Description

Eventually I reach my destination. I've started my walk in Thun and now I am in Unterseen, part of Interlaken, after enjoying every single kilometer of these 22 kilometers (13.7 miles). Here I find a place where dogs can leave their body-fluids. The pole makes me smile, we have the Dutch expression pee-pole that actually means scape-goat. Swiss people like to organise many things and this sign is new for me. Minolta X-700 (Fuji Sensia 100, 35 mm and slightly cropped) Thanks for your attention and your always valuable comments

I hope you didn't walk 22 kilometers just to get to that sign. If so, I'm glad you took the picture before you made the snow yellow. :-)

Nice shot, Jan-Carel. In Rouken Glen park, in a lovely suburb south of Glasgow, they have a little fenced off field for the use of the dogs, at the entrance to the public park. There is a lovely buterfly house and a secluded stream with kingfishers within the park too, if I remember. In Scotland, in many places, especially where children play, local authorities can put up signs warning owners to clean up after their pets. It is a criminal offence if they are caught not doing so !! There are bins mounted on lighting poles, in which the bags of poop can be disposed of.!! In addition if an owner / dogwalker is unable to control their dog from excessive barking, jumping up on people out on the street or other public place, this is also a criminal offence.

A pissing post? That's hilarious! I'll bet the dogs would really prefer a tree or a hydrant, either of those would serve more than one function as well. Those silly Suisse! You gotta love them! Thanks for the chuckle Jan, I love the capture!
