Summary

In busy cities, dog owners sometimes forget to pick up after their dogs, creating health risks and mess. This project tested reminders that are friendly, visible, and effective.

The Problem

Owners forget bags or get distracted. Typical signs are ignored. We needed a memorable, positive nudge that people would actually notice and respond to.
