National Scoop The Poop Week


DON'T BE A PARTY POOPER, USE A SCOOPER


Many people are always on the lookout for ways that they can live a more eco-friendly life. If you fall into this category, or even if you want to do some good this week, I urge you to participate in National Scoop The Poop Week. It's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it!

During National Scoop The Poop Week, dog-owners and dog-less citizens alike are urged to proactively scoop up any pet poop that they find lying around parks, streets, and other recreational sites. Each year many dog owners fail to pick up after their pets, allowing the resulting waste to build up and contaminate our drinking water with harmful bacteria.

If everyone does their part to clean up some extra poop during this week, hopefully we can help to avoid this situation and keep our water fresh and drinkable!
