I haven't got a dog, but I would, unless I was in a field etc.

Yes, I am older than dirt, and I still pick up at least 12 piles per day..
there is never a good excuse not to..
I'm a pretty peaceable person, but if I see someone leaving poo, I go wag my finger in their face, and try to embarrass the heck out of them...lol

Yes. To not do so is unsanitary and also irresponsible and gives dog owners a bad name.
I also volunteer every spring cleaning up after irresponsible pet owners that use a park trail near my home. I have a 5 gallon pail that has a thermometer that I color in each year showing how much poo I have cleaned up along a small section. I call it the "Poopy Patrol" It is common that I collect over 15 gallons of dog poo in a 1/4 mile span on the trail. Many people stop and thank me for being responsible and helping to keep their walking path beautiful.
I know that other pets waste is not your responsiblity, by hey let's keep our privelages to have our dogs in our parks. Clean up after your own dog and volunteer an afternoon to make the park you and your dog enjoys a prettier, more enjoyable place. It raises awareness and no one will be irresponsible while you are seen out doing some community service.

Saying you would unless you were in a field is funny.
Noone picks up their dog poo all the time as dogs poo up bushes and in long grass and you can't always find it!

Yes I do, simply because I wouldn't want to walk in dog poo myself, were I live there's a junior/infant school close by and there are moms with prams, can you imagine kids falling or putting their hands in dog poo or the pram wheels going through it, gross, its not fair leaving it for others to walk through and as a responsible dog owner I clean up after my dog.

We always pick it up. I hate it when I see dog poo everywhere and it makes me relly angry. I am sure that the people that dont pick it up wouldnt be happy if they stood in it or it went all over there kids school shoes etc. People who dont pick up there dogs poo should never be allowed to keep a dog in the first place.

Yes I do 99% of the time. The only time I don't is if my dog poohs amongst stinging nettles, which is hard to pick up without avoid getting stung! It really annoys me when I see other people not picking their dog's pooh up-especially when their dog has just messed in the middle of a footpath, or other obvious place that someone is going to walk in.

99% of the time. The ONLY time I don't is when I can't find it! Which is especially hard this time of year with the leaves and when it's dark out! But you should just because... think how IRRITATING and disgusting it is when YOU step in it! It's horrible. And it also spreads disease and parasites to dogs AND humans! So, pick it up! It's better for everyone.
