    "the are a lot of dog owners in the area and they use the neighborhood park for their dogs. unfortunately it is at the detriment to the kids in the neighborhood as the park always has a ton of dog poop so not even the little league likes to use it despite having two baseball diamonds. it would be nice if dog owners were courteous and used the back of the field as opposed to letting their dogs rome on the actual youth fields..."
