Stool ain't cool all over the roads. Paa'Ko dogs are dropping "mother-loads".
Pile upon pile of stinky, squishy poop --  thanks to those of you too lazy to scoop.
Step after step, it's hard to ignore, all the crap that's become an outdoor eyesore.
Even the wildlife all know it's not proper, to squat on the shoulder and leave a big "dropper".
To all who keep trying to justify why, to them, the set rules just never apply -- 
you're not more special than the next one along, and should you so think, then you've got it all wrong.
Everyone likes to enjoy their beautiful yards, without looking out to see lots of dog poop "shards".
So, think of your neighbors, and not just you, when you're walking your dog, please pick up its poo!!

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE -it's no laughing matter.  A resident, with a corner lot (who asked that a notice be put in newsletter), just this week alone, picked up over 130 individual piles of dog poop along the two sides of street bordering his property. 

Thought I'd share some of the more interesting reasons that have been told to me over the years for not picking up poop:
   “I’m grandfathered in because I’ve lived here since the beginning when you didn’t have to do that”.
   "All the wild animals poop outside and no one picks their poop up”. 
   "I have a bad hip, so I can't bend over".
   "I left my poop bags in my purse". 
   "My dog has diarrhea and I didn't have time to grab my bags".
   "I have a little dog, so his poop's small".

Please be a responsible pet owner!   :-)

Complaints have come in regarding "Poop on the Loop".  Chaco Loop has long had the reputation of ranking high on the "MOST DOG-POOPED FILLED STREETS" list in Paa-Ko.  Several other streets are right up there, too.  You can't walk 20 steps without seeing numerous piles of dog poop, but this might just put Chaco at the top of the list. 

Numerous poop bags have been piling up behind a Roger Cox FOR SALE sign on a vacant lot just east of 13 Chaco Loop.  And, yes,  there just happens to be a picture.  Click on READ MORE and go to DOCUMENTS to see it.

This is ugly and disgusting and gross for our community.  The same can be said for leaving poop on the ground after your dog defecates that others have to maneuver around.  Please be a considerate neighbor and a responsible dog owner.  Everyone needs to do their part to keep Paa-Ko clean.  

It is the law that you pick up after your dog (dogs cannot do it themselves), then take the bag home and deposit in your garbage can.  And, YES, this rule applies to all dog owners without exception.  Several culprits names have been brought up, so, if this is you, please go clean up this mess and dispose of it properly.

If your dog poops, and no one is watching, you still need to pick it up!   THERE IS NO PAA-KO POOP FAIRY!!
