PICKING UP AFTER YOUR PET: WHY IT’S IMPORTANT


Pet waste contains harmful bacteria and diseases. When it rains, uncollected waste gets washed down our storm drains and into local retention basins, rivers, washes, and eventually our drinking water supply. Be a good neighbor and help keep our community clean! Thank you for picking up after your pet.
