Richmond History Center walking tour of Church Hill (with dogs!)
04/19/2011 8:43 AM by John M
A Church Hill Walking Tour this Saturday from the folks at the Valentine Richmond History Center:
HISTORY HOUNDS EXPLORE CHURCH HILL Dogs are invited to join their owners for this walking tour of Church Hill, in partnership with the SPCA. Dogs must have current shots, mix well with others and remain on a leash. Owners are responsible for water and cleaning up after their dogs.
Meet at Patrick Henry Park across from St. John’s Church, E. Broad and 24th streets. Reservations are required: 649-0711 ext. 301. Space is limited. April 23 (10am – 12pm)
Great, more dog crap on our side walks, tree bases and gardens!
I am a pet owner and love all animals but it is quite aggravating to have to clean up after someone else’s dogs. Besides, I am sure people are unaware that there is a $250 fine for not cleaning up behind them! Our sidewalks are on the paths of people who are dog walkers and for more than half, I never see any ways or means of their cleaning up behind them.
Richmond Code §10-86

and air tight. Contact Richmond Animal

this ordinance is a Class 4 misdemeanor ($250 fine).
