It’s a shame when dogs can’t go to the bathroom on a grassy patch in front of their own homes without fearing that their people will get slapped with a hefty ticket if they don’t dash over immediately to clean it up.

A pregnant — in fact, overdue — woman in NY got a  $250 ticket this week when she didn’t make a beeline for the pile o’ poo her 13-year-old dog, Kimmy, made in a bit of grass in front of her house. Perhaps to the poo patrol officer, it looked like Alicia Fernbacker didn’t give a crap about her dog’s deed. But Fernbacker tells they NY Daily News that she was just taking a breather before going inside to get a tissue.

(Er, a tissue? Alicia dear, you have obviously not scooped your share of poo in  your 19 years. Tissue is just not up to the task, especially for a big dog like yours. It’s simply not what you use. Particularly when you read in the story below that we dogs have all kinds of terrible paraphernalia or whatever they call it in our excrement.)

This citation is full of @#$%. We hope Alicia beats this bum ticket and doesn’t have to take $250 out of her baby supply money to pay for this travesty. By the way, she is finally a mama. She had her baby yesterday, some 14 days after her due date.
