Man's best friend

What is the deal with Alabama and no dogs on the beach.

We had a couple of days to get rebaptized in salt water and soak some bait.

We picked up our baby girl from college and headed for the beach. We brought her dog along because she had not seen it since Christmas.
Bad idea if you want to fish off the beach in Alabama and western Florida.
NO PETS ALLOWED
Ended up going to Dauphin Island and had a great time.
Somebody need to put that on the Alabama tourism sight.
You'all come on down to the beach but leave Fido at home.
I caught a nice redfish off the end of the fishing pier beach over there.
Never seen a pier that does not make it all the way to the water.
Nice place and the weather was great.

Pet feces are a health issue. Too many animal owners use the beach as their pet's personal litter box without a thought to pooper scooping behind them. Ever stepped barefoot on a fresh dog turd?

A good friend of mine is a UPS man.
He said he delivered a package to a lady in a big fancy house and cut across the sloped manicured lawn to the truck. He did not see the big dog turd and slipped and fell and slid down the hill in the poop.
He got up and saw the lady laughing at him from the front door.

another case of punishing all for the actions of a few.

I don't disagree.
BTW - prolly should have posted this on "Off Topic" board.

sounds like his own fault for taking a short cut, that is way different then a public beach....and actually..... I might have been laughing too....I know to watch my step when I enter my back yard from the treasures the boys leave for us...... till it's picked up

next time there is a dog beach down in Panama city for the pets
