Scoop your dog poop, please
This message is for all those people who have the privilege of walking their dogs along the old railway station trail in Bourget. It is a lovely walk, and families with children on their bikes, on foot, and in strollers, also enjoy this beautifully maintained trail. Unfortunately, the grass beside the trail is littered with dog poop, left behind by people who can’t be bothered to pick it up. I recently acquired a puppy that I frequentlywalk along this trail. It is disgusting to see what irresponsible dog owners are
doing to it. When I see someone not picking up their dog’s poop, they tell me they forgot their bags at home. So I give themone.They are not expensive. You can buy several rolls of bags at the dollar stores. I understand that renovations will soon begin on the old train station, and that it will become a tourist attraction for Bourget, bringing in some people, perhaps for the first time, andmaybe leading them to spend money at some of our local businesses. I have also heard a rumour that the trail may be closed to dogs due to the accumulation of filth these tourists would otherwise be forced to walk in. Come on, people! You knowwho you are. Please don’t jeopardize your own chance of losing the privilege of walking your dog on this trail. Do the responsible thing and pick up your dog’s poop!
