I don't think I am alone at being disgusted by the amount of dog excrement piled up on our pavements.

It seems to be a constant battle and most days my son and I play dodge the fresh dog mess. Do the council or police have any plans in place to tackle dog owners who allow their dogs to leave mess without clearing up behind them? Talk about antisocial behaviour!

Warnings and on the spot fines have been imposed for cycling on pavements so why not for these repeat offenders? They are giving responsible dog owners a bad name.

Of course the hardest part is catching them. I am yet to see one in action but when I do, I will be tempted to rub the dog owner's nose in it.
