The city's pooper scooper law applies to everyone, even police officers on mounted patrol and K-9 unit duty -- but a new statute may allow them to start leaving the evidence behind...the change is meant to allow officers in the saddle or partnered with canines to patrol events such as University of Wisconsin football games without having to stop to pick up droppings like civilian pet owners.
I can envision the scenario now--a mounted "Only One" writing a ticket against a citizen pet owner while his patrol horse evacuates. Or maybe they could sic their K-9 partner on them right after its done with its business.
Either way, this seems yet another example of rubbing...uh...special privileges in our faces.
