glsmithersParticipantI know every neighborhood has this problem, but this is for the Arbor Heights area. There are a few people that live in this neighborhood that don’t pick up after their dogs. It’s not that they forgot the bag, they are just lazy worthless piles of crap, like what they leave behind.
It’s illegal, it’s a $54 fine and if your dog isn’t licensed and up to date on their shots, then the fine keeps increasing.
If you see somebody purposefully leaving their dog crap in the area and you know where they live you can report them to Animal Control. Take a picture and report their address or license plate. Sick of selfish worthless people and personally cleaning up after your dogs because you are too lazy to do so. You don’t deserve a pet. . .January 8, 2026 at 11:58 pm #1139156
ManderleyParticipantThis is a SEATTLE-wide problem. Not sure why dog owners think the entire outdoors is their own personal toilet bowl, but hopefully they’ll get what’s coming to them. I woke up this morning to someone who had let their “precious fur baby” drop a load right in front of the sign outside my house that says “please pick up after your dog.” Nine times out of ten, it’s because they’re not paying attention to the dog, because their head is buried in their cell phone.

RatsParticipantI’ve seen these posts and comments for about 20 years. I wonder what the disconnect is? Maybe it is the phone/being inattentive. Owners are required to be in control of their dog but dogs bark like crazy in yards all around me. There is a law against it, same with scoop violations, and leash laws. Please train your dog or go to obedience school to curb the barking. Dogs aren’t plug and play or buy it then that’s it. There’s more to pet ownership and the shelter or kennel or pet store isn’t explaining it to new owners. The lack of city enforcement sends the wrong message.
