REMINDER: Leash & Poop Scoop Laws

Just sharing a note that Jill forward to the community via email last week. -- B.J.


I am passing along an email from a fellow resident. Please read and be respectful of your neighbor's property when walking your dogs around the neighborhood.

Thank you,

Dear Association,

I am a resident on Oberwood Dr. and their has been a recurrent issue that I have been dealing with, four times to be exact. Someone has been walking their dog without a leash and allowing it to defecate in my front yard, in the bushes along the driveway.

I am asking you to please send out a copy of the leash and poop scoop law which can be printed out from the charmeck.org website - under animal control - to all the neighbors and remind them that it is against the law to walk your dog without a leash and not pick up poop.

It would be easier to just call animal control but as a courteous neighbor I feel this individual may not be aware of the law. I would appreciate it, it's getting really tiresome picking up after such a callous non-caring dog owner's crap.
