DOG POOP AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL THREAT. SHOULD WE CARE A LITTLE BIT MORE?

Let's face it, picking up piles of dog poop isn't exactly a pleasant job, and more than one dog owner has certainly had the urge to skip it at some point. The current state of parks and sidewalks is proof that this often happens. Why should irresponsible owners think about their behavior? Not only is dog excrement bad for your soles, it's also bad for the environment. And in addition, did you know that you can be fined up to ten thousand crowns for not cleaning up after a dog?

DOG BANK AS AN OFFENSE

If you are a man or woman who always has at least one in every pocket bag to poop, sick "non-cleaners" surely annoy you. It then casts a bad light on all whistle-blowers - regardless. In the cities, therefore, the police have declared war on unruly dog ​​owners, and they can be fined heavily for their misdeeds . But there is a catch. The officer must catch the person in the act. But this is often impossible, because he can say that he just wanted to jump for the bag. Cities have no choice but to spend large amounts of money on cleaning, which often exceeds the income from dog fees.

IT IS NOT MANURE AS MANURE

But angry residents are only the tip of the iceberg. An untidy pile has other consequences as well. For example many people think they are dogs excrement acts as a fertilizer for the soil . Unlike cow's grass, which is basically just composted grass, it is dog bay is toxic to the soil . Just notice what the grass looks like on which the dog goes to defecate. For the same reason, dog poop would it should not be put in the compost .

CARRIER OF DISEASE

Even if a dog shows no signs of illness, its feces may contain bacteria and parasites that are harmful to other dogs or people. There is no need for you to come into direct contact with excrement , diseases can be transmitted from it by insects or other animals .

UNPLEASANT ODOR

This reason to collect dog bark is right on the nose. We would like to believe that this is clear to most dog owners, but considering how often (and not only) the streets of Prague look, there are probably many unteachable sinners who have not yet realized this. If a dog defecates twice a day in one street, there are fourteen piles in a week. Moreover, theirs the distribution takes up to one month , which suddenly turns an ordinary street into a minefield with a strong abrasion.

LET'S BE CONSIDERABLE

We also think about the factor of consideration not only for other dog owners, but also for all other pedestrians on the street, in the park and in other public places - whether dog owner or non-dog owner, none of us is excited when we step into untidy excrement. There are also those among dogs who like to devote themselves in depth to the piles of their colleagues. And who among us hasn't experienced that our furry friend accidentally steps in an untidy pile (which usually happens to senior dogs or dogs with poor orientation), and it's up to us to wash his paws properly. Let's be considerate, becoming a dog walker also means acquiring new responsibilities.
