One Small Step for a Better World: Scoop the Poop

Despite the proliferation of kids' books like Everyone Poops, the subject of, well, poop, as a topic of conversation makes many people uncomfortable. But the simple fact is that dog poop left unscooped is a health and environmental hazard (not to mention unpleasant to the eye, nose, and foot). Picking up your dog's waste, whether during a neighborhood walk, a stroll on the beach, or a hike in the woods, prevents contamination of water supplies, the spread of disease, and harm to people, plants, other animals, and habitats. Plus it helps make the world that more beautiful. All great reasons to pack a bag or two and scoop the poop!
