Andover MA Public Works

🐾 Red, White & Scoop! 🚫💩
Today, we present Sadie, our latest addition to the Dogs of Andover Photo Album! Her human has pledged to always scoop the p**p and dispose of it properly.
Whether you're celebrating the Fourth with a backyard BBQ, a trip to the park, or a neighborhood walk with your pup, don't forget the p**p bags!

Showing your community pride means keeping our parks, sidewalks, and neighborhoods clean. When pet waste is left behind, summer rain can wash it into storm drains, where it flows untreated into our streams, ponds, and rivers. 😮💧
Celebrate responsibly by scooping it, bagging it, and disposing of it in a public trash receptacle or taking it home. Please don't leave bagged waste on the ground, toss it into a storm drain, or place it in someone else's trash bin.

Remember, cleaning up after your pet—and always carrying a means to remove their waste—is required under Andover's Article XII, Section 11.

This Independence Day, let's keep our parks sparkling, our waterways clean, and our community something to celebrate. ❤️🤍💙

Take the Scoop the P**p Pledge and share photos of your patriotic pup at https://AndoverMA.gov/Dogs!

⚽🐾 Score One for Clean Water!
Meet today's MVP (Most Valuable Pup), Bruno, our latest addition to the Dogs of Andover Photo Album. Whether your four-legged striker is chasing a soccer ball or dribbling through the dog park, don't forget to scoop the p**p as Bruno’s “coach” has pledged to do!

When rain falls or snow melts, waste left on sidewalks, parks, and trails can be carried into storm drains, where it flows UNTREATED into local streams, ponds, and rivers. 😮💧

Fortunately, keeping our waterways clean is an easy win. Just bag it, bin it, and help your pup stay at the top of the standings!
