hi.
maybe they would pick up better if they knew that, anybody can pick up roundworms from poop, people too.
that’s why we keep our dogs in good health and worm free and use proper pick up techniques.

Well the groomers called to let me know that I could come and pick up my dog because he was ready to go. The groomer also told me my Poodle  had contracted ring werms or something  and I had my dog on heart werm proventitive  and the groomer said that the dog can  pick up stuff by just walking through another dogs poop. I was mad and ferious  at the irresponsible people in my apartment complex who have dogs but don't clean up after their dogs.

Management  said that they  can't do anything unless they catch the dog in  the act and the owner  doesn't pick up after the dog but management has to know who the  dog belongs to.

My fiancee Rick will have to go out with our pooper scooper and pick up piles of dog poop that he finds   so that I don't step in it. My thinking is if someone can't be a responsible dog owner and doesn't want  or chooses not to  pick up after their dog well then they shouldn't own a dog simple as that.

When I moved into his apartment complex 20 years ago, pets were not premitted on the property  except  service animals but since then it's changed and it's the biggest mistake that the management made by allowing pets on the premisses.
