I walk her in and around the 20th Street Loop and my building in dog approved areas. I initially curb trained her but the trucks scared her and she now only pees and poops on dirt - the few dirt areas that are not fenced. I'm in my seventies and without exception clean up after her. As a hound she walks nose to the ground and as a former stray she tries to snack on poop that I have a hard time seeing at night left in piles on the dirt by the entitled. I found out in December that she had lungworm. Lungworm? Not common in the NE. How do dogs get it? Some vets say sniffing lungworm cells off poop and some say from eating poop. Symptoms include coughing and chocking from the larvae living under their throat membranes on their journey to the lungs. Disgusting, right? Serious? Yes. Vet, fecal testing and medication - $500. My dog is one of three that I am aware of, so someone is leaving their dog's infected poop on the ground and infecting other dogs. Get a grip! If you insist on having a dog clean up after it! I have offered doggy bags and been ignored and told off. Stop hiding behind your phone and making believe you didn't see your dog poop - hey - maybe while you're ignoring your dog on that 20 ft. retractable leash it too will eat infected poop as well.

I would be embarrassed to wear such tacky gear and, knowing the reputation the Sty has out in the general community, I would be ashamed! Everywhere I go, if I have to mention where I live I get the "Oh that used to be nice, but now I hear it's a huge student dorm and is horrible."
