I just happened across this. There are awareness ribbons for everything. Who would've guessed that there's one for dog poop?!

I Am Not Alone In The Club Of Dog Poo Ranters

Criminy!

Today I walked a mere 4-1/2 blocks from Muni Metro to the house, and had about 5 dog poop near misses. The adjacent picture shows just one of the near misses.

I'm happy to discover that I'm not the only one driven to ranting in this neighborhood and adjacent neighborhoods, just read these two Noe Valley blog threads:

While doing (no pun intended) some research to set up this blog, I ran across this excellent post by Mel Freer on the No Dog About It blog, Why You Should Pick Up Your Dog’s Doo-Doos.

Yuck!  Bottomline, dog doo can pass along contagious bacteria and parasites, and is an environmental pollutant.
