Clean up after your....horse

Driving home in the past week I saw something that I hadn't seen before. I wish I wasn't in my car a few lanes from the sidewalk, otherwise I would have been able to share the image with you. Americans are very diligent in cleaning up after their pets. Unlike in the Netherlands, there are no dog droppings anywhere on the streets and sidewalks. All dog owners clean up after their pets and that's the way it should be. But how about your horse and what if you're a cop on a horse? That's what I saw the other day, a San Jose police officer dismounted his horse, pulled out a dust pan and started scooping up what his horse had just dropped on the sidewalk near the Santana Row shopping center. He then placed the horse manure in a plastic bag which he placed in his saddle bag. What can you say, San Jose finest sure clean up after their animals, giving the right example.
