Royalmount to ban dogs
Royalmount is now banning dogs after people allowed their animals to relieve themselves in the mall and didn’t pick up after them. Who does that?

the same people who go to a food court and leave their trays full of rubbish on the table when there is a station with garbage/recycle/tray deposit not 10m away
or the same people who blow their noses on the street and toss the soiled Kleenex on the ground without a second thought, sometimes literally on the feet the person standing next to them
I am not saying that public corporal punishment for littering is a good thing, but I am saying I understand why some places decided to implement it…

I wonder about the turd-leaving dog walkers who travel the same routes every day… are you not disgusted, especially in the spring?

I wouldn’t even consider it sanitary—even when they clean it up.

People used to have dogs and just leave them at home sometimes. I don’t mind if SOME cafes and terrasses are dog friendly as long as there are some that aren’t, but your pets do not belong in malls, or grocery stores, or pharmacies, or bakeries, etc. (Freestanding pet stores are fine.)

And yet when I shit in a mall food court it’s “bad” and “wrong” and “I am never allowed back” whether Ipick up after myself or not. /s
