[nagdu] Picking up the busy busy when you've parked your dog. lol

[Cindy Ray]

With all due respect, why are blind people exempt from picking up after the dog? It feels as if blindness alone should not be a determining factor in whether we would be exempt or not. If there was another disability that made this impossible, then I can see it.

A great many cities have exemptions on the books for folks who are blind or otherwise so physically impaired that picking up is difficult to impossible.  I am one of those who usually can't do the baggie thing, so I just make sure my dog is WAY off in the boonies where the odds of something stepping in it go down (bushes, tall grass, outskirt of parking lot).  If I have someone with me, often that person can and will scoop for me - but I wanted to make sure that folks are aware of these exemptions.  While it'd be nice if we all could scoop, that's just not reality and so thankfully many cities exempt disabled persons.
