This so they can fine you when you leave your dog’s shit on the ground for other people to step in. I’m here for it. I lived in a place that did not enforce picking up after your animals and it was absolutely disgusting.
They don't do that at all anyway, but hey at least the professional landlord class gets to inflict upon you one more indignity for some imagined benefit.
The park adjacent to those buildings has so much dog turd in it you'd think they were purposely producing low quality fertilizer over there.
For the record I'm not actually pro "leave your dog shit everywhere" I just question both the imposition of the indignity of subjecting your tenants to pet DNA screening, and the effectiveness of it as a mechanism for preventing that.
I actually am pro throw unbagged dog shit in a bag-containing garbage can though, and don't really understand why anyone would care about that.
I tend to see more of the leaving it on the ground, not even the throwing it in a can.
Edit: Alright, you guys are right, you need at least 2 layers of bags for dog shit. But then I guess triples might be safer, or even quads. Fuck it, every piece of dog shit must be wrapped in at least twenty layers of plastic before it hits the landfill! We need to preserve the remains of this dog shit forever!! It'll be our mummies!!!! Inject it with formaldehyde!!!!
Nobody is getting dog shit DNA tested, id bet they do for bites though so the building can say they're not liable.
I lived in a building where the super would go around and get as many complaints as he could from people who let their dogs go in the lobby. He was great, the building got rid of him because he wanted the building owners to actually keep up the amenities promised to residents.

Hate to break it to you dude
And here I thought it was pretty common to have your children and pets DNA tested by your apartment manager. Hasn't this always been the case?
Well, I guess I was wrong.
I did not know this was a thing
It's also so they can charge you more money because your dog has pit bull DNA and which results in higher insurance premiums or similar bullshit.
