Dog crap laws are pretty much never enforced. Ever been to a dog park, absolutely disgusting. I have a dog and am hyper aware that it is my dog, no one elses. Its s^it is my problem and no one else should ever have to touch her crap.
The graveyard part of this is irrelevant to me other than negatively affecting someone else's stuff out of selfishness and laziness. It is up there with doing an illegal U-turn. It is saying "I made a mistake, I am lazy, and now all the rest of you need to do something to make this better for me, so fata you". It is out of the blue fataing with a complete stranger.
Her cleaning it up though, that goes a long way for me to the point of her photo should not have been posted. That makes her way better than a tonne of folks with dogs.

One of my first post-high school job was doing landscape maintenance for public parks in and around Vancouver. I did it for about 4 years, including summers to pay for school. I can't count the times that I wanted to strangle dogs and their owners when I would be weed whacking and would hit a sloppy dog turd only to get dog crap all over me... including in my mouth and ears. The worst was when people put it in a bag and throw it at the edge of the park anyway. On a hot summer week, it will rot in the bag and when you hit it, it explodes everywhere.
Some people (and I would argue people with slight mental illnesses) treat their dogs like humans and honestly see so problem bringing them everywhere that humans go and don't consider their "deeds" as dirty. I don't agree with it, but I don't think they need to be made public. We do need more enforcement of animal by-laws though. Only once have I ever witnessed someone getting fined, and that was for a leash offense.
