It is costly and not always possible to remove the stains and odor left behind, prompting some property owners to replace gates and fences. The walkers insist they are under no obligation to provide proof of business licenses, dog licenses or vaccination information. Don’t the dog walkers have to provide their business licenses, dog licenses and vaccination information if asked? Owners can also start documenting the dog walkers’ activities, including photographing or videotaping those who violate the law and any damage they cause. While it may be worth telling these dog walkers to clean up any mess they create, it is not worth getting into an aggressive confrontation.
