Forgive me if you’ve addressed this in a previous edition of the RedEye, but I feel that a message needs to be sent to a portion of your target audience who feel the snow is a perfect excuse to slack on their dog-owning responsibilities.
While some might curse the snow for the transportation woes it inflicts, I curse what I know will follow upon its melting: oodles and oodles of doggie doodles.
I understand that the snow may be too deep to initially “collect” the dog’s droppings, but come on, how often does that happen? More often than not I feel that people use the snow as an excuse to let themselves off the hook for cleaning up. Take a stroll down Belmont once the temperatures rise, and you’ll find yourself dodging danger every step of the way. It’s obnoxious and disrespectful to the good folks who hit the sidewalks every morning. If you are going to have a dog, clean up after it.
