Dog poo madness

1/3/2019

Comments

 
Some dog owners have a curious belief that it is OK to leave their pet's little offerings anywhere but in the bins provided. They must think that someone else will collect and dispose of their carefully wrapped deposits. Assuming that thinking takes place, of course. We frequently come across full dog poo bags suspended from trees and scrub, left on memorial benches and, in one case, placed carefully inside a hollow tree. This latest example was spotted close to the Ramblers Rest car park in full view of a disposal bin. The recent increase in the number of dogs allowed to be 'under control' of one person, with a corresponding rise in the large packs of animals exercised by commercial dog walkers, means that the problem will only get worse.
