Ben says, "Pick up your dog's poop!"

Dog doo can get pretty personal.

I have sympathy for Ben, as the worst dog poo offenders leave their cr*p on the grounds where we live.

SFPD Dog Sign Says . . .

If dog owners would only follow these San Francisco Police Department signs.

The text of the sign references, City and County of San Francisco - Animal Care and Control - Health Code - Section 40 - Dog to be Controlled so as Not to Commit Nuisances.

Section 40 states:

(a) It shall be unlawful for any person owning or having control or custody of any dog to permit the animal to defecate upon the public property of this City or upon the private property of another unless the person immediately remove the feces and properly dispose of it; provided, however, that nothing herein contained authorizes such person to enter upon the private property of another without permission.

(b) It shall be unlawful for any person to walk a dog on public property of this City or upon the private property of another without carrying at all times a suitable container or other suitable instrument for the removal and disposal of dog feces.

(c) Visually handicapped persons who use Seeing Eye Guide Dogs are exempt from this law. (Amended by Ord. 420s78, App. 9/8/78)

Unsightly Dog Doo Disposal Habits

There's a new trend in the neighborhood.  Some dog owners are responsibly picking up dog poo, and bagging it in plastic (as you can see in these photos).

However, I can only guess that they're only too lazy to throw it in their trash bins, or they're trying to avoid making their homes smell.

In any event, the ultimate outcome is these dog owners are making our neighborhood rather unsightly.
