Our team have seen a LOT of complaints on social media community groups recently about irresponsible dog owners/walkers not picking up after their dogs.

So we'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter... dog mess is not nice at all, nor should it be left for others to wander past it, stand in it or potentially have their young child pick it up in their hands. But here in Dubai, is it right for complaints to go directly to community management and security? Should the suspected dog mess leaver be confronted first in a mature, respectful way before it's escalated to higher authorities? Do our communities in Dubai need to do more, especially those of us who have dogs, to help ensure all dog walkers/owners are responsible and clean-up after their pooches?

We want to know your thoughts.

I think it is just common courtesy for people to pick up after their dogs. It just makes the public spaces more enjoyable for EVERYONE. if you don't clean up after your dog then you most probably deserve to be reported. But please keep it civil - no need to make a big scene and freak out, from either sides.
