Our streets are much cleaner since dog owners have been obliged to remove their pet’s mess and failure to do so can mean an on-the-spot fine of £50. But there are still some irresponsible dog owners who think they can get away with it on our greens where children play. No doubt because the unmade road and footways make the offence less obvious, there is also a problem in Ethelburt Avenue. It is not nice to find dog’s mess a few feet from your front door. So if you are a culprit: please take it home!
Of course Residents’ Association members may be entirely blameless and if so, we apologise for raising this matter here.
