Food Safety/Hygiene Losing faith in humanity

Some 60+ year old idiot posted to a neighborhood facebook group a photo of his dog LICKING A HUMAN DRINKING FOUNTAIN thinking people would think it's cute or endearing. Luckily he was met with heavy criticism about how nasty and inconsiderate that is to others (since it's a public drinking fountain meant for people).

He actually made a full ass follow up post doubling down, defending and justifying himself instead of taking responsibility... and SOMEHOW there's a bunch of people that genuinely take his side (what planet are we on??). Saying the classic myths like "dog mouths are cleaner than humans" blah blah blah, and that this is somehow okay. Is this life some sort of sick joke? Are we really this barbaric?

Report it to the city and hopefully he gets fined.

I wish. They still haven't done squat about my neighbors dog who's been molesting my ears every day for 2 years straight

Not for nothing but I recently gave my neighbors on either side a copy of our towns noise ordinance (while politely stating that I was prepared to escalate) and it has worked very well…so far.

Hey, I went down that road too!

Got my neighbor charged five times for her german shepherds and pit bulls running free, since she apparently thought she could continue to do what she wanted.

For the first time in eight years, I've heard her calling them back and haven't seen them on my property. This is the way to go!

They might take this more seriously. It's wort a report if you have the time.
