Palmbeachpost - If your pooch poops, you pay. Plagued with pets that do business in all the wrong places, dog owners in the Village of Abacoa, a condominium association of 458 units, must pay a $200 fee starting Aug. 1. The money will pay DNA Pet World Registry to take the dog's genetic fingerprint and keep the information on file. Doggie droppings found in condo common areas will be collected and mailed in a plastic tube to the Knoxville, Tenn.-based company. If the poop matches the pooch, the owners can be fined up to $1,000. If they don't pay, a lien can be placed on their home, said Susan Nellen, property manager for Versa Property Management, which manages the condo near Roger Dean Stadium. More News New Mexico

What a crappy policy. Don't like your neighbor who happens to own a pet? The collection of fecal matter for framing sounds extremely plausible in this community. I wonder what the penalty is for collecting fecal matter from pets to framing an unsuspecting pooch and his financially liable owner? Anti-pet residents could easily disburse a "sample" here and there to minimize the number of pet owners residing in this community? Are we looking at the possibility of a new constitutional amendment?
