You must have noticed how much dog poop there is lying around on the sidewalks

I can only imagine what the Nature Bay Foreshore Trail would look like if it had been open this past winter.

No, belay that. I don’t want to imagine it if the state of the sidewalks around Blackburn Park are any indication of the mindset of Salmon Arm’s dog owners. Disgusting.

By extrapolation, I would not be surprised to learn the same dismal situation exists in other areas of town.

Why is it so difficult to ‘be prepared’ and pick up after your dogs?

You must have noticed how much dog poop there is lying around on the sidewalks you regularly travel with your dogs now that the snow is gone?

Come on, people. Show some consideration for your fellow citizens and pick up your dog’s do-do. Please.
