Pet Waste - Bag It & Trash It

Did you know pet waste contains harmful organisms like E.coli, Giardia and roundworms? These can easily be tracked indoors on paws, shoes and flies when pet waste is not picked up. Pets and children who play outside and adults who garden are at the greatest risk of infection.

When it rains, pet waste gets washed into nearby streams, lakes and Puget Sound. The organisms in dog waste impact the health of our waters, shellfish harvesting and recreational activities.

What Can We Do?
  • Scoop and trash your dog's waste every time.
  • On walks, bring extra bags - scoop it and trash it.
  • Sponsor a free neighborhood pet waste station.
Free Pet Waste Stations
Available to neighborhoods, businesses, churches and schools where there is a pet waste problem. The following supplies are provided at no cost to you:
  • Weather-proof signs
  • Pet waste bag dispenser
  • Supply of 500 bags
