Are You a Responsible Dog Owner?

Firstly, do your pets have collars, tags, and chips so they can be identified if lost?

Are your pets current on all vaccinations and proper licensing?

Do you have shelter for outdoor dogs; in the Arizona heat they should have shade.  Is water available at all times? Most importantly, do you pick up after your dog?

Not picking up after your dog is not only irresponsible and offensive to others who share the complex, it is part of the HOA Rules which as a member, you agree to, and can create a health issue not only for other pets, but also for neighbors.

Did you know that it has been estimated that a single gram of dog feces can contain 23 milliion fecal coliform bacteria which is known to cause diarrhea, intestinal illness and serious kidney disorders in humans?

Be courteous to your neighbor.  It’s sorta gross if you aren’t.
