Puppy Poop

Aren’t humans supposed to have dignity? During my lifetime, I’ve often heard someone say, "at least I maintained my dignity." Well, they don’t live in our little gated community. What could be less dignified than walking a dog and waiting for it to poop so you can pick it up and carry it home with you?

There are hundreds of people here that have dogs - some big, but mostly small. They walk their dogs around the property and dogs do what dogs do. The "rules" say, you must pickup after your dog. They even have a sign I saw today which displayed a dog with a person behind it bending over with a bag to clean up the mess.

The folks that live here are professional people, mostly retired. It is just hard for me to imagine what would possess them to think that picking up puppy poop is diginified. But, then I would be wrong. I must be because there are so many people that do it.

We no longer have a dog. I don’t want a dog. My financial controller wants a Yorkie.

If you see me picking up after a Yorkie, please shoot me.
