Is dog poop bad for the environment?

It is. What's left on the lawn doesn't stay there; rain and snowmelt carry it downstream.

The short answer

Is dog poop bad for the environment?

Yes. Dog waste carries bacteria and nutrients that rain and snowmelt can wash into storm drains, which flow to local creeks without treatment. Bagging waste and putting it in the trash helps keep it out of Fountain Creek and other Southern Colorado waterways.

How it gets downstream

Afternoon storms and spring snowmelt wash across yards, sidewalks, and gutters. Waste left on the ground goes with the water into storm drains.

Questions people ask

Is it okay to leave dog poop in the yard to break down?

It's best not to. It doesn't work as fertilizer and can wash into storm drains and creeks.

Can you service pet waste stations in my neighborhood?

Yes. We clean common areas and install and service pet waste stations for HOAs and apartments.
