    "I feel like we are a dog loving community as there are so good dog walking shops most places wouldn’t kick you out if you had a small dog with you (maybe a big one they would) but you can walk your dogs on the Gries trail and there are usually poop bags available in the dispensers with a trash can, but they are out a lot of the time because its a popular spot to walk dogs.
