[Pharmwaste] Pharmwaste from Dog Parks?

[Nancy Busen]

I work with a dog rescue and the mere thought of this makes me smile. We
are pooper scoopers but I'm going to have to try to envision an
alternative for urine! Thanks for the day brightener!
 
We are however, working on a program for our county and ultimately the
state of Arkansas to get the unused pharms out of circulation.
 
Let me know how it works out with the dogs.

Subject: [Pharmwaste] Pharmwaste from Dog Parks?


Does anyone know of any environmental or pharmaceutical testing at dog
parks or dog runs.  I am working on dog park regulations and since dogs
are probably the second most medicated species (everything from
antibiotics to Prozac) - it seems prudent to recommend the appropriate
disposal of urine in dog parks, rather then letting it flow untreated
into steams and rivers.  Any pointers would be much appreciated.
