[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where do y'all live that there's 20 pages of discussion on this? In MoCo, it's law:

Animal Defecation (“pooper scooper” law) (Montgomery County Code, Sec. 5-203(a)(2)) -

An owner must not allow an animal to damage or defecate on property outside of the owner’s property. An animal may defecate on public property or the common area of property in which the owner shares an interest if the owner immediately removes and disposes of the feces by a sanitary method approved by the Director. Feces may be picked up in a plastic bag. If this bag is placed inside another plastic bag, it may be put out for disposal in your normal household trash. ($100 fine)

Animal Trespass (Montgomery County Code, Sec. 5-203(a)(3)) -

An owner must not allow an animal to enter private property without the property owner’s permission. ($100 fine)

A note: that first bit about the bag-in-a-bag means it's illegal here to dump your single-bagged dog bombs in someone else's trash can, since that's also an issue on this board.[/quote]

But no cop would enforce that. It’s just for cases of harassment.

How do you even know a dog has pooped if it’s been picked up?[/quote]
