My wife, daughter, and myself live in an apartment complex built in 2008 and we like it here. It is quiet, rent is not bad, living expenses are reasonable, etc. the higher ups who own many properties in many states have decided to implement a new program called Poo Prints. The idea is to make sure dog owners pick up after our pets when they go poo. To make sure we as dog owners keep the place poo free we have to take our dog to the office at a set time and have the dog DNA checked and a picture taken by a company rep. Now if poo is found on the property it will be sent in for a Poo Prints DNA match. If it matches your dog it is a one time warning and a $500 fine each time after. I do not like this at all. To me this is going a bit far in advising us to clean up after our dogs. I wonder if the program will work or be a flop? I clean up after our dog and do not need a scare tactic to do so. What a world. LOL

I saw a feature about this on the news, and I support it. I hate the way that many owners allow dogs to behave , and some are pretty aggressive, especially if the owner ignores the leash law. And their mess is also aggravating.

I know that you mutt lovers love your pets, but so many are irresponsible with them that I get pretty fed up with dogs. I've had a gun out a few times when I thought that I was about to have to shoot a person. But the closest that I've come to shooting anything in a non-sporting context was when a big Rottweiler (sp?) on an apartment balcony almost came over the rail at me as I walked past below. I was as afraid as I've been, even as much as when a big S -Class Mercedes almost T-boned me as the driver ran a red light. That dog was destined to feel the effects of a Federal 158 grain Hydra-Shok .357 bullet as soon as its feet touched ground if it left that balcony!

Honestly, I wish that a great many dogs (and their owners) would have a close encounter of the leopard kind.

That said, I do sort of like to see a good setter work a field for birds.

Now that's a job I wouldn't want: poo detective! :D

At first, I thought it sounded a bit extreme, but if pet owners don't voluntarily cooperate, how else can the property management enforce the rules? One thing it will do is eliminate (no pun intended) any false accusations against your dog.
 
Keep in mind that the alternative is probably banning dogs altogether in that apartment complex.

As for the member who thinks that I need a "sweet creature" and need to lighten up, I make many posts that show that I have a sense of humor. My idea of a sweet creature is a friendly Victoria's Secret model or a donut. :D

See: I lightened up.

BTW, my brother did have to shoot a big dog that came at him in his front yard, despite many prior complaints about said dog from neighbors to police and Animal Control. And, yes, I did have dogs as a boy. One was a sweet creature, but the other was poorly behaved and kept getting out of our fence and ravaging neighbors' gardens and chasing their pets. That's a 50% success rate. I'd say that it's pretty common.
 
I own 2 dogs. Always clean up after them but occasionally one, or both, spring a surprise 2nd poo and usually im not prepared for it so i just let it be but that happens once a year or so.

Anyway, im all for clean grass and what not but im not getting my dog DNA'd for poop.

I want to know when did dog doo become toxic waste. How did we survive in the dark ages when nobody walked around with little bags of **** while they walked their dogs. In northern NJ we have a tremendous black bear problem and contrary to the myth about bears in the woods I can tell you the usually do it in somebody's front yard and it's a pile little bigger than the average pooch and nobody is bagging that up.
 
So who's gonna pay for all this foolishness? Me, what I'd do is borrow a black lab-get him DNA'ed and then let Angus poop his little guts out with impunity:D
I'm sorry-but as much as I hate somebody letting his dog poop on my lawn-this is absolutely hysterical.

What do do for a living with that PhD in bio-chemical-DNA analysis that you worked for 10 years to get and spent half a million dollars for?
Why, I DNA test Dog poop. Mom is so proud and Dad just slit his wrists.

What do do in your position as assistant manager of the HOC.
Why I'm in charge of maintaining the dog poop data base. I have interns from Texas A&M that actually scoop it up, bag it and deliver it.

"I'm sorry-but unless you can establish a clear chain of custody-that poop is inadmissible.

Say, have you field tested that poop? Might be human-if it is we're screwed.

Oh my, good thing I saw this before I started drinking!
 
i would just ask then when its your turn? after they give you a puzzled look tell them i just cant control myself around the "X" bush or tree near "X location" LOL...
 
I have been told by family to get our dogs sister and have her DNA and picture taken that way our dog can not be traced. LOL. However that is playing dirty pool and not honest, but a fun idea.
 
Holy scatology -- a new Sherlock Holmes thriller --

Sherlock, when asked how he caught the offending pooch, stated:

"Excrementally, my dear".:D

I would engage in guerilla warfare:

Go to a nearby park with plastic baggies and gather about 10 or 12 different bags of dog poop. Everyday, pick up your dog's poop but late at night, leave some of the park poop in a prominent place (where it will be seen, collected and tested) -- it will drive them crazy that they will not get matches with their database. Do that 10 or 12 nights.:cool:

Then, find a friend with a horse or pony, and leave some small clumps of horse and pony poop, and if you have a friend with a Vietnamese pot-belly pig, borrow some pig poo to leave at night.:eek:

The apartment management will be driving themselves crazy trying to figure out where those animals are living in their complex.
 
Well, if anyone was wondering what Paul Blart was going to do after his mall cop gig, now we know. Paul Blart, Poo Detective.
