The least they could have done is to put up the posts with plastic bags and a container, like Packoderm showed.

There are enough reasons to not come to Baja and spend our money. For sure, La Paz is a city I will not visit again. It is sad because I and my dog Paco loved that malecon.:(


Tony, Tony, Tony-------------

It is the responsibility of the DOG OWNERS, not the city, to provide whatever is needed to "take care" of their dogs needs---------why is this so hard to comprehend??? I cannot believe that folks actually think that the CITY should spend Taxpayer money to provide services to the few irresponsible folks that let their dogs run wild, or contaminate the streets and lawns.

Good grief!!!!!!

Barry, "true" means I agree with you. (about irresponsible dog owners). Regarding the City providing.....taxes are supposed to go for amenities that make people's lives better. We shouldn't all be punished for the transgressions of the few.

Haven't really noticed any fewer leashed dogs on the malecon and there are usually several unleashed ones running around. Not even sure how many signs are posted, but not many and doesn't seem to be any effort at enforcement.


Hmmmmmm. Where did everybody go? Nice photos, by the way.

Sorry Tony, we crossed posted before I saw your post agreeing with my point on irresponsible dog owners.

But, I still don't understand why you think that the City should provide items/amenities for the very few folks that forget to bring doggy litter bags (or don't really care, and therefore won't use the bags anyway)---------maybe it has to do with how each of us (you and I?) approaches situations and issues differently. People with disabilities is one thing----able bodied folks that are simply careless (or worse) are another------taxes spent for the former make sense, for the latter I don't think so.

Well, I guess I am used to them in California. I appreciate them and I usually take a bag to back up one I have in my pocket. They are still ignored by some, but not all. I would rather La Paz would try them or some civic organization sponsor them before they ban the dogs.
