Doggie DNA request riles poop scofflaws

-

Some Florida condo owners are steaming after their homeowners associatio­n asked them to submit their dog’s DNA in order to fine owners who don’t pick up after their pets.

Residents of Harbour Landing in Destin, Fla., said they received a letter last week and some feel it’s an invasion of privacy. The letter asked residents to register their dogs and cats with the associatio­n through a DNA test, citing a significan­t increase in the amount of animal feces found on the property recently.
