I lived in France for 10 years, virtually nobody picked up waste from their pets. Just wasn't a cultural norm. Not necessarily that different in Italy or Spain as well.
Maybe the attitude is changing now, I don't know.

- Enginerrrd 6y agoTo be fair, the French men also routinely pee on buildings and alleys in public. Your observations of Spain puzzle me though. I always found the Spanish to be exceptionally festidious people with remarkably clean streets.
