I would add scooping dog shit is another test. There are people out there who will bag the shit and then leave the bag on the ground for the poop to steam in for a few days before they put another bag right next to it to keep it company.

Which is worse, the ones that leave a bag (perhaps unintentionally) or the ones that just don't bother with the responsibility at all? When I had a dog I not only would clean up behind him, I would leave the bag untied until the end to capture what I could of the inevitable left piles I would run across. I'm sure cart return, dog poop, fast food containers, and the old cigarette butts are all under some human psychology grouping of ego superiority.

I think leaving the bag is worse. When it is just poop, maybe the dog ran out of sight or was loose or the walker ran out of bags or whatever. When it is bagged, a human made a decision to scoop it and then leave it on purpose.

Both are bad but bagged shows intention.
