More serious things to worry about than dog waste

Independent Newsmedia

I am writing in response to the man who wrote about dogs doing their business in his yard.

A long time ago, people didn’t even bother to pick up dog poop, but most people have been committed to doing it for years, and he still complains? And if he’s worried about a speck of dog poop being in his yard after the owner picks it up, then he must not be able to sleep at night worrying about birds, rabbits and javelina doing their business in his yard.

It’s rock, not a perfectly manicured golf course. Who cares if animals pee on it? Eventually it rains, and he should be able to breathe again.

With all the serious things to worry about in this world (wars, famine, getting cancer, etc.) it seems like this man has too much time on his hands. Maybe he needs to take advantage of all of the things Sun City West has to offer and be thankful that he lives in such a nice community! Just my opinion.
