SEATTLE - Seattle is the dog poop capitol of the U.S. and has among the worst-behaved dogs in the country, according to Twitter data compiled by the Dog Advisory Council.

The dog enthusiast website says there are no bad dogs, only bad owners. Their report collated geotagged Twitter data around the U.S. to find the major cities with the best and worst dog owners. Factors include complaints of dogs let off their leash, barking or howling at night, and the much-dreaded dog poop left on the ground.

According to their findings, Tucson, Arizona has a ‘Dog Owner Index Score’ of 9.3 out of 100, with the fewest complaints of poorly-behaved pups in the country.
