Dog waste poses threat to water
By Traci Watson, USA TODAY

Pick up and discard dog droppings from turf areas. The droppings will
burn grass plants if left for an extended period of time.

Make it a habit of regularly picking up your dog's droppings, or
harmful bacteria will grow on it.

Besides drawing flies and stinking.

The flies that land on your dog's **** also land on you,your kids and your
food(if picnicking,barbecuing).

If you spray the crap with water and it disintegrates there aren't any
flies, imo.
