REGARDING your article 'Disabled ramp being used as dogs toilet' (LET, November 15), I do hope that Blackburn with Darwen Council take some action with regard to the irresponsibility of some dog owners who are allowing their dogs to foul the area around Mr Tom Lupton's home, thereby making his life more difficult than it already is.
I had reason to complain about the fouling in my own area and though I accept that it is difficult to catch the culprits, it is not impossible. Needless to say, the area is still used as a dog toilet, with warning notices simply ignored and nothing is done.
In the summer months, I spent time scraping up the mess left by dogs - I can do it, so why can't the dogs owners? The answer has to be that they don't care one way or the other.
Good luck Mr Lupton, keep the pressure up on the council - I do hope you succeed.
