To the owners of the Husky-like dog in the Meadowmeer area who let their dog roam overnight here’s something you should know: I have small children who still wear disposable diapers. When they have, shall we say, solid matter in them, we tie them up in a little bag and sometimes toss them out onto our small back-entry porch to await transfer to the trash can in our garage.

Your dog often visits my house about 5 a.m. tears up the bags and spreads the contents across my yard. So the next time your dog comes home, and you say, “There you are – you always come home. Leash laws are so stupid – who needs them? Give Mommy big kisses,” know that your dog has just had a big breakfast of my kids’ poop. Slurp, slurp!
