“Poop happens”

That’s the word from the Norwalk attorney M. Jeffry Spahr after finding out his city was being sued by Mahopac mom Kelly DeBrocky.
DeBrocky wants $100 from the city as compensation for having her day ruined (RUINED!!) by having to go through the horror that was her toddler stepping in dog poo in a parking lot near the aquarium.
She says her son’s $54 shoes were ruined and she wants to be reimbursed the aquarium and parking fees.
I don’t have children so I’m not even going to go into why a baby needs $54 shoes, but stepping in poo happens. A lot. I just did it last weekend. And you know what—I cleaned my shoes. I’m not suing my town (granted, it was my own dog’s poop I stepped in) and I’m not appearing in the local newspaper because of it.
And it could have been worse. You guys with dogs out there know what I’m talking about. The barefoot poo tromp. Oh yeah… There’s nothing like the feeling of dog poo squishing between your toes on a hot summer day.
