Poolman lives in Eastrbridge and will often walk his dog Hawkeye around the F-15 Park during his trips.  \u201cI like to walk around the park, see what\u2019s going on,\u201d said Poolman.  \u201cPlus, sometimes a friendly dog will come by to say hi to Hawkeye.\u201d  Poolman almost always enjoys his carefree walks with his dog, but sometimes he can get frustrated.\n<!--more-->\n\u201cEvery once in a while, I will have forgotten to bring extra bags, or Hawkeye is just a little too excited on a certain occasion,\u201d said Poolman.  \u201cOther times, I may have leant a bag to someone else at some point during my walk.  There is a bag dispenser at the park, but it seems like that damn thing is always empty.  Both of them.\u201d  Poolman is referring to the fact that the F-15 Park has two dog waste bag dispensers, and according to Poolman, oftentimes both are completely out of bags.  \u201cI will check one, and then run over to the other one to see if any are in there.   Sure enough, those goddamn things are empty more often than not.\u201d  Poolman says he thinks there should be a number you can call at the MCA to make sure they get refilled.  \u201cI always find someone to borrow a bag from, or even run home to get one,\u201d said Poolman.  \u201cBut it is really annoying.  There should be an email address or phone number on the dispenser to let them MCA know to come refill them ASAP.\u201d  MCA President Paul Harris says they do have the bags checked and refilled, but it doesn\u2019t mean there isn\u2019t a small window where they may not be filled.  \u201cWe do our best to get them all checked,\u201d said Harris.  \u201cBut, we have so many <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/pocket-park-rules-simplified\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pocket parks<\/a>, we can\u2019t make waste bag dispensers a priority.\u201d  Harris says the best thing for dog owners to do is to overpack.  \u201cMake sure to bring 10-15 bags with you,\u201d said Harris.  \u201cThat way, you should never run out.\u201d\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6372","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-128","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6372","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6372"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6372\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6372"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6372"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6372"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
