SUMMER is finally upon us and about time too! But as we take to our parks and public places, unfortunately the sight of dog mess is still very common, which is giving dogs a bad name through no fault of their own.
During National Poop Scoop Week, June 14-20, we are promoting that it's every dog owner's duty to clean up after their dogs. It's really easy and quick and can be done with a simple plastic bag. Dog owners who don't do so can also risk a hefty fine which sometimes they don't realise.
So, please, please, pick up that poop!
