There will always be people who just let their animals prowl the neighborhood to do their business whereever, and of course coyotes, but anyone who walks their dog and doesn't pick up after them is just rude. They wouldn't want dogs dropping their business all in their yard. And a park that furnishes the bags is a real blessing. No valid excuse for these people. If I saw it happen I'd offer them a bag out of my pocket and ask them to look after their pet. If they open their mouth to you, then just consider the source. The potty bags are fairly expensive in the petshops so what I did was ask the grocery store how much they'd charge for a full roll of the produce bags, and the petshop potty bags can't hold much whereas the produce bags can contain a whole walks' worth. My grocery store charged $5 for the roll and it's lasted the good part of a year and we walk about 3 times a day.
