
area and should her where the bags and trash can and everything is located.

Joy, yes, I agrfee with you as well. I believve that one of our
responsibilities as a dog handler is to pick up after our dogs. There are
people enough who don't even believe we can. I have had people express
amazement at this. But it is our responsibility, specially when we are shown

by one of the members of the household where bags and the like are. Not sure

about the dogs running free though. How would you handle a b unch of dogs in

your yard. How would people know whose? I mean, if dogs do this while
running, who cleans up after them? Does it become a community effort?

Cindy
