PHILADELPHIA - Some neighbors and families in South Philadelphia want to get to the bottom of dog waste that is being left behind daily."Watch out for the dog poop!
Watch out for the dog poop!" said one parent who wishes to remain anonymous. "Parents are always talking about how their kids are stepping in dog poop every day.
It’s just hard to always dodge it. There’s so much, it kind of becomes a gauntlet."Nancy Armstrong told us the pet waste is usually along Federal Street and S 10th Street next to Capitolo Playground.We asked: "Have you stepped in it, or any of your family members?""My kids do, and then don’t always realize and then track it in the house," said Armstrong. "I have two young boys who run around and have to always be careful, and because it’s disgusting.
It’s bad for people’s health, it’s ugly and it’s gross."Her son Isaac, 7, said it’s been hard to dodge during their walks to and from school and to the playground."I keep seeing it.
