I guess I got used to the upturned plastic bags. I enjoy taking my sister’s retriever on those beautiful Mandeville and Westridge hikes, but I don’t think I’ve used the Mutt Mitt.

More than once I have had to navigate my way around a pile of dog pilings just a few yards from one of the machines.

I think its a great idea that was long over due. Its great that people can actually take their dogs out and have designated areas to do their business and clean up afterwards. Definitely a lot less pooh around which is nice. Much easier to to this than try to steer toddlers around mutley's landmines. I’m seeing them all over my area at both city and county parks.

Several local parks do have poop bag dispensers, but I don't think I've ever seen them ON a trail, just near a trail head, parking lot, etc. I know Franklin Canyon has them and I believe Fryman does as well. It's been a while since I've been to Runyan, where I know people not cleaning up is a huge problem. The Chandler Bikeway in Burbank/North Hollywood has bags in a few locations along nearly 3-mile path. And yeah, if only everyone would use them. Nice shot!
