I AM writing with regard to the amount of dog fouling that still seems as bad as ever despite recent attempts by the council and the media to publicise the problem.

I am particularly concerned about an area near my home, namely Conway Ave, St George's Ave, etc, although I think it is fair to say most of the Fylde is affected.

Today I confronted a woman who let her dog foul the pavement outside my son's school on St George's Avenue. Her couldn't-care -less attitude shows that a few prominently erected signs on lamp-posts are not going to discourage people like her from offending again.

Can anyone possibly tell me just how many dog owners have been fined for this offence in say the last 12 months?

It is a rhetorical question of course but one that clearly makes my point.

Please may we have some action before we all drown in the stuff.

M Harwood,

St Andrews Ave,

Thornton Cleveleys.
