cleaning up after your dog, lol, yeah, right.
Okay, first let me say that as a dog owner, I aim to be a responsible one. I keep my dog on a leash, and he's well mannered. Of course he's a golden retriever, so he's not aggressive and very friendly, which means he's not the type of dog to cause problems in public.
Furthermore, I don't let my dog [censored] in someone elses yard. There really hasn't been many opportunities for him to, as we live in an apartment, but I digress. I'm on the second floor of my apartment building, with a parking garage built into the center of the apartments, and a sort of court yard on the first floor. This is where people take their dogs to pee and [censored] outside. There are two other places, one near the street w/ grass, and it has a sign that asks you to clean up after your dog. The other is a trail that goes down to the lake, and it has the same sign. Just now I was letting my dog out, down in the courtyard, where there are no signs about cleaning up after your dog, and he's taking a big old [censored] when one of the ladies from the leasing office is walking into her apartment. Unbeknownst to me, she's right behind me, standing in her doorway, watching my dog take a [censored]. Tex (my dog) finishes up and as we start to leave I hear a voice behind me; (note: she had to stand in her doorway for a good 15 seconds waiting for tex to finish taking a [censored]) "You need to pickup after your dog" I didnt exactly hear it, so I said "huh?" "You need to clean up after your dogs, clean up his poop" "Even in here?" I said. "It's a $50 fine if you don't" "Oh." And I walked away. Having no intentions of cleaning up his [censored] for the following reasons: 1. no sign 2. courtyard gets 0 foot traffic/ bc it's dirt and monkey grass, absolutely no one walks through there. 3. everyone elses dog [censored] in the courtyard 4. i've never seen anyone cleaning [censored] up from the courtyard 5. i [censored] hate these people who run these apartments, they think they're some sort of nazi apartment group. Is this borderline, in a social regard? If you're a dog owner, what do you think? Non dog owner? |

I think it's pretty standard to pick up after your dog, sign or no sign.

You shouldn't own a dog.
amazing kreskin prediction: Tx is going to be rightfully berated and called a douche bag by everyone, yet he wont heed a word. |

Dog owner here. With regard to the social aspect, I can see your point. Nevertheless, you should clean it up. It's your dog, your responsibility.
That being said, I know how you feel. We have an area where most of the dogs in the neighborhood are taken to crap, and it pisses me off when I have to clean up after my dog while dodging 53 piles of [censored] left from every other dog. Still, you should probably do it too, if for no other reason than avoiding a fine, which it sounds like that lady would love to ding you with. |

I always pick up after my dog whether there is a sign or not. Plastic bags are stored in the same drawer as the dog's leash - this is pretty standard IMO.
I've stepped in dog [censored] more than once due to owners who were too lazy to pick up after the dogs. Depending on my mood I may have called you on it as well. Your judgment may be clouded because you think the chick is a huge bitch. |

Do you have a sign telling you to flush your poop?
