Dog Fouling
Dog mess is an eyesore and a health hazard. If you are a dog owner, you have a legal duty to clean up every time your dog messes in a public place.Registered blind people are not required to clean up after their guide dogs. There is also exemption for dog owners on some kinds of public land, including:
- Rural common land
- Land that is predominantly marshland, moor or heath
- Highways with a speed limit of 50mph or more
Please – ALWAYS clean up after your dog when walking the Public Footpaths.
ALWAYS – clean up after your dog when on farmland with grazing animals.
In locations with no dog waste bins you can bag it and place in a normal general waste bin.
