Don't those people know that dogs can't read???
Never be afraid to do what\'s right especially if the well being of a person or animal is at stake. Society\'s punishments are small
compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way.

Of course they know that dogs can't read, that's why they have the picture!
This reminds of the sign on the window in my local postoffice that says no dogs except seeing eye dogs...now, who can read that???? It's actually
ignored anyway.

Yeh, it's too bad about La Paz. Not one dog-friendly hotel in the city and now this on the malecon.
The grass is always greener....
and so, there is always a better spot in Baja

invariably this is because of dog poop not being picked up.

you know, theres a popular walk right in front of my house. And i see people every day, look around while their dogs are defecating, to see if any one
sees them......if they might be seen they pick it up, if they dont think anyone sees, they scurry off, leaving a big steaming pile behind them. So i,
stick my head out the back upstairs porch and ask if they need a plastic bag to go back and pick it up! Amusing the responses.....

I have a little Lhasa Apso who only leaves "little" piles .
Always try to have him use the "Loreto Bay" beach.

My sister lives on Bayside Walk in South Mission Beach----her front yard is the beach---------she often tells me that it seems that many of the folks
that live in the non-beachfront homes in South Mission think nothing of BRINGING their dogs to the beach to do their duty, with nary a thought of the
folks that come to the beach to lie there, enjoying the sum after they leave.
To me, these folks are a bit "sick"--------what can they be thinking? THE PROBLEM IS THE IRRESPONSIBILITY OF "DOG OWNERS" THAT CAUSES THESE SIGNS TO
APPEAR.
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?

This topic was posted here several months ago. The irony is that it is probably the stray dogs that are doing the poop and run. Yes, some people are
irresponsible and make it difficult for the rest of us dog owners who are responsible, but on the malecon I think most people will pick up after the
dog because they are so conspicuous.
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.

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!!!!!!

No dogs?
Hmmmm....no people!
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.
I think the world is run by C- students.
