Dog poop is toxic to the environment Pet waste that is left on the ground does not just disappear. Dog waste will slowly “fade away” over time by becoming part of the soil or washing into the waterways when it rains. But don’t assume it’s totally gone. As the waste disintegrates, it breaks apart into small particles. Those particles of dog poop wash into our creeks and streams. Ultimately into our rivers when it rains. Dog waste is very nutrient-rich. Unfortunately, these particular “nutrient-rich deposits” cause rapid algae growth. Abundant algae blooms block sunlight and deplete oxygen in the water. Which kills off aquatic organisms, especially fish. Even for those who are not concerned about the environment, there is one more reason to keep pet waste off the ground and out of our waterways – our own personal health. The bacteria in dog feces wash into our creeks, streams and rivers can cause serious illness in humans, including cholera and dysentery.
